Dear Patient Families: Please note that our office is still open during our state's shelter-in-place order. Please note that we cannot accept walk-ins, and if you or your child has a cough, fever, or difficulty breathing please inform our staff. Please call (559) 435-1500 for an appointment.

Dear First Pediatrics Patient Families: In this challenging time of attempting to deal with the COVID-19 virus in our community, please know that we are doing our best to keep our patients, their families, and our staff safe. To that end, we've instituted the following changes in our practice to help limit the exposure and spread of the virus: 1. We ask that if your child is sick, that you call our practice to schedule an appointment, instead of attempting to walk in. 2. We'v...e been scheduling our sick children in the afternoons, and our children with other complaints in the morning to limit any possible exposure to the COVID-19 virus. 3. For those families with newborn children, we will prioritize moving them as quickly as possible away from our office, in specially designated neonatal treatment rooms. 4. For children who may be exhibiting symptoms of the COVID-19 virus, such as: fever, dry cough, weakness, and difficulty breathing, we ask that you notify our staff of your child's symptoms, and that you call our office once you arrive, and park in one of the designated parking spaces at the rear of our office. One of our staff members will come to your car and triage your child, and if necessary, have you enter the office in specially designated treatment rooms. 5. We will be updating our Facebook page with posts that we feel that be of value to our families to help educate and weather this illness. 6. In the meantime, we would like to offer these words of encouragement and hope: As of now, children appear to be the least severely affected by the COVID-19 virus, and most children who contract the virus manage to make a complete recovery.
