Child and Adolescent Care

We believe that every child should be seen as soon as possible and will offer you an appointment the same day with either provider. If an appointment cannot be made for the same day, we shall certainly discuss treatment options to make your child comfortable till seen.
All physical appointments are made as per the schedule and we shall try and schedule the appointment with the provider of choice. A schedule of the physicals and vaccinations advised by the American Academy of Pediatrics is available.
To establish a rapport with both providers, we request that you schedule visits with both at different visits. When both providers are in the office, they discuss the care of each child and Dr. Limaye will come in at the end of the visit to answer any questions you may have. Both providers update each other at the end of the day.

Calls During Office Hours:

Every call is answered as fast as possible. If the call is deemed urgent, the staff will get the provider out of the room. If it is a routine call, you can expect an answer either at lunch time or before the end of the day.

CORONAVIRUS 19 PANDEMIC:

There is a lot of fear and concern right now. The most up-to-date information can be found on the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention website,  www.cdc.gov

 

Even though children seem to be less susceptible to severe infection, they can expose others who may be at a greater risk for more severe outcomes. Our main concern, as always, is the health and safety of our patients and their families.  In order to reduce the risk to our patients and their families, we have put in measures to keep everybody safe.

 

For your safety, we have continued these measures to allow us to continue to care and provide for your family. Please call us at 860-676-9000 when you arrive in the parking lot. We shall call you when the exam room is sanitized and ready. We prefer one parent to be present at all visits. We shall ask you to go straight to the exam rooms.
