The cornerstone of child care

Sick Visits

At Goldfish Pediatrics we offer same day in-office appointments and virtual/telemedicine in lieu of office visits when appropriate and safe.

We do everything possible to prevent the inconvenience and stress of a visit to the emergency room by scheduling same-day appointments if your child is suffering from, for example:

Persistent pain such as sore throat, severe headache, abdominal pain
Earache or discharge from the ear
Cough, wheezing or other respiratory challenges
Vomiting and/or diarrhea
Thick eye discharge and/or red eyes
Stiff neck
Any illness that worsens or goes on for more than three days
Fever, particularly lasting 3 days or longer

In the event that a same-day appointment is not medically necessary, we will set you up with an appointment the following day.

From babies to adolescents

Virtual Visit / Telemedicine

Recently, as a precaution during this COVID era, Goldfish Pediatrics will require a provider to first conduct a screening by phone or video in order to determine the necessity and safety of an in-person versus remote visit. We hope you understand we are keeping you and our staff as safe as possible by implementing such protocols and apologize in advance for any inconvenience.

Virtual Visits may be considered for:

Urgent advice requests that require extensive triage, treatment plan updates, laboratory orders, prescriptions or referrals
Non-urgent consultation requests for existing or new symptoms that do not require a face-to-face evaluation (such as rash or other skin complaints).
Any symptom or topic that requires further evaluation, additional lab testing, changes to treatment plans, or new prescriptions
Frequent or lengthy emails with multiple questions between our providers and parents
Parental concerns that require a discussion for the purposes of a comprehensive understanding and recommendations
Review of labs

School, Sport and Camp Physicals

As your child gets older, Goldfish Pediatrics offers school, sport, and camp physicals.

If your child has had a comprehensive exam within the last year and does not require another physical, we request that you email, fax, mail or deliver the appropriate forms to our office for completion at least 14 days before the registration deadline.
