Whether you’re expecting your first baby 

or you already have children, choosing a 

doctor for your child is an important decision. 

The following are some tips to help you make 

your decision. If you’re pregnant, plan to 

choose your baby’s doctor at least four to 

six weeks before your due date. 

Where to Start 

Do you look for a family medicine physician, a 

pediatrician or a pediatric and internal medicine 

physician (with completed residencies in both 

specialties)? Each one can provide all the care 

your baby or child needs. If you’d like, plan to 

meet with more than one type of doctor before 

making your decision. 

To find a doctor: search & create a list – 

• Check the list provided 

• Call St. Joseph Mercy HealthLine: 800-231-2211 

The healthline representative can give you information 

on doctors who are accepting new patients. You can 

find out the doctor’s gender, medical training and 

credentials, phone number, office hours / location(s) 

and insurance plans they accept. 

• Search our website: stjoeshealth.org 

• Check with your obstetrician or other parents 

for recommendations 

After finding a few names of doctors: 

Contact the doctors’ offices and ask to meet with 

each doctor for more discussion. Ask the doctor 

if there will be a charge for the visit. Some doctors 

have scheduled orientation sessions for parents. 

Note: Not all doctors listed may currently 

be accepting new patients, please 

call the doctor’s office for more details. 

Questions for the Doctor 

Don’t be afraid to ask the doctor lots of questions 

when you come for your visit. Because you’ll trust the 

doctor with your child’s health for many years, he 

or she needs to be someone you feel comfortable 

with. Does the doctor take the time to answer all your 

questions thoroughly? The office visit also gives you 

a chance to survey the waiting room (Is it warm and 

inviting to a child? Is there a children’s play area?) 

and treatment/exam rooms. 

Here are a few questions to get you started: 

• Do you accept my insurance? 

• How do you handle separation of well children 

and sick children in the office? Do you schedule 

well-child visits at times when you wouldn’t 

normally see sick children? 

• How can you be reached after regular office hours, 

evenings or on weekends? 

• Will my child see a doctor for each office visit? 

Do you have a nurse practitioner or physician 

assistant? What are their roles in the office? 

In the hospital? 

• Do you have any partners in your practice who 

might also be seeing my child? 

• If my child requires hospitalization, where would 

you admit him/her? 

If you’re pregnant, also ask: 

• How often will you come to examine 

the baby while he or she is in 

the hospital? 

• Do you perform circumcisions 

on your own patients? 

If so, do you use an 

anesthetic? 

• What are your views 

on breast vs. bottle 

feeding?
