[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Sometimes if you call and tell them it's for an infant, they'll find a way to squeeze you in. [/quote] I don't think a pediatric specialist's office will be super impressed that the patient is a baby. Many of their patients are babies, it doesn't make their visit necessarily any more urgent than the 3 year old's visit. This is why it all depends on what the issue is, and if it's something like "I'm worried this newborn has neonatal erythroderma" which is an actual dermatologic emergency, vs "this baby has facial eczema and the mother is very anxious about the appearance but the baby is healthy and thriving, therefore, yes by all means you can see derm but I'm not calling the office to get you squeezed in quicker because I need to save my favors for the babies with true urgent matters"[/quote]
