AFTER HOURS SERVICES.
Dr. Caplan, Dr. Amitin and a group of other pediatricians in the local community, will be providing after-hours, on-call services for all patients in this office.
Each time your child has a medical problem after regular office hours, that can not wait until the next morning, you must first phone the office at 410-601-8383 to listen to a recorded message telling you the name and phone number of the pediatrician who is on-call. Each Doctor has a different number, so it is very important that you call our office first and then call the number provided on the recording. If you feel the problem can wait until morning, you can bring your child to the office without an appointment between 9 - 10am on regular office days. We try to ensure that all children who need to be seen due to illness, will receive a call from a provider and an appointment if indicated, on the same day as you call the office.
IF THE PROBLEM COULD BE LIFE THREATENING, PLEASE GO TO THE NEAREST EMERGENCY ROOM OR DIAL 911 FOR IMMEDIATE ASSISTANCE.
