\n\t\tAppointment Scheduling\n\t<\/h2>\n\t

We schedule appointments from 8:00 a.m. to 5:00 p.m. Monday through Friday and Saturday mornings. Saturdays are reserved for acute sick patients and emergencies. Appointments can be requested through the patient portal or by calling our office at extension 1. Routine physical examinations and problems of long duration should be scheduled well in advance. Our staff attempts to see all patients with minimal wait time, however, we ask for your patience in accommodating medical emergencies and busy days. Please call ahead for same-day appointments so a scheduled time can be given to you. During the school year, we have after-hour appointments available for acute sick visits from 5:00 p.m. to 7:00 p.m. An after-hour fee will be added to the office visit for evenings, holidays, and Saturdays. Patients who are late for their appointments may have to be rescheduled. If you are unable to keep an appointment, please call as soon as possible so that we may give that appointment to a patient needing it. A charge may be incurred for appointments missed or not canceled within a reasonable time. <\/p>\n

All patients under the age of 18 must be accompanied by a parent or legal guardian.<\/b><\/p>\n

Office Hours:<\/b><\/p>\n

Monday-Friday: 8:00 a.m. – 5:00 p.m.<\/p>\n

After Hours:<\/b><\/p>\n

Monday-Thursday 5:00 p.m. – 7:00 p.m.<\/p>\n

Every Saturday 7:30 a.m. – 11:30 a.m.<\/p>\n

Physical Examinations<\/b><\/p>\n

Routine physical examinations recommended by the American Academy of Pediatrics are encouraged by our providers for general health maintenance and education as well as disease prevention. These appointments should be scheduled 6-8 weeks in advance, especially at the time of year when school, camp, and sports physicals are in high demand. A sports physical should NOT replace your child’s well exam. It is not a comprehensive exam and doesn’t cover all the issues that are routinely addressed during an annual exam, such as vaccines and mental health screenings.<\/b><\/p>\n

Routine physicals<\/a> as recommended by the AAP are scheduled as follows:<\/p>\n

2 weeks<\/p>\n

2 months<\/p>\n

4 months<\/p>\n

6 months<\/p>\n

9 months<\/p>\n

12 months<\/p>\n

15 months<\/p>\n

18 months<\/p>\n

24 months<\/p>\n

30 months<\/p>\n

36 months<\/p>\n

Annually after age 3<\/p>\n
