Caring for Your Baby

Congratulations on the arrival of your new baby! Parenthood is one of the most joyous and satisfying experiences of life. We consider it a privilege to share in the care of your baby and marvel with you at the growth and development of your child.

We examine your baby daily while you are in the hospital. If your baby has any problem, we will discuss them with you in detail. One of our pediatricians will be in your hospital room every morning and will be happy to answer any questions you have.

The doctor who discharges you from the hospital will advise you regarding your baby’s first office visit.

This website contains no secret to being a good parent. We are convinced there is no single best approach to parenting. Your baby is an individual from the day he is born. Since no two children are alike, your effectiveness as a parent depends considerably on your insight and ability to respond appropriately to the unique, individual needs of your child. Thus, this website contains general principles and instructions which you may adapt to your baby.

As your baby’s pediatrician, it is our goal to protect the baby’s health by assisting you in recognizing his needs. Our aim is to recognize problems early, and to prevent them by regular well child checkups, during which all aspects of health, growth, and development will be evaluated.

For your convenience, patients are seen by appointment only. Under the General Information section of this Medical Advice page, you will find our recommended well child check-up and immunization schedule.
