With the school year underway and our new Mansfield office up and running, we at Westwood Mansfield Pediatrics have been working to improve the availability of visits as well as the ease of scheduling same day sick visits.
We are in the process of adding multiple new providers to the Westwood-Mansfield Pediatrics family. It is our expectation that this will significantly increase the number of appointments (both well check-ups and sick visits) available.
Additionally, following the overwhelming success of our weekend scheduling, we are increasing the number of visits that can be booked on-line. Effective November 15, 2023, all acute, sick visits can be booked as written below:
- Daytime Visits: Effective November 15, 2023, all sick visits will be available to be booked on-line through MyChart.
- Evening Visits: All evening visits must be booked on-line via MyChart. Evening visits will be available to be booked starting at 3 p.m. on the day of the visit. These visit slots may be available earlier if daytime visits are full.
- Weekend Visits: All weekend and holiday visits must be booked on-line via MyChart. Weekend visits will be available to be booked starting at 8am on the day of the visit.
- Evening Phones: With all evening visits being booked on-line, we will now be turning off our phones for routine calls at 6 p.m. on Monday – Thursday. We will have our Nurse Practitioner on-call service available to answer all urgent, after-hours, phone calls.
