Other Services

If you’re concerned that your child may be having trouble focusing or paying attention, our trained professional mental health staff can provide an initial evaluation to help identify possible underlying causes.

If a diagnosis such as ADHD is made, our team will partner with you and your child to create a personalized care plan — offering ongoing support, follow-up visits, and medication management as needed to help your child succeed at home, in school, and in daily life.

Our practice provides comprehensive asthma and allergy management  for our patients. Our pediatricians are trained in the diagnosis and management of childhood asthma and allergies.

If your child has a chronic illness or disability, your journey may sometimes feel like the road less traveled. You may find yourself coordinating care among multiple professionals and specialists — all while trying to balance everyday life.

At Priority Care Pediatrics, we’re here to walk alongside you. Our Patient Care Coordination Team is a dedicated group of nurses and staff who work closely with families and providers to help manage children with complex medical needs. They assist with specialist referrals, care plans, medication management, and communication across healthcare teams, ensuring your child’s care remains seamless and connected.

We’re committed to providing the information, guidance, and support you need to navigate your child’s medical, developmental, and emotional needs with confidence and compassion.

At Priority Care Pediatrics, ear piercing is offered in our office and performed by our trained nursing staff in a clean, safe, and caring environment. Our goal is to make this simple, elective procedure as comfortable and low-risk as possible for your child.

We recommend scheduling ear piercing about two weeks after your child’s first round of routine childhood immunizations, which is typically around 2½ months of age. Waiting until this time allows your baby’s immune system to develop and their ears to grow enough for accurate, well-placed piercings.

We love welcoming new babies into the world! At Priority Care Pediatrics, we begin your newborn’s care right in the hospital and continue to provide comprehensive, coordinated care as your baby grows.

Our physicians currently round at St. Luke’s North Hospital, North Kansas City Hospital, and Liberty Hospital, allowing us to provide seamless care from birth through every milestone that follows.

Our professional team works closely with families to support every aspect of your child’s health — from those first precious days through every stage of growth.

We typically see newborns in our office within 2–3 days after hospital discharge to ensure your baby is feeding well, gaining weight, and off to a healthy start.

Our Nurse Visits make it easy to take care of quick or routine needs—without scheduling a full doctor’s appointment. During these visits, your child will be seen by one of our experienced pediatric nurses for services such as:

• Immunizations
• Ear piercing
• EKGs
• Weight checks
• Other provider-approved nursing services

Some services may require that your child has been seen recently by their provider. If that’s the case, our team will let you know when you schedule your appointment.

Our nursing team works closely with our providers to ensure your child receives safe, friendly, and personalized care—no matter how small the visit may seem.

Children may face medical conditions that benefit from the expertise of a pediatric specialist in a specific field. At Priority Care Pediatrics, we emphasize the coordination of care among all healthcare providers involved in your child’s treatment.

Our team works closely with specialists to ensure that every aspect of your child’s medical care — from diagnosis to follow-up — is connected, well-communicated, and centered around your child’s overall well-being.

For your convenience, you may request prescription refills through our patient portal or by calling our office directly. Our team is dedicated to providing timely, coordinated care and ensuring your child’s medications are available when needed.

To ensure safety and accuracy, please allow up to 5 business days for refill processing. Refills are not handled after hours or on weekends.

Priority Care Pediatrics follows all state and federal laws regarding controlled substances, including prescription monitoring and refill intervals. Some medications may require additional time, follow-up visits, or documentation before they can be refilled.

Regular physicals are an important part of preventive pediatric care. Scheduling a sports or school physical gives your child’s doctor the opportunity to evaluate their overall health and fitness, review medical history, and ensure they are ready and safe to participate in sports, school, or other activities.

At Priority Care Pediatrics, we take the time to address any concerns, discuss injury prevention, and help your child stay active, healthy, and confident throughout the year.
