General Practitioners

• Pediatric Care
  The pediatricians and staff of Emerald Pediatrics feel it is our privilege to care for your child. We wish to provide superior pediatric care in a friendly, accessible environment. We respect the individuality of each family and are committed to assisting you in providing the best environment for your child’s medical, developmental and emotional well-being.
• Emergency Care
  Our office number, (614) 932-5050 connects you with our physicians after hours for questions or urgent matters that may arise. We recommend calling the on-call pediatrician in our office for advice before taking your child in as there are many things you can do at home to avoid an unnecessary urgent visit. If an urgent visit is necessary, we recommend Nationwide Children’s Urgent Care or Emergency Room facilities (click here for information ) if your child needs to be seen after hours.
• Immunizations
  We recommend routine visits as a newborn (2-3 days after hospital discharge), one month, 2 months, 4 months, 6 months, 9 months, 12 months, 15 months, 18 months, and age two. Physicals should be yearly after this until age 21. Wellness visits are an integral part of our relationship with your child, as we get to know your family, provide age-specific developmental screening and advice, and update immunizations.
