WHAT TO EXPECT
At Cornerstone Pediatrics, we strive to create a warm, safe, and friendly environment for our patients and their families. From the moment you step through our door, you will be treated with kindness and professionalism.
​
During your visit, we will provide the following services:
​
-
A complete physical exam
-
Developmental assessment (DDST)
-
Evaluation of and treatment for common illnesses
-
Health education and developmental, nutritional, behavioral, and parenting guidance
Throughout our entire intake and examination process, we will make sure to answer questions, provide information and calm any fears or concerns. We strive to foster strong relationships with our patients and their families because to us, your child isn’t just a name on a chart, they are part of the Cornerstone Pediatrics family.
​
During our initial prenatal visit, we begin by getting to know the parents. We will answer any questions and provide you with information on what you can anticipate after your child is born. We will also work with you to set up a regular appointment schedule so that we can help your baby thrive.
​
As your child grows, well-child checkups will become the first line of defense. From pre-pubescence to the teen years, your pediatrician will monitor growth and development, provide recommending screenings and immunizations, and supply expert guidance and the latest health information.
TIPS FOR SUCCESFUL VISIT
To help us spend more time with your child, and less time tracking down paperwork or readjusting appointments, we ask that you plan ahead and schedule routine examinations in advance. Please have all your insurance paperwork available, along with immunization records, digital records, and your insurance card and photo identification. You can also find our intake forms on our website, or print them out via the patient portal.
​
A note about insurance: While insurance and Medicaid generally cover routine well-child checkups, having up to date information on your coverage will help us manage any unexpected charges, changes in co-pays or other issues.
​
Finally, promptness is appreciated! The doctor and his team make every effort to see all patients on time, with minimal waiting. To ensure our office runs smoothly, and that everyone gets enough time with their caregiver, we ask that you arrive at your designated appointment time, or notify us as soon as possible if you are late or unable to honor your appointment. In preparation for the exam, please dress your child in comfortable, loose-fitting clothing.
