Well Care and Physicals
- Request Well Care appointments via the
Patient Portal, at any time, from any internet device.
- Well visits, especially from infancy through
the pre-school years are important. They allow us to assess
your child’s growth and development, and regularly immunize.
More importantly, they provide a time to discuss your questions
and concerns and help prepare you for future developmental
stages and routine illnesses.
- Scheduling physical exam appointments in
advance will allow you to choose the physician and appointment
time which is most convenient for you.
- We make every effort to honor all time
commitments and we request that you extend the same courtesy.
If you are more than 15 minutes late for a scheduled physical
exam appointment, we may reschedule the appointment for a later
date.
- As a rule, we only schedule two physical exam
appointments together per family, per day. However, if you have
triplets less than 18 months old, we will see them together.
- As a courtesy, our offices
will confirm all physical exam appointments 48 hours in
advance. If you must cancel your appointment, you must call at
least 24 hours in advance, or you will be assessed a $35 missed
appointment fee.
- Regular well-child exams are routinely
scheduled at two weeks, four weeks, than at 2, 4, 6, 9, 12,15,
18, 24, and 36 months. After that exams are scheduled yearly.
- Please note, for physicals made from
12 months and over, visits must be on or after the child’s
birthday due to immunization schedules and insurance company
rules.
Sports/Camp Physicals
- Most facilities accept a physical within the
past year. In order for us to complete these forms your child
must have had a physical here within the last year. If not,
please contact our office to schedule one.
