Common Ailments

There is no substitute for an in-person, hands-on physical exam and detailed medical history. But all too often kids decide to get sick in the middle of the night or on the weekend, when the doctor’s office is closed. For after-hour questions, we are there for our patients—you can always page the on-call doctor by calling one of the main numbers. Either I or one of my amazing colleagues will return your call immediately. We will then figure out together if this is a medical emergency that warrants an emergency department visit or whether we can find a way to make your child feel better until the morning.

My chart messages may not be checked after hours, or on the weekends, so do call if you are worried after hours, as we are always on call for you.
