New Patients

When you arrive for your first visit, please come prepared to complete new patient paperwork, which usually takes about 15 minutes per child. Please remember to bring your insurance card. You may download our new patient paperwork using the FORMS link above. If you have any record of your child's immunizations, please bring those to your first visit as well. If you do not have any records, please come prepared to fill out a release so that we may request them from your previous physician.

Newborns

Congratulations on the arrival of your new baby! Parenthood is one of the most joyous and satisfying experiences of life and we are honored that you have entrusted us to help you with the care of your child. When the physician is discharging your baby from the hospital, he/she will tell you when to bring your baby into the office. (Most of the time it will be 24-48 hours after your discharge.) At that time we will weigh your baby and the physician will perform a brief exam, looking for any evidence of jaundice (a yellow color in the skin and whites of eyes). During this time you may be asked to revisit the office the following week for a weight check. After your first newborn well visit, the doctor will ask you to return at the following ages:

• 1 month
• 2 months
• 4 months
• 6 months
• 9 months
• 12 months
• 15 months
• 18 months
• 24 months
• Every year following for an annual physical

Meets and Greets

Rainbow Pediatric Center offers get acquainted visits to parents at no charge. These visits are designed to give the parent the opportunity to come in and meet our staff, see our office, and sit down with the doctor to answer any questions. These are generally geared towards expectant mothers who want to ask questions before their baby arrives; however recently we have had an increase in appointments for parents and children who are just looking for a new pediatrician. We try to accomodate your needs and requests.

Rainbow Pediatric Center accepts most insurance plans. Co-pays and deductibles are due at time of service. For your convenience we accept cash, checks, Visa, and MasterCard. For all HMO insurance plans, please be sure to select Dr. Prasanthi Reddy as your primary care physician (PCP) before your scheduled appointment. Although we do our best to monitor each patient's insurance coverage, please remember it is up to you to notify us of any changes to your policy. If you have any questions concerning financial issues, please call 904-223-9100 and ask to speak with our billing personnel.
