Our Department

Our department consists of 14 physicians, 3 pediatric nurse practitioners, and 40 support staff members. We care for children from birth to 18 years of age. We offer a wide range of services not only for acute problems and well-child evaluations but also for a variety of more specialized care services.

Our areas of expertise include special care for teens, help with breast feeding, instruction for asthma care and in-department mental health services to name a few. We have providers with special interest in neonatology, infectious disease, learning problems, adolescent medicine and asthma. Many of our staff are bilingual with primary emphasis on providing care for our Spanish- speaking patients. We have regularly scheduled pediatric specialty care offered in Genetics and Endocrinology.

Medical care is provided by an experienced staff composed of Pediatricians, a Service Unit Manager, Pediatric Nurse Practitioners, Registered Nurses, Licensed Vocational Nurses, Medical Assistants, Tele-service Representatives, and Patient Service Representatives.

Patients are strongly encouraged to have a Personal Care Provider. During your next visit to our department, please ask the receptionist for the ''Choosing a Pediatrician'' brochure to assist you in selecting a Pediatrician for your child.

The Pediatric Department is located on the second floor of the Richard Stein Medical Offices at 3925 Old Redwood Highway. Hours of operation are Monday-Friday 8:30am-5:00pm.

To schedule an appointment please call us at (707) 393-4033.

Pediatric Advice Lines are open 24 hours a day, seven days a week.

If you think you have a MEDICAL OR PSYCHIATRIC EMERGENCY, CALL 911 IMMEDIATELY or go to the nearest hospital. DO NOT attempt to access emergency care through this web site. An emergency medical condition is a medical or psychiatric condition that manifests itself by acute symptoms of sufficient severity (including severe pain) such that you could reasonably expect the absence of immediate medical attention to result in any of the following: serious jeopardy to your health, serious impairment to your bodily functions, or serious dysfunction of any bodily organ or part. An emergency medical condition is also "active labor," which means a labor when there is inadequate time for safe transfer to a Plan hospital (or designated hospital) before delivery or if a transfer poses a threat to the health of the member or unborn child.
