After Hours

On Call Physicians

OUR pediatricians take emergency calls from their homes after hours.

If you have an urgent question that cannot wait for the office to open, you can reach our on-call physician by calling our office at 201-485-7557 and leaving a message with our answering service.  One of our physicians will call you back shortly. Please save routine questions such as mild illness, appointment scheduling, and prescription refills for regular office hours.

We encourage you to refer to our child health resources, when practical, before calling the office.

Emergencies

If an emergency should arise, please call 911.

Emergencies are considered to be those conditions that are life-threatening: loss of consciousness, severe bleeding, difficulty breathing, seizure, etc.

In the case of minor emergencies (lacerations/cuts, mild fractures, sprains), you can call our office first for instructions.
