NEW PATIENT INFORMATION
Choosing a Pediatrician
- Many expectant parents will schedule a prenatal visit to see the office and meet with one of our Pediatricians prior to delivery. This visit is free of charge and is a good way to get to know our office before your baby arrives.
- Feel free to bring a list of questions for our pediatricians to review with you. Many parents ask questions about breastfeeding, items needed at home for baby, questions about sleep methods, etc.
- Please call us at 870-7292 from 8:00-5:00 to schedule a prenatal appointment.
Which hospitals does Over the Mountain Pediatrics visit?
- Our Pediatricians make rounds and see new babies at Brookwood Medical Center and St. Vincent's Hospital.
- If you deliver at another hospital, the staff pediatricians there will examine your baby and tell you when to follow up with Over the Mountain Pediatrics for a check-up. Please make sure you bring your hospital papers with you to your first visit.
How do I let Over the Mountain Pediatrics know that my baby has been born?
When you arrive at the hospital for delivery, the staff will ask you who your pediatrician will be. After the baby is born, they will call our office to notify one of our Pediatricians to come see your baby.
When will you see our baby in the hospital?
We will come to see your baby within 24 hours of birth and will see you each day you are in the hospital.
When will we come see Over the Mountain Pediatrics for our first visit?
This is dependent on several factors but is usually within the first week of life.
