Same-Day Visits

When your child is sick, it is our goal to see your child on the same day you call. Please call as soon as you know you would like your child to be seen.

We are a small clinic so we cannot answer every call when it comes in. If you leave us a message, we will call you back with an appointment as soon as we can. Sometimes we experience a high volume of calls—like on Monday mornings or during flu season.

While each child and individual wellness visit is unique, there are common threads that run through urgent medical care for children.

Typical Concerns/Symptoms for Same Day Visits:

• Nausea, vomiting, and diarrhea persist for two days or more
• A fever is higher than 103 degrees (six months and older)
• You have concerns about your diabetic child's blood sugars
• Your asthmatic child seems to need a breathing treatment
• Your child has an allergic reaction (hives, difficulty breathing)
• A laceration may require sutures or you wonder if a bone is broken
• Your child may need a quick diagnostic test (a swab sample for strep throat)
• Your child needs follow-up after an ER visit (suture and bandage removal)
