how soon is your pediatrician available for an appointment?

Question

Is it faster to get your child seen than an adult? I just wonder because somethings can't wait weeks when it comes to babies.

Answer

If needed I can get them in same day. 
Otherwise it'll be the next day. 
They're also open all weekend.

Answer

Mine has special walk-in hours in the am for emergencies. They're great. Shop around.

Answer

If it's for illness, they always get me in the same day. For the regular wellness checks, I have to schedule about two weeks out.

Answer

Same day for sick appointments, next day for other concerns. An office with Saturday hours was a big thing we looked for when choosing a ped for our first as well!

Answer

Depends on the pediatrician. My friend has a hell of a time getting apts. Ours is semi-concierge and is usually available same day due to keeping a small client base and having multiple doctors available.   If you're having a lot of trouble and are going to a solo practice doctor, consider switching to a practice with multiple pediatricians.

Answer

My baby isn't here yet but my friends are usually able to get their babies in the next day if they're sick, and make the other appointments in advance. If you can't get yours in soon I'd just go to an urgent care clinic

Answer

Yes if there is illness they will fit you in.
