Disclaimer
Part of our services at Christakis Pediatrics includes access to our office by way of email. We receive emails weekly, regarding administrative and scheduling questions, as well as medical advice. The non-medical issues are responded to by our staff, while medical issues are addressed by our nurse, or myself, but only for established patients. We check our email several times per week, so clearly this service is NOT intended for anything urgent. Emergency situations always require a 911 call. Non-urgent queries are usually answered within 24-48 hours. You should also know that these email exchanges are added to our patient charts and become part of the permanent medical record. For urgent or sensitive matters after hours, please call our office and speak with the on-call doctor, or during regular hours call to schedule a same-day appointment (office or virtual) rather than attempting to communicate by email.
If you are not the intended recipient of an email response from us, please be so kind as to immediately delete the email and notify us by phone at 561-392-4453.
Notice
Should you call our office during off hours (lunch, evenings, weekends) and find that the phone only rings and does not connect to our answering service, please immediately contact Bethesda Memorial Hospital at 561-278-7733. Then dial "0" for the operator and once you reach a live operator, let them know you are trying to call and the phones are not reaching the answering service. On rare occasions we have had our call forwarding function interrupted either spontaneously or due to a power outage. This happens once or twice a year. We want to be sure our patients can reach us when needed, and this will help us to achieve this.
