COVID-19 Pandemic Protocols:

We clean rooms frequently between patients, and we wear masks for all well visits and use needed personal protective equipment for all sick visits. All of our physicians are fully vaccinated against CoVID-19.
- Face masks: We require that adults and children 3 years and older wear cloth face coverings or face masks while in our office. Children 2 years old and younger should not wear face masks.
- Telemedicine: We offer telemedicine consultations for certain conditions. Carolina Kids Pediatrics doctors will perform all of our telemedicine visits. Click the "Now Offering Virtual Telemedicine" link right under our listed office hours in the blue space above for more information.
- Prenatal classes: Our prenatal classes have appropriate social distancing measures in place. Please wear face masks when attending prenatal classes, and please do not attend if you are sick. You still have the option of scheduling individual prenatal consultation or "virtual" prenatal consultations via telemedicine also.
- Testing: If CoVID-19 testing is needed, we can perform this at Carolina Kids. Two types of testing are available:
- Rapid CoVID testing results are available within 15 minutes (performed in our office) If you receive this test, please review the EUA fact sheet for patients
- More sensitive PCR-based testing is sent to an outside laboratory and results will not be available the same day
