Sick Visits

Children are prone to many illnesses. Often they have disturbing symptoms and extreme discomfort. Since most of us are parents ourselves, we can relate and have significant concern for sick children. We will see sick children as a priority and work you in our schedule as quickly as possible.

Helpful Information You Can Provide

• Your child’s name and age.
• Symptoms (example – vomiting, diarrhea, cough, etc.) and their duration.
• Current temperature.
• What change, if any, has occurred in your child’s condition.
• What treatment has been tried.
• If you have spoken to any staff members or physicians about the problem in the past few days.

When possible, please call early in the day if you wish your child to be seen for a sick visit. We can usually see a sick patient the same day if we have enough notice.
