A lot of first time parents are not sure when they should start their search for the best pediatrician in Temecula. The right time to start your search is while you are in your last trimester of pregnancy. Having your pediatrician on board before the baby is born is a good way to arrange for care for your newborn and to feel confident in your choice. Before the baby comes you will be able to take your time to choose the best pediatrician in Temecula without feeling that sense of urgency that you will feel after the baby is born.
When You Move
If you are getting ready to move to Temecula the best time to start your search for a pediatrician is before you make the move. It is a good idea to start calling around, and set the first appointment for a week or two after you arrive. Be sure that you:
- Pack up current medical records
- Know where the baby’s immunization record is
- Make note of any medical conditions you want to talk to the new doctor about
Be sure that you get your child/babies current medical records from the current pediatrician, it will cut down on time when you go to see the new doctor and avoid having to repeat similar tests if you have the records with you.
Your children’s immunization records are important throughout childhood so be sure to always know where it is, it can get hard to keep up with the record once it has been misplaced.
If You Are Not Happy with The Current Care Provider
Of course, if you are already seeing a pediatrician and you are not satisfied with the care or it is difficult to get an appointment you can switch providers. Children’s Primary Care Medical Group is happy to help you find the services that you need.
