Parkview Pediatrics
Jeffrey C. Levinn, M.D. Our team of professionals (physicians, nurse practitioner, nurses, and medical assistants) has as its primary goal the promotion of your child's health and well-being. We consider parents to be our partners, working with us to determine the best approaches for their children. We strive to provide parents with the information they need to be active partners with us in this endeavor. Jeffrey C. Levinn, M.D., FAAP Pamela J. Stone, M.D., FAAP Jaqueline Dennison, N.P. Office Hours Monday - Friday: 9am - 5pm (closed 12:20 - 1:20)Saturdays: May - September, every other Saturday, 9am - noon; October - April, every Saturday, 9am - noon For first visits, please arrive 15 minutes early to complete medical history and other forms. Our schedule for health maintenance (Well Child) visits is:
2 months 4 months 6 months 9 months 12 months 15 months 18 months 24 months Yearly after the age of 2 For school and sports clearances, we have our own forms and attach them to those of the school. This allows us to process forms much more quickly. We will fill out health forms if your child has had a physical in the previous two years and has had no significant illnesses in the interim. If you need us to send out a form, please include an addressed, stamped envelope. Illness visits: Please try to call between 8:30 and 10:00 am if possible. Our policy is to see all children on a same-day basis if either we or you feel they are significantly ill. Telephone calls: If you have an urgent medical problem, we will immediately come to the phone to assist you. For non-urgent questions about your child, we ask that you leave a message. Our trained staff of nurses will call you back. Our standard is to return all morning calls within four hours and all afternoon calls by the end of the afternoon or early evening. When the office is closed: A pediatrician and/or nurse practitioner are always on call. Later in the evening pediatric nurses are also available by phone to address medical concerns. Please save non-urgent questions for regular hours. Hospital care: We admit all seriously ill children to Strong Medical Hospital. Newborns: We see newborns at Strong Memorial, Highland, and Rochester General Hospitals. Fees/Insurance: We request all fees and co-pays be paid at the time of visit. We accept Blue Choice, Preferred Care, and Via Health and will provide you with the necessary paperwork for submission to other insurers. Missed appointment fee: Unlike many other pediatric practices, we will not routinely double-book patients. The appointment time for your child will be vacant if you do not show up or if you call only a short time before the appointment. We will charge a $25 fee for missed appointments. No fee will be charged if you notify our office at least 4 working hours before the appointment time. We want to know: If you'd like us to consider offering a new service or if you feel that we should modify some aspect of our approach to providing care for your children. Talk to any of us directly or drop us a note if you have comments or suggestions. |
