This Saturday, August 1, we are opening for back-to-school and sports physicals. This is for ** school-age ** physicals only to help everyone who needs a physical done before school starts.

We will open at 10 a.m. You must be checked in BY 10:30 a.m. to be seen. If you are checked in by 10:30 a.m. on Saturday, we will get your child's physical done Saturday. If it is after 10:30 a.m., you will not be added to the list. We will try to get everyone in and out as efficiently as possible but need your help.

Some rules:
1. School age physicals only.
2. No sick visits. No problem visits. Physicals only. Anything that is not a school-age physical should be scheduled for a week day.
3. If you are not checked in by 10:30 a.m., we will be unable to add your child to the schedule for that day. Please do not show up at 10:45 or 11 a.m. and get upset that we cannot add your child. Check in by 10:30 and you will be seen, otherwise, we can get your child on a week day schedule.
4. If you know that you are planning to come, please give us a call ahead of time at 508-5353 so we can go ahead and verify insurance and prepare required school paperwork ahead of time.

Thank you all!

Hello from summer camp!
We had a whole voicemail created telling people we are closed this week, but apparently the voicemail is now only saying it's full.
Just a reminder we are closed until monday.
You can email [email protected] as an alternative to the voice mail!

1 week warning! Next week, I am out for my annual work-all-week-at-camp week! I will have limited cell service and will be busy all day (and night) with hundreds of campers and counselors.
I will not be able to send referrals, give copies of shot records or physicals, or do medication refills so now is the time to get all of that done! Please do not wait until Friday and if you think you need an appointment, do it ASAP.

If you have a newborn during the week of June 15th, please email [email protected] and we can work on scheduling.

(If you are looking for summer camp options, check out Warren Willis camp for day camp and overnight options. There still is availability next week when I am there!)

We've been seeing lots of swimmer's ear! Here's an old post with a trick to help prevent it now that swim season is here!

Want to enjoy swimming and water play and not have to worry about getting swimmer's ear? Make your own homemade drops! Equal parts rubbing alcohol and white vinegar will help keep swimmer's ear away! I keep a bottle of it and just use a few drops any time we swim. The alcohol helps dry the water up and the vinegar helps keep bacteria from forming. And for anyone curious, the fancy medical term for swimmer's ear is otitis externa.
But if your child has tubes or a possible eardrum perforation, they should skip these drops.

We are closing early today -- my kids have a dentist appointment -- and opening at 1045 tomorrow as I have to drop my daughter off at camp for the summer for her camp counselor job!
Please leave a voicemail and we will return your calls! Elizabeth
