When your child is sick, we make timely diagnoses and provide thorough treatment plans to relieve symptoms and get them back to health. First, we conduct a careful history and examination tailored to the illness, ordering any needed testing such as strep screens, flu tests, or imaging. We utilize point-of-care testing in-house for rapid results. Once we’ve completed the full clinical assessment, you will understand the diagnosis and next steps:
For common infections, we prescribe appropriate antibiotics or antivirals to target the illness. We educate on correct medication dosages and administration along with managing fever, hydration and pain levels to keep your child comfortable while fighting infection. Unless needing IV fluids or inpatient monitoring, most illnesses can then be managed at home using our care instructions. We are available 24/7 for advice if worries arise.
For complex, serious or unusual pediatric conditions, we coordinate specialized care with children’s hospitals, pediatric specialists, therapists and other resources in the community relevant to your child’s needs. We assist families through referrals and care navigation at every point, providing continuity.
No matter what illness has emerged, our providers develop customized treatment plans to explain the diagnosis, outline medication usage, provide at-home management techniques, screen for complications, and schedule necessary follow-ups to ensure your child’s swift, thorough recovery. Each member of our staff aims to ease distress and provide exemplary care to return your child to excellent health. Just call anytime questions or concerns come up!
