Appointments & Referrals
Patients are scheduled by appointments only. Appointments can be made by calling during office hours. We schedule check-up appointments three months in advance. It is always best to schedule your appointments as far in advance as possible so we can arrange appointments that are convenient for your busy schedule.
If you have an ill child, you may have him/her seen that day. it is best to call early in the morning so that we may accommodate your scheduling needs.

Our staff answers the phones from 8:30 A.M. to 5:00 P.M. The phones are with our answering service from 12:00 to 1:00 P.M.

If you are unable to keep your well appointments, please give 24 hours notice. If you are unable to come to your sick appointment, please call ahead, as we can fill that slot with another ill child.
Billing & Insurance
We are providers for most insurance plans however, we encourage you to check with your own
insurance plan for coverage.  Please bring your current insurance card to every appointment. All copays are your responsibility and are required at the time of service.  For your convenience, we accept cash, debit cards, Visa, MasterCard and Discover credit cards.

Flu Vaccine Recommendation:
Riverside Pediatrics recommends all children be vaccinated against the Influenza virus (the "Flu"). For children 2 years old and over who do not have asthma or certain other health conditions, we strongly recommend the live intranasal flu vaccine (flu mist). We have both the mist and the shot available at our office.
