Well Child Care

Seeing children and parents at regular intervals is an important element in maintaining your child's health.

Evaluating growth and development, discussing safety, nutrition, behavior and answering age related questions are the functions of all well visits.

At this time we do not offer pre-natal consultations.

At this time we do not offer pre-natal consultations.

We encourage advance scheduling of well childcare visits.

For infants and toddlers please schedule your next check up at the end of your visit. Otherwise, we suggest you call 6-8 weeks ahead of the time you wish to be seen.

Sick Child Care

At this time we do not have walk-in hours.

We will see sick children on the same day whenever possible with appointments. Please call after 8:30 am to schedule an appointment. Appointments cannot be scheduled before the office opens at 8:30 am.

The appointment time for sick children is shorter than for the well child visits. However, if your child is already scheduled for a well child visit, but happens to be sick, we can still do the checkup. If you have additional sick siblings, please call ahead so that we can accommodate you.

After Hours Care

When our office is closed, the answering service will answer when you call our main number: 212 874-4500.

After hours calls are for PEDIATRIC EMERGENCIES only. Please call with routine questions during regular office hours.

The service will reach the doctor or nurse practitioner on call who will return your call. Please let the service know if you have a TRUE PEDIATRIC EMERGENCY. Reminder, please do not call after hours with routine questions.

If possible, it is best to call before 8:00 p.m. If your child needs medication, it is difficult to get a prescription filled after 8:00 p.m.

Have the phone number of your pharmacy handy and disable your caller ID block.
