• Children with ADD/ADHD require a doctor’s visit every six months.
  
• Physical exams need to be scheduled in advance.  Because visits may be longer or more detailed to discuss progress and medications and school performance, there are a limited number of ADD/ADHD checkup slots and they do fill up quickly.  If your schedule is limited, calling two months in advance is strongly recommended.
  
• Planning ahead for prescription refills by calling a week in advance is also recommended.  Prescriptions will not be refilled without a minimum three days notice.  This allows our doctor to review your child’s record and verify updated checkups.
  
• If checkups are not done at the appropriate time, medications will not be refilled and you will be contacted to set up an appointment.
  
• Please contact your insurance plan to learn of the particulars of coverage for these conditions.  They may not be covered when provided by our physicians.
