Are You Expecting?

Congratulations!

Whether your are expecting your first baby or welcoming another child into your family, congratulations! Along with the preparations of pregnancy and stocking up on baby supplies at home, you are bound to have questions about what to expect after delivery. That's where we come in!

We are here for you and your family.

We are excited and honored that you are considering us for your child’s care. It is always special for us to be trusted by parents to assist in their baby's health and development. The continuity of care that we provide gives us the opportunity to watch a baby grow and develop through young adulthood is one of the primary reasons that we all feel privileged to work in pediatrics.

Before Your Baby Is Born

Before delivery, you are welcome to call the office to schedule a "Meet & Greet" visit in order to see the clinic and meet with a provider. This is a good way for you to get a good sense of our office before your baby arrives.

In The Hospital

When the happy day has arrived and you are being admitted to the Labor & Delivery Unit, you can tell the hospital staff that you have chosen us as your baby's pediatrician.

If you are delivering at Munson Medical Center in Traverse City, one of our providers will come to the hospital to provide care for your baby throughout your admission.

If you are delivering at another facility, once you declare TAPAC as your baby's primary care office, we typically will receive a summary of your baby's hospital stay from the hospital. That being said, it may be helpful for you to bring your baby's discharge paperwork to your first office visit.
