The goal of a sick child visit is to quickly diagnose the problem and start treatment that will help your child feel more comfortable. In addition to reviewing your child’s symptoms and medical history, a sick visit may include blood tests, a urine test, and a physical exam that includes checking your child’s heart, neck, throat, and ears.
Ill visits treat many types of injuries and illnesses that need same-day or next-day medical care. If you are unsure if you need advice, an appointment at our office, or to be seen at an urgent care or emergency department, please call our office and our triage nurses will assist you. In case of emergency, please call 911. For poison control, please call 1-800-222-1222.
The following are some of the most common conditions treated during sick visits:
Our office is able to test for certain infections like strep throat, influenza, COVID-19, RSV bronchiolitis, mononucleosis, or urinary tract infections.

You can schedule same-day sick visits any time the office is open. Certain sick visits can be Self-Scheduled at any time.
