Chestnut Hill Pediatrics Office Updates

Office Updates

How we are protecting our patients:

• We have a universal mask policy for our staff.  We also provide masks to parent (and child if possible) during office visits. 
• We ask that only 1 parent and no siblings accompany the child to their visit.
• We keep our waiting rooms as empty as possible.  Please call us upon your arrival so you can be taken directly to an exam room. 
• All rooms, chairs, doorknobs, and equipment are thoroughly disinfected between patients.

Telehealth visits are available for behavioral health and management of some chronic health conditions.

In-person well visits for immunizations are more important than ever, especially for babies and children under the age of 24 months.  Immunizations are needed to prevent illnesses such as measles, mumps, and pneumococcal disease from resurfacing.
