Flower What Can I Expect?
If your child has already been scheduled for care at Children's Hospital Boston, you will want to know what to expect. We're here to guide you through this process and make the experience less anxiety-provoking.
Expert medical care
Our pediatric urology programs and services are among the best in the world. Find out more about the program or service for your child, or about the diagnostic evaluation or test that your child may be scheduled for.

Family Support
Beyond our expert medical care, Children's offers you and your family many services to support your needs, whether it be a place to sleep, support groups or financial help. Learn more about our family support services.

Team of experts
Nurses and physicians at Children's have access to one of the largest resource centers for pediatric care. Should your child require involvement of other specialists, his or her pediatric urologist will arrange for a referral and a follow-up appointment. We try as much as possible to coordinate care among specialists and will do everything possible to set up appointments on the same day.

Comforting, supportive environment
The length or type of hospital admission (outpatient procedure or inpatient admission) will depend on the procedure or care your child needs.

Help preparing your child
Once you learn more about what to expect at Children's, it's important that your child, too, feels calm and assured. Learn more about how to talk to your child before coming to the hospital.
