Our phone number is (973) 831-4545.
Although we only have one phone number, we have multiple lines
into our office to make it easier for you to reach us. Routine
questions regarding child care can often be answered by our
staff after 10 a.m. Anyone with an emergency can always speak to
a doctor immediately, after first providing our staff with the
basics of the problem.
All visits are by appointment only. If a true emergency occurs,
you may stop by our office during regular office hours and we
will make every effort to accommodate you.
After the office closes, calls will be taken by our answering
service. Please provide them with as much information as needed.
We usually return calls within 30- to 60-minutes; however,
emergency calls will be returned immediately. In fact, late at
night, emergency calls can be put through to our home phones. If
we fail return your call within one hour, please call again.
This usually means a problem has occurred in the translation of
your message. If we are in the midst of an emergency, (i.e.
delivery room, sick newborn, emergency room), our answering
service should alert you to this and estimate when we will
return your call. Life threatening situations should be handled
rapidly by calling your local police department/ambulance. If
your child can be taken to the emergency room of The Valley
Hospital, Chilton Hospital, St. Joseph's Childrens Hospital, or
Hackensack University Medical Center, it will allow us to be
involved in all decision making.
