Transferring Care to Briarvista Pediatrics
There is no need to schedule a visit to establish care, although we are always happy to give new families a tour of our office.
Please note that vaccine records are required prior to scheduling your child’s first visit, in addition to the completion of registration forms and CHADIS questionnaires.
We are NOT accepting new patients older than 12y, with some exceptions for siblings and those moving from out-of-state.
Other than newborns, we are “on hold” with accepting new patients until mid-February, 2024. Please contact the office for more details.
Is your child sick?
We do not require a check-up prior to being seen for a sick visit, but we do require medical records & registration forms. Sick visits are subject to availability. Please call our office to schedule.
Check-up time?
Schedule your child’s next well-child care visit with us per our care guidelines. Please note, insurance plans differ as to whether they will cover a check-up for kids older than three years every calendar year or every 365 days. It’s up to you to know when your child is due for a check-up and when your insurance will cover it. If a visit comes back as non-covered, you will be responsible for full payment.
Our checkup schedule: newborn, 1m, 2m, 4m, 6m, 9m, 12m, 15m, 18m, 2yo, 2.5yo, 3yo, then annually.
Need to follow-up for chronic conditions?
If your child needs management for a long-term medical condition, please schedule an appointment separate from any check-up or other sick visit. Examples of chronic conditions include asthma, allergies, eczema, ADHD, acne, depression, irregular menstrual cycles, constipation, or anything else requiring medications on a regular basis.
Next Steps
- Please review our vaccine policy and financial policy.
- Here you will find our new patient forms. Feel free to print and complete them at home to save time at your first visit.
- Complete a medical record release form and submit it to your previous pediatrician’s office. This is especially important for children with any significant past medical problems, including but not limited to ADHD, asthma, behavioral or psychiatric concerns, growth delays, any specialist visits, abnormal labs, etc.
- Call your insurance company to verify that Dr. Wexler is listed, and to change your child’s Primary Care Provider (PCP) to her if necessary. See our list of contracted insurance plans; if your plan is not on that list, we are always happy to see you out-of-network or on a cash-pay basis.
- If moving from out of state, please fax our office your child’s immunization records as soon as you can. Please note, we will require this prior to scheduling a first visit.
