After Hours

If an Emergency Should Arise, Please Call 911.

Children tend to be very active people which can lead to quite a few cuts, bumps, and even broken bones. They also tend to catch their share of bugs, and sometimes these can cause serious illnesses.


If your child ever suffers an injury or has an illness that you believe could be life-threatening, call 911 immediately whether it is day or night.


For all other injuries or illnesses which you believe might require immediate care, you might first want to check out the an article from the American Academy of Pediatrics on Emergencies. There are some very good basic guidelines on the need for emergent care. If you are able to wait for a call back, we suggest calling your primary care provider before seeking help at an ER. Many situations can be handled by the on call provider and you can avoid long wait times in an ER. 


Any time you have a general question about your childs' health or specific medical condition, you can send us a message through Medfusion(PXP), our electronic patient portal. If these messages are sent when the office is closed, one of our registered nurses will address them the next time the office opens.


This website has great information on common medical illnesses including treatments and medication dosages.

Suicide & Crisis Hotline - Help is available 24/7, Call 988

On-Call Providers

For serious or urgent medical questions, the on-call provider can be reached through the main office line  (859) 331-4005.   This line is for urgent medical questions.  Please do NOT call after hours for  insurance referrals,  billing questions,  prescription refill requests, or for scheduling appointments.


You will be directed to a voicemail to leave your name, your childs' name and birthdate, your callback number, and a summary of your concern or question about your child.
