For your child’s appointment, please arrive 20 minutes early to complete paperwork and/or your insurance or financial status changes.
Forms
It helps us better facilitate your appointment if you complete all required forms before arrival.
Please carefully complete our medical forms and provide a complete medical history for your child. You can download, print and bring the required forms with you.
Prepare your child for the visit as much as possible.
If you know what the appointment will involve, tell your child in advance that he or she is going to the doctor and what will be done during the visit.
Insurance
Bring identification, such as a driver’s license and a current copy of the insurance card that covers your child. For a list of accepted insurance plans, please click here.
Medications
Bring a list of all medications your child is taking, including over-the-counter and prescription drugs, and include the dosage and strength for each.
Medical records/immunizations
For our providers to provide the best care coordination for your child, it is very important we receive comprehensive health information about your child’s past and current health.
Please bring all of your child’s previous medical records and request that any additional records from previous providers are sent to our office. These include immunization records, growth charts, medical diagnosis notes, etc.
Also, it is very important to update us on any medical care your child currently receives outside of our office. If your child is treated elsewhere, please request that all reports, including urgent care or emergency center summaries, X-rays and laboratory results, are sent to our office.
Note taking
Write down any questions or concerns you have for the pediatrician and bring them with you.
If your child is sick, record any symptoms he or she is having, including when they started and their frequency.
Take notes. Writing down instructions or advice will help you remember them later.
