Monday through Friday we are open from 8:30 am until 4:30 pm in Stamford, and from 8:15 am until 5:00 pm in New Canaan. Urgent care visits are available on Saturday, Sunday and holiday mornings.

Can I see the same physician each time I come in?
We accomodate your requests for a specific physician whenever possible. In general our physicians share patients so that care for a patient is never compromised should one doctor not be available.

If I have an appointment for one child and my other child becomes sick, can I bring him/ her along to see the doctor too?
Please call to see if your other child can be seen around the time of your scheduled appointment and we will try to accommodate you. If not, we will offer you the next available appointment.

How long is the average wait time?
We make every effort to keep your wait time to less than 20 minutes. However, on busy days, if we encounter unexpectedly complicated problems, it may be longer.

Can my child be seen in either office location?
Families register for and patients attend one office or the other. The one exception is on Sundays and Holidays when only the Stamford office opens for emergency visits.
