Newborn Information

Congratulations New Parents!

If you have not yet come into the office for your first visit with your new baby, please click here to print copies of the forms you will need to complete in the office prior to your appointment. Printing the forms from this Web site will enable you to complete the forms in the comfort of your own home. The forms you should print are under the category "new patients."

Preparing for your new baby is a very thrilling time of your life and you want to make sure you’re doing everything that is best for your child. As most new parents do, you probably have many questions. The pediatricians at the Alliance want to help during this wonderful experience.

The information in this section is designed to help you in these early exciting and exhausting weeks while you and your baby are getting acquainted with each other. While this is general information, each infant and family is unique, and our goal is to work together with you to keep your children happy and healthy.

We are honored that you chose us to be your child’s pediatrician. We want to provide the highest quality pediatric care to you and your child.
