Appointments are for your benefit, they minimize your waiting time. If more than one child is to be seen, please set up an appointment for each child.
We ask that you notify the office as soon as possible if you are unable to keep an appointment. Twenty-four hour notice is appreciated as it allows the time to be used to meet the needs of other patients. Missed appointments hinder your child’s health care as well as others. Frequent no-show offenses may jeopardize your relationship with our practice.
If your child’s illness or injury is life-threatening, call 911.
Otherwise, for urgent matters that cannot wait until regular office hours, call our answering service at (918) 747-7544. They will page one of our pediatricians.
If you don’t hear from us in half an hour, please call back. Messages are sometimes relayed incorrectly. If desired, you can leave a message on our voice mail. Messages are reviewed the morning of the next office day.
Should an emergency arise during office hours please call us directly. After office hours, contact us through the answering service as above. Tell the operator that you have an emergency. Your call will be handled immediately.
If time permits it is best to call us before rushing your child to an emergency room or minor emergency center. We can then advise you on the best course of action.
We firmly believe in the effectiveness of vaccines to prevent serious illness and to save lives.
We firmly believe in the safety of our vaccines.
We firmly believe that all children and young adults should receive all of the recommended vaccines according to the schedule published by the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention and the American Academy of Pediatrics.
We firmly believe, based on all available literature, evidence, and current studies, that vaccines do not cause autism or other developmental disabilities.
We firmly believe that thimerosal, a preservative that has been in vaccines for decades and remains in some vaccines, does not cause autism or other developmental disabilities.
We firmly believe that vaccinating children and young adults may be the single most important health promoting intervention we perform as Pediatricians, and that you can perform as parents/caregivers. The recommended vaccines and the vaccine schedule are the results of years and years of scientific study and data gathering on millions of children by thousands of our brightest scientists and physicians.
As medical professionals, we feel strongly that vaccinating children on schedule with currently available vaccines is absolutely the right thing to do for all children and young adults. Thank you for your time in reading this policy, and please feel free to discuss any questions or concerns you may have about vaccines with any one of us.
Finally, if you should absolutely refuse to vaccinate your child despite all our efforts, we may ask you to find another health care provider who shares your views. We do not keep a list of such providers, nor would we recommend any such health care provider. Please recognize that by not vaccinating you are putting your child at an unnecessary risk for life-threatening illness and disability, and even death.
Requests for routine medication and refills on prescriptions should be made during office hours when we have access to your records. It is helpful for you to know the name and number of your pharmacy so we can call in the prescription. Routine, non-emergency prescriptions will not be refilled after office hours.
Please note: ADD/ADHD medication refills may take up to 3 business days. To refill these medications:
