New Patients

Welcome to Potomac Pediatrics!

We’ve made becoming a new patient here quick and easy. Complete the steps to register your child and expedite check-in at their first visit. Please note, any patient who is 18 years old at the time of registration, must register on their own but parents rest assured they will have an opportunity to choose to grant access to you once they’ve completed this step!

During these informational sessions, you will learn what it means for Potomac Pediatrics to become your family’s medical home.  We will highlight all the great services we have offer so you understand what sets us apart.  We will also walk you through what to expect during the days, weeks, and years following delivery.

Newborn Registration

Step 1: Complete the newborn pre-registration packet

  • Complete as many sections as you can but you may not have all the information, yet.  For the date of birth, please put the expected due date. If you are unsure of the sex or name, you may put any of the following options: Baby Girl, Baby Boy, Baby (family last name)

 

*Please be sure to check your email and confirm your email address after you’ve completed the pre-registration packet!

Step 2:  Meet your baby! 

  • Potomac Pediatrics does not round in the newborn nursery.  We are so lucky to have so many great birthing centers in the area. When your baby is born the in-house pediatricians at the birthing center will care for your baby. We will meet you and your baby after you are discharged home.

 

Step 3: Call to schedule your baby’s first appointment

  • Please call us at 301-279-6750 when you know your discharge date so we can help set up your baby’s first appointment. Typically, we like to see the babies 1-3 days after you are discharged from of the hospital.  Please bring your hospital paperwork to the appointment!

Step 3: Schedule your first appointment

  • Well Child Exam – If your child is due for a checkup, please call 301-279-6750 to schedule that appointment. Click here to view the recommended checkup schedule. Please note that many insurances require 365 days between annual, preventative visits after age 2. You will not be assigned to a specific provider; however, we recommend that you find one provider in our group with whom you connect and schedule all your well exams with that same person.
  • Establish Care Visit – If your child is not due for a check-up, we highly encourage an Establish Care visit.  At this visit, we will get to know you and your child, discuss your child’s medical history, your family history, and address any active concerns you may have.
  • Sick visit – You cannot control when you kids are sick.  If you need a sick visit call the office to schedule a visit or speak to a member of our nurse triage team.
