Just give our office a call on the day you'd like to bring your child in and we will do our best to fit you in at a time that works for you!
  • How do I know when my child can go back to school?
    Good question! The answer for this will vary with each child and illness; however, here are some general guidelines as to when a child is free to return to their regular child care. Also, feel free to take a look at our Common Illnesses and Symptoms page to get a sense of when your child may need to be seen in the office to assess.
  • Why am I getting so many reminders?
    Reminders go out for a number of reasons: 1. You are due for a well visit. 2. You need to confirm your scheduled visit. 3. You have an outstanding balance.
  • Do you accept walk-ins?
    No, we do not accept walk-ins. We are happy to schedule same-day sick visits, but please call our office at 212-781-0400 to schedule a visit.
  • How do I request a form?
    We know forms are very important for enrolling your child in school or camp! In order for us to fill out a form, your child must have had a well visit within the past year. To request a form, please either bring the form with you to your child's well visit, or give our office a call and let us know which form you are requesting. The forms we have on file can be found here, but otherwise you will need to email, fax, or bring a hard copy of the form you'd like filled out. Forms can usually only be filled out if your child is up to date on their well visit schedule. All forms must be looked over by a doctor, and typically take between 5-7 business days to complete. There is also a $5 charge for completing forms. Click here for more information on our form policy!
