What to Ask Your Future Pediatric Doctor

It can be hard to figure out what to ask when looking for your child's new doctor. After all, if this is your first time as a parent, you would like to find the right pediatric fit for your family. To prepare for your interview visit with our pediatric doctor, write down questions you would like answered during your visit. Below are some examples of questions according to our pediatrician at Midwest Care Pediatrics in Berwyn and Villa Park, IL, that you could ask when seeking a doctor for your child.

• What hospitals are you affiliated with?
  Finding a provider affiliated with a hospital near your family who will make your child's first well-child visit to your hospital room is important. Also, as your child ages, it's important to know our doctors can see your child at the hospital during an emergency.
• Can We Meet Your Support Staff?
  Ask about our staff, including any other available pediatric doctors. If there is an emergency or our primary doctor can't see your child, having familiarity with the staff can ease the stress of change.
• What about flexibility for sick child visits or after-hours care?
  Children don't just get sick during office hours. Be sure to find out who can help your sick child during closed hours.
• Does your office take my insurance, and are you in my network?
  Nothing is worse than finding a doctor you love that doesn't take your insurance. Be sure to ask at reception to make sure you are covered.

What are your philosophies on ...?

Don't hesitate to ask our pediatric doctors questions on topics that concern you. Sharing your viewpoints on medical care for your child is one way to see if you and our doctors will share a common goal in raising a healthy child.
