After-Hours Care

For urgent matters that cannot wait until business hours, our office provides an after-hours emergency triage service (4:30pm–8:00am) for cases where a parent or caregiver needs to speak with a registered nurse for medical advice. There is a charge of $25 for this service that is not covered by insurance.

For all other routine calls such as medication refills, dosing questions, etc. please call during our regularly scheduled hours.

Many health insurance companies have their own nurse advice line. Please check the back of your insurance card/policy for details.
