Getting Acquainted

Please feel free to call our office if you have additional questions about us. Or, if you prefer, call today to schedule a prenatal consultation meeting. Dr. Edelstein does prenatals one evening a month with a small group of expectant parents where you can see our office, meet the doctor and find out what to expect when your little one arrives. You can call our dedicated newborn line at 561-357-8993 option 1005.

Upon Arrival

When your baby is born at an affiliated hospital, simply tell your obstetrician and the hospital staff that you have chosen Edelstein Pediatrics as your child’s pediatrician. Our office will be notified of your baby’s birth by the hospital staff. Upon discharge, please contact our office about scheduling your baby’s first visit to our office, usually 24-48 hours after discharge.
