PM Pediatrics, an award-winning provider of specialized urgent care, will host a ribbon-cutting ceremony for its North Brunswick practice, located at 2421 Route 1, on Tuesday, January 28, at 9 a.m. PM Pediatrics welcomes the public to attend the inauguration of the brand-new practice, tour the facility, meet the friendly staff and learn more about their services, and enjoy refreshments.
The North Brunswick location joins Livingston, NJ, and six additional practices throughout New York. All PM Pediatrics locations are open Monday through Saturday from noon until midnight, as well as Sundays and select holidays from 10 a.m. until midnight. Dr. Michael Bachman, New Jersey Regional Medical Director for PM Pediatrics and Medical Director at the Livingston office, serves as Medical Director in North Brunswick. “Every family should have access to top-quality healthcare when they need it,” said Dr. Bachman, “We look forward to working closely with local primary care physicians to ensure continuity of care for their patients and provide them with excellent service while preventing unnecessary visits to the ER.”
Every PM Pediatrics practice is staffed by Pediatric Emergency Specialists, including Board-Certified pediatricians and pediatric emergency physicians, who treat newborn through college-age patients in urgent situations while minimizing pain and unnecessary tests. Each state-of-the-art location provides care and treatment for a broad array of illness and injuries including asthma, fever and other infections, dehydration, sprains and fractures, wounds requiring stitches, and much more. Each office has on-site digital x-ray which produces high resolution images read by a board-certified radiologist, and is easily sent to a patient’s primary care physician or orthopedist. Additionally, the practices feature a comprehensive on-site laboratory, which performs rapid blood, urine, and chemistry workups.
Unlike most traditional urgent care practices, PM Pediatrics specializes in treating children and young adults only. They believe strongly in a child’s medical home and do not offer wellness visits, physicals, school check-ups, or immunizations. PM Pediatrics takes special care to send each patient’s medical record to their primary care provider the day of their visit, ensuring timely follow-up and continuity of care. Additionally, each location has access to specialists, including plastic surgeons and orthopedists, as needed. The distinctly designed practices feature kid-friendly themes and TVs in every exam room, creating a warm, welcoming environment for kids and adults alike. This model of care, comfort, and convenience has been enthusiastically received by patients with over 400,000 patient visits to date.
