Complimentary Meet and Greets
As you prepare for your labor and delivery journey, we understand how overwhelming it can be to choose your child’s pediatrician. That’s why we offer a complimentary Meet & Greet with all our pediatricians for expecting parents to find a provider who aligns with their parenting preferences and values. This proactive approach helps create a supportive and reassuring environment for your journey into parenthood. Give us a call (linked) to schedule your personal Meet and Greet.
Your baby will be seen by a neonatologist or hospitalist during your hospital stay. We would like to see you within 24-72 hours (1-3 days) of discharge from the hospital.
Your first visit to the office will be busy! Your pediatrician will spend time learning about your delivery and your first few days as a new family. Your baby will receive a thorough check-up and explanations on any unique findings. We’re prepared for lots of questions so don’t hesitate to bring a list.
Yes, we do offer lactation consultations, but we also have newborn care specialists that can answer any questions regarding the newborn period. Our sister facility, Bella Bambino Newborn Care Center supports new families, assesses the health of the new mom and helps with feeding- breast feeding, bottle feeding, pumping or a combination of all! They also offer a monthly Newborn Care 101 class that helps with any questions you might have about your newborn in the first weeks of life. To schedule an appointment or learn more information about the Newborn class, please see below.

About Vaccinations
Vaccines are safe and effective lifesaving treatments. There is no evidence that vaccines cause autism or other developmental disabilities.
The pediatricians and pediatric advanced practitioners of Pediatric Partners of Augusta, LLC follow the vaccination schedule published by the Centers for Disease Control and the American Academy of Pediatrics. See the schedule below.
Vaccinating children and young adults may be the single most important health-promoting intervention we can do for our children. While we understand there are some controversies about vaccines, we agree with the experts in the field and recommend following the recommended schedule. Not vaccinating is unsafe and can expose children to vaccine-preventable diseases. This puts both the unvaccinated child as well as other children in the community at risk.
Should you have questions please discuss with your healthcare provider before your visit.
