Welcome to All About Kids Pediatrics

All About Kids Pediatrics is a small practice with pediatric providers who are also moms. We want to know you and your child and we will strive to take the drama out of doctor visits. We are “vaccine friendly”, which means our pediatricians make an extra commitment to provide extensive counseling on vaccines and to accommodate all requests and concerns in regard to vaccines.

ALL ABOUT KIDS PEDIATRICS IS CURRENTLY ACCEPTING NEW PATIENTS, NEWBORNS UP TO AGE 16.
PLEASE CALL THE OFFICE DIRECTLY FOR MORE INFORMATION ON REGISTERING NEW PATIENTS.

Effective 10/03/2022, providers will no longer address any concerns outside of preventive care during a well child checkup. This change is due to various constraints imposed upon our office by insurance companies.

If you have concerns about your child that need to be addressed at the time of your visit, you will have two options:

  1. Change the appointment to a sick visit to address the concerns
  2. Continue with the well child check-up and schedule another visit, in-person or virtual (if possible), later in the week.

Please know that meeting your child’s needs whether it is sick care or well care is of the utmost importance.  You decide which service you will receive, unfortunately, it cannot be both on the same day. Many insurance companies have implemented policies designed to flag and “review,” often denying, claims for preventive care when billed in conjunction with sick care. This may, in turn, leave parents with unexpected and sometimes large balances resulting from these types of encounters.

Please know that this change is very difficult for us, and we understand that it will be difficult for you too. We ask for your understanding and patience as we make this transition.
