| Our
office is open six days a week. Routine business such as scheduling
appointments, prescription refills, test results, etc. should be conducted
during the usual office hours. Evening hours are available for routine
as well as sick visits. Saturday morning hours are usually reserved
for sick visits. Hours are scheduled to avoid, if possible, having
sick and well children in the waiting room at the same time. Because
of sick children, we require no smoking in the office.
Emergencies
& After Hours
In case of an emergency with your child, contact our office. If
it is after hours, your call will be forwarded to our answering
service which will reach the pediatrician on call. If the emergency
is of a nature that demands immediate treatment, proceed to the
emergency room at the nearest hospital. The hospital will inform
us of your visit.
We do
provide 24 hour coverage. After hours, a call to our office will
be forwarded to our answering service. The answering service will
then reach us. If you do not receive a return call in 20 minutes,
please call again.
