Each child to be seen by a doctor will need to have their own appointment. We reserve time every morning, late afternoon and early evening for sick children who need to be seen right away. If your child becomes ill and needs to be seen by a physician, please, if at all possible, call our office between 8:00 am and 9:30 am for a morning appointment, and before 6:00 pm for an evening appointment. Sick children can normally be seen within 12-24 hours. To schedule a well exam appointment, please call our office during office hours. Please call early to schedule an appointment, as we schedule well exams 4 months in advance. The length of your appointment will depend on the reason your child is here to see us. A well-baby or well-child exam will last approximately 15 minutes, and a sick-child visit will last approximately 10 minutes. A consultation or complicated problem will require more time. Please let us know if you’ll require more time. If we have not seen your child before, please bring your child’s immunization record and any other pertinent medical records that you may have. If you have any question about your child’s health, please feel free to bring a written list of questions that we can discuss during the visit. This will maximize the benefit of your visit with us. lf you are unable to keep your appointment for any reason, please notify us, preferably at least 24 hours in advance, so that someone else can take advantage of that appointment time. Without 24 hour notification, there is a risk of incurring a fee. When to Use the Emergency Room Telephone Calls Many questions or concerns about your child can be handled over the telephone. The first step in getting advice on how to care for your child is knowing when and how to call your pediatrician. ln order to get the greatest benefit from your call, please follow these suggestions: For routine (non-emergency) questions, please try to call during office hours. One of our receptionists will answer your call. Please give your name, your child’s name and age, and your main question or concern. Your call will be returned later that day by a nurse or doctor. lf you are calling about an emergency, please state “This is an emergency” as soon as the receptionist answers the phone. An emergency is considered to be a serious accident, injury or poisoning, bleeding that cannot be stopped, unconsciousness, severe breathing difficulties, convulsions, and sharp abdominal pain lasting more than two hours, a black or bloody bowel movement in an infant, or a child who appears or acts severely ill. lf your child is sick, always try to take the child’s temperature before calling for advice. When you call our office, have a pencil and paper ready to write down the instructions that the doctor or nurse gives you. Have the number of your pharmacy on hand so that the doctor or nurse can order a prescription if necessary. Our nurses are trained to answer most of your questions, but we will be happy to return your call if you wish to speak directly to a doctor. We return calls periodically during the day – before lunch, before dinner, and after 8:00 pm. lf your child becomes seriously ill after office hours or on a holiday.
