Appointments

To help provide timely service to our patients, we prefer to schedule all visits. If you are later than 10 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.

Did you know regular well child visits are one of the most important things you can do to keep your child healthy? Well child visits also provide you with the opportunity to discuss any questions or concerns you may have about your child’s health.

Your child should have a well child visit at the intervals listed below. We recommend that you call our office 3 months in advance to schedule an appointment with your child's primary care provider on the date that best fits your needs.

We make every effort to schedule appointments for sick children with their primary care provider on the day that your child is sick. Please call our office ahead of time so that we can minimize the time that you will spend waiting.

If you have a medical emergency during office hours, we will do our best to see your child immediately or refer you to the appropriate facility.

Here's how it works: First your Primary Care Provider still has same day sick appointments available each day. So if you want to see your regular provider make sure that you call to schedule an appointment. However, if you aren't sure what time will work best for you, then you have the option of walking in. When you come for a walk-in appointment you have to understand that:

A.  You may not be seeing your regular provider. 

B.  You will see who is scheduled during that time to take the walk-in patients and it may change once you are in a room depending on which provider becomes available sooner.

C.  Your wait may also be a little bit longer.

D.  We still value your time and our goal is always to stay as on time as we possibly can but will always put our patients with scheduled appointments first.

We know that you appreciate that when you have a scheduled appointment so we ask that you respect that when you walk-in as well.

As always our walk-in appointments are available for your convenience for Urgent Concerns and are great for colds, fevers, stitches, or broken bones. However, appointments are still needed for Well Care, Behavior Concerns, and Chronic Issues.

If you have any questions about what would be appropriate for a walk-in appointment please call our office at 970-619-8139.
