Signage is up! Construction is still in progress - the walls should go in this week. Opening date is still pending due to shipping uncertainty for flooring and cabinetry but will hopefully be August 17 or 24. Stay tuned for updates, we'll see you soon in Smithville, and we remain available in Plattsburg and for virtual visits in the meantime.

It's that time again! Fall sports season is coming up, as well as all the other reasons your child may need a well check or physical - school, day care, or routine care.

Our Smithville office is still in the "warm up" phase (we will open late July or early August), but we remain available in Plattsburg. While it is a short drive away, consider that we have NO wait time, either for visits (we have wide availability even this week) or once you arrive. We realize the importance of your time and won't keep you lingering in the waiting room, stuck on hold on the phone, or needing to shuffle your schedule to fit into limited appointment spots.

Similar to that, we have same day availability for virtual/telehealth and in person visits and are available evenings and weekends for those as well.

For new patients, you can give us a call or fill out our new patient registration at https://elementalpediatrics.com/for-patients-and-families and mark "Please call me" and we will reach out to find a time that works well for you.

Current patients can conveniently self-schedule on Portal or give is a call as well.

We look forward to seeing you!
