At Cook Children's, we do it all for kids. But taking care of kids means including the whole family. We take the time to listen to you and your child, answer questions and help you navigate the "perils" of parenthood.
We're here to help you with well-child visits, illnesses, behavior problems, learning disorders, or just to answer the questions that all parents have at one time or another. Together we'll get your kids on the path to good health and help you raise happy, well-adjusted children.

Continued care
Referrals
- Referrals to a specialist may be made by your doctor. However, no referrals are made until your child has been seen by his or her primary care physician.
- If you are a member of a managed care plan (HMO), a referral form is required for treatment by a specialist. Allow five to seven working days for the referral to be completed and mailed.
After-hours calls
- After office hours, your call will be answered automatically by our answering service. A message will be taken and transferred to the Cook Children's Health Care System nurse triage system. A nurse will return your call as soon as possible, usually within the hour, to offer input about your child's symptoms. In cases of emergency, your pediatrician will be contacted.
- Please limit after-hours calls to those that you feel are truly urgent. Feeding questions, prescription refills or appointment requests are not considered appropriate after-hours calls. Colds, congestion and constipation generally do not warrant after-hours calls.
