Sick Child Visits

When your child is sick, we understand how important it is to you to have your child seen on the same day. Same-day appointments are available daily throughout the week so that we can accommodate your family when your child is sick. Please call 303-430-0823 and we will be happy to schedule an appointment for your sick child on the same day at either our Thornton or Louisville office. We ask that you call and schedule a same-day appointment rather than just bringing your child into the clinic, in order to minimize your time spent in the waiting room.

Mental Health Assessments

Did you know that nearly 50% of primary care visits in the U.S. are related to some sort of mental health concern? Although children and adolescents make up nearly 25% of Colorado's population, they account for 33% of the mental health conditions diagnosed in Colorado. Providers at Mountainland Pediatrics will ask you and your child questions at each of your visits that are geared to identify potential emotional or behavioral issues, as recommended by the American Academy of Pediatrics. A mental health specialist from Community Reach Center is available to provide consults with your pediatrician and you, as needed, for children of any age.

Physicals

Your child's overall health is important to us! That's why all of our physicals are scheduled for 30 minutes, in order to allow enough time to review your child's health thoroughly and answer all of your questions. Be sure to call in advance to schedule a physical for your child. Because our schedules fill quickly between August and September, we suggest that you schedule your child's physical in the late spring or early summer.

Sport physical letters or updated immunization records can be generated at the time of your child's physical in most cases. We will need three to five business days to complete requests for immunization records or other sport physical related documentation.

Flu Clinics

In mid to late fall, Mountainland Pediatrics provides flu clinics for patients and their families. Appointments will be available on weekdays and weekends. Check our website in September for the flu clinic schedule.

All infants and children between the ages of 6 months and 9 years who are receiving the vaccine for the first time will require two flu vaccines. All children ages 10 and older only require one flu vaccine.

Hospitalization

If hospitalization is needed, Mountainland Pediatrics can admit patients to The Children's Hospital, North Suburban Medical Center, Lutheran Hospital, and Good Samaritan Hospital.

While in the hospital, your child will be seen by hospital staff who will communicate with Mountainland Pediatrics about your child's care.
