We strive to be available to our patients by offering evening hours and weekend hours for illness visits. The on-call physician may be able to see your sick child on those days your primary care pediatrician is unavailable. The on-call physician is available during evening clinic and weekend clinic by appointment only. If you feel your child needs to be seen during evening clinic, please call after 4 pm or early in the evening so that we can schedule your appointment.
The evening clinic runs from 6:00 pm to 7:00 pm, though we often remain open until 8:00pm if a number of patients need to be seen. The Saturday clinic runs from 9:30 am to 1:00pm and the Sunday clinic runs from 10:30 am to 1:00pm. Again, we may remain open longer if the need arises. Rarely, we must shorten these hours due to bad weather, power outages or staffing problems. There is an additional charge for the evening and weekend/holiday clinic.
If your child needs to be seen after our available evening or weekend hours, you may possibly be seen at the after hours clinics run by Children's Hospital in Seattle or Bellevue. The telephone number is: 206-987-2000.
