Our Office Information

Sick Child?

  

 

We will be contacting those patients whose well care appointments were cancelled
on Friday, Sept. 14th due to the hurricane.  As soon as we have created a schedule
to accomodate those appointments, we will be in touch with you.  Thank you for
your patience. 

 

To Our Oberlin Road Families,

We hope that everyone is having a wonderful summer and getting ready for back to school.  We want you to know that Dr. Emili Mack has decided to explore other opportunities and because of this she will be leaving our practice on
November 10, 2018.  Dr. Mack has been a pediatrician at Oberlin Road Pediatrics for the last ten years.  We appreciate the years of service, excellent care and friendship that Dr. Mack has provided to our families and staff.  
We extend best wishes to Dr. Mack and her family during this transition and the next phase of her career.

BCBS patients:    BCBSNC has made a decision to discontinue their Blue Local Plan in 2019.  Due to this decision
WakeMed has announced they will participate in a new ACA health plan known as  Ambertter of NC.  This plan
will allow patients currently covered by Blue Local to retain access to their current WakeMed physicians, facitlies, etc. 
but only if they switch plans during open enrollment.  Please contact  BCBS for more information.

To all PARENTS/PATIENTS
VERY IMPORTANT!
PLEASE bring your actual insurance card to
 every office VISIT  !we CANNOT ACCEPT a
picture of the INSURANCE CARD on your phone.

 September, October,  November and December  2018 schedules are now open for well child care appointments.   Please call the office to make your Well Child Care Appointments as soon as possible.  You will have a better choice of days and time to fit your schedule.   These appointments go quickly (especially in the summer).  We are scheduling about 3 to 6 months out in time.  Thank you. 

Please make sure you keep us updated with your best contact phone number.  We use these numbers for our automated text (if it's a mobile #) and our telephone reminder calls.  Many of our patients' main contact numbers are "landlines" and are disconnected or their voicemails to these lines are not listened to.  So please keep us updated and sign up for our convenient TEXT notification.  Thank you...          

The Addition of Medical Scribes to Oberlin Road Pediatrics

Oberlin Road Pediatrics is very happy to announce the addition of scribes
to our medical team.  If you have an appointment scheduled with Drs.
Bodenstine, Burleson or Wasserman, you may see a scribe in the room
with them.  Scribes help document the medical office visit so the physician
can spend more time engaged with the patient and family rather than focusing
time looking at the computer screen.

The scribes are specially trained people with an interest in the medical field who
help the doctor document the office visit as accurately and completely as possible.
They are typically students who are interested in pursuing careers as physicians,
physician assistants, or nurses.  The scribes are fully trained in HIPPA (patient
privacy laws).  During sensitive parts of the physical exam, the scribe will either
turn around for younger patients or exit the room for tweens and teens.  Of course,
the patient and family always have the option of asking the scribe not to be a part
of the office visit.

We are excited to add this component to our practice as we strive to continue 
providing the best in pediatric healthcare.

 

 

Oberlin Road Pediatrics has a free library.  As you walk up you will see
it located at the end of the sidewalk.  Please feel free to take a book or
donate a book.  Just make sure all donations are appropriate for children.

 

At this time, The Physicians of Oberlin Road Pediatrics have
decided not to accept babies who are born at Babies and
Company.  This is due to differences in our philosophies to
the approach of care of the newborn.
