Sick-Child Visits in Kirkland, WA

You might already be familiar with well-child visits, which are regular and routine checkups with a doctor or pediatrician in order to protect your child from illness and monitor his or her development. Sick-child visits, though, are appointments you schedule with a doctor or pediatrician if your child becomes ill or unwell. Common, minor conditions like minor cuts or colds can be treated in a sick-child visit.

At Evergreen Pediatrics, we understand that when your child is sick, it can feel like an emergency even if it isn’t one. This is why we offer same-day sick-child visits. You’ll be able to see us right away so we can treat your child and help him or her get better quickly.

Truly, a sick child can seem like a serious matter, so some parents might decide to take their child to the ER (emergency room). This is necessary if a child is suffering from a condition that is or could be life-threatening. It isn’t necessary, though, when a child’s condition is minor. If this is the case, then a same-day sick-child visit is the better option.

It might be best for you to take your child to the doctor for a same-day appointment if your child has:

– An illness like strep throat
– A high or lasting fever (a high fever in a child younger than 3 months is an emergency requiring a visit at the ER, however)
– Abdominal pain, especially pain on the right side, which could indicate appendicitis
– A recent injury, like a minor fracture
– Difficulty swallowing or is having a minor allergic reaction
– Headaches or is vomiting
– A widespread of painful rash
– Another minor condition that should have immediate attention

If you believe your child should have a sick-child visit or a same-day visit with us at Evergreen Pediatrics, then get in touch with us today for a booking.
