As we all adapt pediatric practice in response to COVID-19, we, the providers at Pediatrics East of New York are committed to being here for our patients during this difficult time. We will be continuing to provide care to our patients while maximizing social distancing to protect our staff and families. We are still seeing patients in the office in limited numbers for well visits.

In addition, we are offering telemedicine (virtual visits via video or phone) to our established patients for non-emergency medical issues, developmental concern consults, and general pediatric related questions or concerns. This also includes medical services (diagnosis, treatment plan, prescription, etc) provided via phone calls after hours, and on weekends. Please call or email our office to arrange your visit: 212.879.7014 or kids@pedsoneast.com.
