Do you wonder if you are with the right Temecula pediatricians? It can be a hard to tell if you are getting the best possible care for your baby, especially if you are a new parent because you do not have a point of reference but there are 3 simple questions you can ask your pediatrician to see if you are with the best care provider.
The Questions
The questions that you should ask will reveal whether or not you are with the right group. Knowing where you stand with your pediatrician can help you to decide whether or not you need to be looking for a new pediatrician. Here are the questions you should ask:
- If the office is closed what do I do?
- How can I view records? Test results? Visit notes?
- Is there a care line for advice that I can call?
What if the office is closed?
If your pediatrician is not part of a network that can direct you to urgent care facilities this can be a deal breaker. You want to be able to get care for your child after hours if necessary.
How can you view records?
Your pediatrician should have an online access to things like appointment scheduling and non-critical test results. If they don’t you may want to consider switching to a provider that offers these key services and capabilities.
Advice line?
Many pediatricians that are part of a larger network will have an advice line that is manned by an RN or other provider. This can be a huge help when you are minimally concerned about something with your child but you want to check on it anyway or there is a minor illness that you want some advice about.
If your pediatrician can not provide you with the right answers to these questions call Children’s Primary Care Medical Group.
