In order to stay true to the mission and vision of Fairhaven Pediatrics, it is imperative that each child have excellent, personal care from a doctor that knows everything about their health.  This requires unrushed office visits so that each patient and family gets the time and attention they deserve.

In today’s world of insurance driven medical care, providers are expected to see more and more patients every hour in order to bring enough revenue to keep a practice running.  This causes the patient care to suffer and it causes the providers to suffer, leading to burnout in alarming numbers.  By limiting the number of patients in the practice, I can spend more time with each one without being rushed through each visit.  This way I am giving excellent care every time, valuing quality over quantity.  In order to give this extra time to each patient, I have created an optional membership plan which offers care above and beyond the traditional primary care practice.

Optional membership plan includes:

24/7 access to medical care

   Our membership model offers you the convenience of 24/7 access directly to your pediatrician via text or call at no additional charge.  It includes priority same day sick visits for members, and the option for after hours telemedicine visits or in person visits, depending on the child’s needs.  All forms, including sports and camp physicals, are filled out at no additional charge.  The membership also includes Saturday appointment slots, which are reserved exclusively for membership patients.  Our same day appointment cancellation fee of $25 is also waived for members.

Cost:  There is a small monthly membership fee of $65 per child for the first two children, and $30 for each additional child.
