Evening and Saturday Sick and Well Check Appointments

Children from both offices who need to be seen in the evenings for illness and scheduled well check appointments, are seen in the Sellersville office on Monday, Tuesday and Thursday evenings; and on Wednesday evening in the Harleysville office. Saturday morning appointments for illness and well checks are available for children normally seen in both offices in our Sellersville office only.

Office Policies

Evening, Weekend, Holiday Additional Charge: An additional $50 charge will be billed to your insurance company when your child is seen in the evening, on a weekend, or on a federal holiday for illness appointments. Please be advised that you may be responsible for all or part of this charge as determined by your insurance company.

Sports and Child Health Appraisal Forms: A $10 fee is charged for the completion of all forms unless the child is being seen for a well check. These forms will only be completed for children who have had a good check in the past year. There will be no exceptions.

Facilities

Sick and Well waiting rooms
In our offices, there are two waiting rooms, one for sick children and one for good children. This was done to relieve the concern of many parents that well children will be exposed to the illness of sick children. Ample exam rooms have been provided so that your stay in the waiting room should be short. A restroom is located near the nurse’s station in each hallway.
