Our Providers
Our providers are committed to administering caring, technically competent care to all of our patients. Each of us strives to ensure that your child's visit with us is as enjoyable as possible. We strive to answer all of your questions at each visit and will work in partnership with you to help your children grow up in a safe, healthy, and nurturing enviroment.
All of our doctors and nurse practitioners are fully credentialled in pediatrics, and regularly attend conferences and workshops to keep our knowledge base up to date.
Our Doctors
All of our physicians are board certified by the American Board of Pediatrics, and are Fellows of the American Academy of Pediatrics. Each maintains admitting privileges at Children's Hospital Boston and works closely with the specialists there who follow our patients when needed.
Our Board Certified physicians communicate closely with our pediatric nurse practitioners and registered nurses to provide you with the most thorough care possible.
LexingtonPediatrics enjoys a position at Children's Hospital as one of the largest private practices actively involved in patient care and teaching. Our doctors supervise residents on the wards, oversee the care of Lexington patients admitted to Children's, and serve as preceptors for young doctors considering careers in primary care.
Our Pediatric Nurse Practitioners
Advanced practice nurses with specialized training, our PNPs perform the same functions as our physicians -- examining patients for check-ups, sick visits, and follow-ups, ordering diagnostic tests, and writing prescriptions. Their addition to our staff allows for extended access to care for all our patients. What is a Pediatric Nurse Practitioner?
Our Registered Nurses
Often on the front lines of our patients' clinical concerns, our registered nurses field questions and concerns on our Nurse Triage Phone Line, make same day sick appointments for patients requiring urgent care, and provide immunizations, nebulizer and other treatments here in the office.
If you have a question or concern about your child during office hours, Lexington Pediatrics offers a telephone Nurse Triage line, staffed by our pediatric nursing staff, to help you. If you reach our voice mail, just leave a callback number on the voice mail and someone will return your call.
You can call our Nurse Triage line (option 4 on our phone system) for practical advice about medication dosing, common illnesses, and everyday problems (sleep issues, feeding issues); also, our RN's can help you book a same-day sick appointment, assist in obtaining specialist appointments, and help with medication refills. A third-party Nurse Triage service is also available outside of our normal business hours for your assistance.
Our Staff
From routing your phone requests, to scheduling appointments; from handling your billing and account issues to instructing you about your insurance coverage, our staff is here for you. They interact with you each day to keep things running smoothly and to help you to manage your health. Our dedicated staff truly likes working with you and is your first line of support.
