Practice news:
 

We are a dedicated, dynamic, collaborative, kind, and compassionate group of pediatric providers that proudly provide comprehensive pediatric primary care to newborns through late adolescence. We manage all aspects of well child care as well as most chronic medical conditions and acute problems. Many procedures can be done right in our office including immunizations, sutures, splinting, wart treatments, fluoride varnish, and much more.

 

We utilize the latest technology to streamline the complexities of modern medical care as much as possible. We encourage our families to use our patient portal to communicate with the office, request medication refills, access medical records, and ask questions directly to their provider. We offer online sick visit scheduling, digital check-in, and telehealth video visits when appropriate. We utilize various digital developmental screening tools and health assessment questionnaires, and have connectivity with Delaware’s immunization registry, health records, and newborn screenings.

In addition, although we are an independent practice, we have an excellent relationship with Beebe Healthcare and ready access to specialty care at Nemours Delaware Children’s Hospital.

 

Our patient's safety is of utmost importance to us, so we redesigned our office to minimize the risk of infection.

We no longer have a waiting room! Patients are brought directly from the front entrance to an exam room.

We have separate entrances and areas of the office to see our well and sick children.

 

 

Masks are required in our office for everyone 2 years old and up to protect our most vulnerable patients from COVID-19 and other illnesses, including those that are too young to be immunized or are immunocompromised.

We love taking care of our patients, and look forward to seeing you here soon!

Why a Pediatrician?

Pediatricians are trained to help you achieve healthy lifestyles for your child, offer advice to prevent illness and injuries, provide early and appropriate care of acute illness to prevent its progression, treat life-threatening childhood conditions and guide you in anticipating your child's needs from birth through late adolescence.

As part of our extensive training, pediatricians are experienced in the physical, emotional and social development of children. Children may be too young or shy to talk when they are seen at the doctor's office, and we understand the importance of listening carefully to your child and to you. We do our best to answer your questions or find you the answers and to help you to understand and promote your

child's health and development. We also address issues affecting a child's family and home environment.

Most importantly, we understand that children are not simply small adults. Children often present with different symptoms from adults and may need different prescriptions or treatments too.
