Pediatric "Concierge Medicine" Program
Previously
unavailable in the SF Bay Area, a concierge practice with a dedicated
pediatrician and pediatric program. Give your children the benefit of
the same high level of care that some of their more fortunate parents
have enjoyed in the past.
Newborn Program
There are lots of questions
and long nights as a new parent. Enjoy 24/7 access to your child's Pediatrician
and home visits for the early months of life. Imagine not needing to
leave the comfort of your home as you bond with your new baby. Lactation
assistance, information about new parent support programs and tips on
all sorts of baby products and issues are now readily available.
Relaxed Primary Care Pediatrics
No matter what
the age of your child, newborn, school aged or adolescent, have you ever
felt rushed or hurried with his Pediatrician? Do you have all sorts of
health-related questions you would like answered? The Village Doctor
offers the time for you to explore in depth your youngster's development,
behavior, nutrition and health. Over the long term, you will grow to
know each other well in times of good health and intermittent illness.
No matter how big or small the issue, you now will have a Pediatrician
you can access with ease.
Adolescent Wellness Program
In the typical
Pediatric office, teens can be a missed face. They are often healthy
and go years in between well check visits. We recognize today's stressors
and the challenges of being a well-adjusted, successful teen. We are
happy to offer a program designed to optimize both the health and wellness
of busy adolescents.
24-hour immediate medical coverage by Physician including
mobile phone access
Unprecedented access to your child's
physician with direct dial or email access 24/7. After hours call
will be shared by a dedicated and very small group of program providers
with specific pediatric expertise.
Same day appointments
By limiting our practice
size to roughly 10% of the average primary care practice, The Village
Doctor will have time for you and your family.
Same day house calls
By using mobile medical
kits and a state of the art electronic medical record, The Village Doctor
physicians can bring the clinic to you
Emergency Department escort
Should your child
need to go to the Emergency Department, your ED visit will be coordinated
by members of The Village Doctor team - if possible
your physician will meet you in the Emergency Department to facilitate
a timely and quality ED experience.
Medical oversight which includes direct specialist referrals
and scheduling
With a Pediatrician who knows you and
your family well, and who has time and personal relationships with
our medical specialists, we can facilitate timely appointments, explain
treatment options, and truly optimize care which might otherwise
be complex and confusing.
Hospital service oversight
All
aspects of your hospitalization, should this be required, will be overseen
and coordinated by your pediatrician and our network of experts.
Research
Leveraging relationships at a world-class
teaching hospital, our physicians will research your medical condition
or questions to ensure that you are provided with the very best that
medical science has to offer.
Travel medicine services
Many of the families
in our community are world travelers for business or pleasure. Most are
not fully aware of the potential pitfalls of injury or illness overseas,
and most primary care providers are unfamiliar with the issues of pediatric
travel medicine. Our expertise in the area of Travel Medicine will minimize
those risks for you. Immunizations and/or the International SOS assistance
/ repatriation program will be coordinated as necessary.
