A locum pediatrician is a pediatrician who is filling in for one of our pediatricians in their absence. Locums are an integral part of our practice, in order to continue to provide the best possible care for our patients when we are away.

Protecting your child’s information is very important to us, and so we don’t use email to communicate patient results, or to gather forms or information about your child. If you have a question, or need to get a form or report to your pediatrician, please call, mail, drop off or fax us.
