Phone Calls - During Office Hours

We have an excellent staff of RNs available 8:30 am - 5:30 pm, Monday - Thursday and 8:30 am - 6:00 pm Friday, to be able to answer your questions about common problems. More serious problems are discussed with the Pediatrician and then the RN will review the advice with you. This system allows the quickest response to your calls.

PLEASE NOTE the RNs cannot prescribe antibiotics over the phone - no exceptions.
If you or the RN feels your child may need antibiotics, a same day sick appointment can be made to bring your child into the office to see the doctor.
