Our mission is to provide high quality comprehensive pediatric care for all children and adolescents in the community, be they year round residents, seasonal residents or visitors to the area. We see new as well as established patients for scheduled and urgent care visits.
If your child is sick or injured, we will be there to care for them in an environment designed to minimize fear and discomfort for the child as well as the family. The first thing you will notice when you enter our office is the custom designed play center, complete with video games. On the wall is a fanciful mural which welcomes children to our medical home. We have six exam rooms, including a state of the art procedure room fully equipped to provide comprehensive services for an extensive range of injuries and illnesses, in a non-threatening environment.
The East Hampton Healthcare Center, where we are located, is home to a variety of physicians of other specialties, social workers and clinical support services including lab, x-ray and pharmacy.

IMMUNIZATION NEWS
Tetanus, Diphtheria and Pertussis (Tdap) Vaccination: We strongly recommend that all adolescents and adults have at least one dose of Tdap after the age of 11 years. Tdap will booster an adult's protection against pertussis. Pertussis is a contagious illness that causes prolonged and severe cough in adults and death in infants. There is currently an epidemic of pertussis in California and there have been six infant deaths this year. The best way to protect an infant is to have all adults in the household, and caring for the child, immunized. If your child is a patient of this practice and you cannot find a physician to immunize you, we would be willing to provide the vaccine at our office. The cost is $93 per dose, per person.
The Immunization Advisory Committee has approved the use of HPV (Human Papilloma Virus) vaccine in boys as well as girls. We offer this vaccine to patients from 11 years of age. Please check with your insurance company prior to your son's check-up to see if the cost of the vaccine will be covered.
