About

Madigan is committed to ensuring we provide timely access to medical care for all of our pediatric patients. Madigan's Pediatric clinic has returned to near normal scheduling practices. 

• Newborn care remains unchanged.  We are seeing newborns for their first clinic visit at 2-5 days of life and 2 weeks of life.  If your infant was born off post, please call the clinic to schedule the first appointment at (253) 968-3066, option #4.  All infants born at Madigan are scheduled follow up clinic visits at the time of inpatient discharge.

• We are seeing well babies for all recommended visits face to face.  These visits are at 2 months, 4 months, 6 months, 9 months, 12 months, 15 months and 18 months. You will receive a call the day prior to your visit to discuss your child’s health.  Please call to re-schedule the appointment if you or your child is ill. Well baby appointments can be scheduled using the Puget Sound Military Appointing Center at (800) 404-4506.

• We have resumed all 2 to 17 year old well physicals/sports physicals.  Children need 1 physical per year. If your child has been seen in the last 1 year, we will complete your child’s paperwork without an appointment.  You may send in paperwork via the MHS Genesis Patient Portal.  Please make sure to complete the parent portion first.  If your child is due for a physical and immunizations, they will be done at the same appointment.  Please call the clinic directly to schedule these visits at (253) 968-3066, option #4.

• Immunization visits are available 4 days a week.  Immunization only nurse visits are available for any aged child whom needs vaccinations.  Please bring your child’s immunization record to this visit. Please call the clinic directly to schedule these visits at (253) 968-3066, option #4.

• Sick visits:  There are multiple ways for your child to receive care when they are ill.  First, you may call the Nurse Advice Line to speak with a nurse 24 hours a day.  Second, you may call the clinic and speak with one of our Pediatric Registered Nurses who can determine if your child needs to be seen face to face, virtually or simply receive nursing guidance.  You may be asked to take your symptomatic child to the COVID tent for screening prior to the visit.  Thank you for helping prevent the spread of COVID and keep other pediatric patients and our staff healthy! 

• Pre-screening: The Madigan Pediatric clinic is carefully pre-screening all children and their families whom need care in the clinic.  Families will be asked a series of screening questions before the appointment is scheduled, the day prior to the appointment and at check in for the appointment.  If anyone in the household is ill or in quarantine status, please call the clinic prior to arrival for your child’s appointment to determine the best way to care for your child.  We have many ways to care for your child while maintaining a safe environment for all infants, children and staff in our clinic.

• The Madigan Pediatric Clinic has COVID 19 vaccines available for ages 12 years and up who are enrolled to Madigan Pediatric Clinic.  Parents should call the Pediatric Clinic directly at (253) 968-3066, option #4, to schedule a COVID immunization appointment.  If your child aged 12 and up is already scheduled for a well or sick visit, your child can receive the COVID vaccine at this appointment and a separate COVID immunization appointment is not necessary.​
