How Do I Become a New Patient?
Having a baby? Thinking about transferring care?
To become a new patient, please complete the New Patient Forms available on our website. Once your forms are submitted, contact our reception team so they can assist you with scheduling your first appointment.
If you are expecting, simply let the hospital where you deliver know that we are your chosen pediatrician — all four of our pediatricians are currently accepting new patients. After your baby is born, be sure to complete the New Patient Forms before scheduling their first appointment.
Our Goal is to Provide the Best Medical Care
Our goal is to provide the highest quality medical care for your child. To ensure our providers have the information they need, we require a full review of your child’s previous medical records before assuming care. Our reception team is happy to assist you in completing a medical records release form so we can obtain all necessary records from your previous physician. Please note that we must have these records on file before we can schedule your child’s appointment.
After Transferring Paperwork
Once the records are received, we will review them to determine if they are complete or sufficient for us to begin caring for your children. Unfortunately, we cannot treat or provide any care for your children until that time.
Please be aware that under federal (HIPAA) and state laws, your previous medical provider may charge a "reasonable, cost-based fee" to copy your children's medical records. This cost is your responsibility. This fee may be waived if records are sent directly to our office.
For Newborns
For New Families Transferring To Us
Bringing a newborn to a new pediatric practice can be a prudent decision to ensure comprehensive care and support for your child's lifelong health. It allows for establishing a rapport with the healthcare providers early on, fostering a sense of familiarity and trust crucial for ongoing care.
When transferring a child to a new pediatric practice, it's essential to gather and organize all medical records, including vaccination records and any relevant test results. Communicate with both the current and new pediatric practices to ensure a smooth transition of care, providing necessary information about the child's medical history and ongoing treatments.
