How to Become a Patient
For Newborns
If you are expecting a new baby and you’re interested in coming to Dowd Pediatrics, please call our main number to signup for one of our monthly pre-natal forums.
Once you have your discharge plan, please call the office to book your first newborn appointment.
The baby’s first appointment in our office is usually a few days after you get home from the hospital. Regular well baby visits during the first year are then scheduled at 1, 2, 4, 6, 9 and 12 months.
Older Children
Simply request a copy of your child's medical records and bring the record to our office before scheduling your first appointment. Records can be faxed to 781 944-2276, emailed to medrecords@dowdmed.com, or dropped off in person.
We should have your previous records before you are seen for any medical appointment. Getting records from your previous provider and into our system can take some time, so we recommend starting the transfer process well before you need an appointment.
