Boston Children's Health Physicians | Developmental Behavioral Pediatrics

Developmental Pediatrics is now offering virtual visits. Here are some tips to prepare for your telehealth appointment:

• Have a list of your child’s symptoms, including how long they have occurred, how severe they are, and whether they are getting better, worse, or staying the same.
• Keep a list of all medications your child takes, the doses, and how often.
• Make notes of any changes in your child’s behavior, mood, or activity level.
• Write down any questions you want to ask so you don’t forget them.
• Have some key tools available, including a thermometer, flashlight (to look at child’s throat), and your child’s weight or a scale.
• Know how to log in or initiate the telehealth visit.
• Enable the microphone, speaker, and camera ahead of time to make sure they all work.
• For the appointment, have your child with you in a well-lit room that is quiet and free from distractions.
• Submit all new patient intake forms along with your insurance card to DevelopmentalPediatrics@bchphysicians.org for review prior to appointment.
• Have your child's height and weight ready to be collected.
