In order to provide the high level of care we want to provide in the office and after hours, we are no longer making hospital visits.  We have set up an arrangement with Franciscan Family Practice Residency to see our newborns and inpatients at Franciscan Health Indianapolis.  Additionally, we have arranged with Community Hospital for Hospitalists on staff at Community to see our newborns and inpatients at Community Hospital.

Please schedule a newborn weight check visit for 2-3 days post discharge from the hospital so we can see your newborn in the office.  We will also begin doing circumcisions in the office at the newborn one week well visit within the next month.

Please let us know if you have any questions, and thank you for allowing us to care for your children!

All of our flu vaccines have arrived including the flumist for regular insurance patients! Medicaid is not offering flumist this year.

If you already have an upcoming appointment, we can provide flu shots during that appointment for you and all your children during that visit.

We are scheduling appointments throughout the day for families to get vaccinated.

So, call today to get your flu shots and get protected for the winter season!

Dear Patients & Parents,

 At Clown Pediatrics, one of our goals is to provide you the best possible care for your children at convenient times for you and your family. By offering extended hours, we help you avoid unnecessary costs associated with visits to the Immediate Care or Emergency Room and time off work. In order to ensure we can continue to provide these extended hours of care, we will be increasing the rates on all our after hour visits effective October 1, 2018. 

 There will be an extra $20 fee per visit for any sick appointments between 6-8 pm on Monday through Thursday and from 9 am – 12 noon on Saturdays. We will also be charging an additional $20 for Well Child Visits beginning October 1 of 2019 during the extended hours.

 This increase will enable us to continue to provide the quality and breadth of care you love. Thanks for your understanding, and thank you for being such amazing patients.
