🍎 📚 Heading into the new school year means new classrooms, new friends—and more germs!

That’s why regular handwashing is one of the best back-to-school habits your child can build.

✨ Washing for at least 20 seconds (singing “Happy Birthday” twice) helps protect them and their classmates from colds, flu, and other illnesses.

✨ Encourage kids to wash before eating lunch, after recess, and when they get home from school to keep germs from spreading.

📣 Important Announcement for Our Valued Patients and Families

We’re excited to announce that beginning Monday, August 25th, our clinic will be transitioning to a new Electronic Health Record (EHR) system designed specifically for pediatric care! 🙌

This change reflects our continued commitment to providing the highest quality healthcare experience for your child. The new system offers several family-friendly benefits, including:

✅ Faster, smoother check-ins with fewer paper forms

✅ An improved patient portal for easy access to visit summaries, test results, referral information, and patient education resources

✅ Streamlined billing and insurance processing

✅ A more connected and efficient care experience for your child

We appreciate your patience during this transition period. Our staff is here to help with any questions you may have about accessing your child’s new patient portal or navigating check-in.

✨Please note: This change applies to ALL current patients. For those 18 and older, this message is directed to you directly.

If you have any concerns or would like assistance with your new portal access, please don’t hesitate to reach out to our front desk team. 👉 816-792-1170

Thank you for trusting us with your child’s care! 💜💙🧡🩷
