Appointments
To help provide timely service to our patients, we prefer to schedule all visits.
If you are later than 15 minutes for your appointment, we will try to work you back into the schedule, or perhaps offer an appointment to you with another provider.
Out of courtesy to our other patients, we may be forced to ask you to reschedule your appointment. We understand emergencies can happen and we will try to be flexible when lateness is the result of things out of your control.
After Hours
The doctors take emergency calls from their homes after hours.
From 10 pm-6 am our nurse triage service will assist you and if needed connect you to the on-call physician.
We encourage you to leave a message about routine questions (mild illness, appointments, and prescription refills) which we will address in the morning.
Well Visits
We believe in providing high quality well child care to promote safety, and health while providing careful examinations, immunizations, screening, and anticipatory guidance about normal development and behavior.

Emergencies
IF AN EMERGENCY SHOULD ARISE, PLEASE CALL 911!
Emergencies are considered to be those conditions that are life-threatening: loss of consciousness, severe bleeding, seizure, etc.
In the case of minor emergencies (lacerations, cuts, mild fractures, sprains), please call our office first for instructions.
Patients who walk in with an emergency will be cared for immediately.
Walk-Ins
Patients who walk in with a non-emergent condition will be fit into the schedule at the earliest time possible.
This sometimes requires returning a short time later when there is an opening in the schedule.
Sick Visits
We make every effort to schedule appointments for sick or injured children on the day that you call us. Please call our office ahead of time so that we can minimize the time that you will spend waiting.
