Congratulations!
Having a baby is one of the most exciting times in your life. Nothing is more rewarding than the privilege of caring for this new life and providing an environment in which both you and your child will thrive and develop. Choosing the pediatrician that can best care for your child is an important decision. At Los Alamitos Pediatrics we share your joy and enthusiasm and look forward to the opportunity in partnering with you on the exciting journey of raising a child.
What is a pediatrician?
A pediatrician is a physician whose specific specialty is caring for children from birth to 18 years of age. Pediatricians address acute and chronic illnesses, learning disabilities, behavioral issues and the growth and development of children. Our goal is to help ensure that children grow into mentally and physical healthy, productive and happy adults.
Getting Acquainted
Please feel free to call our office if you have additional questions about us. Or, if you prefer, call today to schedule a prenatal, “get acquainted” meeting.
Upon Arrival
After you have selected one of our doctors as your pediatrician, and you are admitted into the hospital for delivery, please let the hospital staff know your pediatrician is with Los Alamitos Pediatrics. One of our rounding physicians will come and see you while you are in the hospital and provide you with further instructions on when to schedule your first appointment.
Upon discharge, please contact our office about scheduling your baby’s first visit to our office. Please print out and complete the new patient forms and bring them and your insurance card, along with any paperwork given to you at the hospital, to your first visit.
We look forward to meeting you and watching your child grow.
