Sick Child Visits in Raeford & Fayetteville

Is Your Child Feeling Sick?

At Kids First Pediatrics, we understand that when your child is sick, you want prompt and reliable medical care. That’s why we offer sick child visits at our pediatric clinic in Raeford and Fayetteville, NC. If your child is showing signs of a non-life-threatening illness, we encourage you to call our office right away, and we will do our best to get your child in for a visit as soon as possible.

Our team of experienced pediatricians is here to provide compassionate and expert care for your child when they’re not feeling well. From common childhood illnesses like colds, flu, and ear infections to more complex conditions, we have the knowledge and expertise to diagnose and treat a wide range of health issues.

Please call our office at (910) 848-5437 to come in for a sick child visit if your child is experiencing any of the following symptoms:

• High and/or persistent fever
• Vomiting
• Widespread rash
• Rashes
• Diarrhea
• Any unusual symptom that lasts for more than three days in a row
• Persistent pain, such as stomachache, sore throat, headache, or an earache

At the end of the sick child visit, your child’s pediatrician will have identified the illness. Depending on the diagnosis, you will leave with either a prescription, dosage instructions, and/or instructions on how to relieve your child’s symptoms.

Making a Sick Child Appointment

If at all possible, we would prefer that you call ahead of time to make the sick child appointment to avoid having your child sit in the waiting room while potentially contagious.
