We ask that all new families read our policies before the first visit. It contains descriptions of our appointment, insurance, financial, and referral, form, and prescription re-fill policies.
Compassion Pediatrics strongly enforces our 10 Minute Rule. If you arrive 10 minutes or more late for your Well Child Appointment you will be rescheduled. The reason for this rule is to keep as close to the schedule as possible. Please be courteous to those who are scheduled after your visit by arriving on time.
Cancellations need to be made as soon as possible. If the cancellations is not at least 24 hours prior to the appointment it is considered a no show.
Our current vaccine policy allows parents to have the flexibility to alter the schedule they would prefer, but yet requires that all the children be vaccinated by 5 years of age.

Thank you for making an appointment with Compassion Pediatrics Lactation services. When you and your baby are being seen by the lactation consultant, you will also be registered as a patient of our practice. This is because the lactation consultant will be making medical recommendations for both of you. We will attempt to bill your insurance company for your portion of the visit. Depending on your child’s insurance plan, you may also be responsible for any co-payments, deductible, and/or co-insurances

Physical exams for school or camp forms are valid for one year. If your child has not had a physical within one year, please schedule one as soon as possible. Note that from April through September we get busy with camp and school physical appointments, so try to schedule an appointment as soon as possible, particularly if your child is behind on his/her well child visit.

If additional forms are requested, they are $5/piece and requested by emailing info@compassionpeds.com.
Sport forms not completed at the time of physical are $10. Forms dropped off have a 72 hours turn around.
