Announcements

Telemedicine Visits now Available!

Conejo Children’s Medical Group is excited to announce that we are now offering TeleVisits, a more convenient appointment option, which allows patients to have a visit with their medical provider from the comfort of their home or office. To schedule a TeleVisit with our office, call our office at (805) 499-5525. (Please note that in the event of an emergency you should not use TeleVisits, but call 911 to seek immediate medical help.) You can book a TeleVisits appointment for most visits with the exception of routine checkups/physicals. Please note this is a billable service. Due to the unique circumstances created by COVID 19, your health insurance should cover the cost of the visit, but you may be still responsible for copay costs. Ensure you are enabled for our Patient Portal and know your username and password when your appointment is booked.

We still recommend in person appointments for annual check ups, especially for young children and those visits where vaccines are due.

Please feel free to call our office if you have any questions or concerns.

COVID 19/Coronavirus Update

Here are our current precautions:

-If you think your child has symptoms or has been exposed to a known case of Coronavirus/COVID 19, please contact us by phone for further instructions or notify the staff of your concern when scheduling an appointment.

-Patients with mild respiratory symptoms who do not fall into high risk groups should not be routinely tested for Covid-19. They should be cared for at home as you normally would for a mild illness. In addition, ill persons should isolate at home until there is no fever without the use of fever reducing medications and there has been improvement in respiratory symptoms (cough, shortness of breath) for 3 days, AND it has been at least 7 days since the symptoms first appeared.

-Broadscale testing for novel coronavirus is not currently available. We follow current recommendations for priority testing and will reserve testing for very ill patients and/or those with specific risk factors. The results can take more than 6 days.

-Local Emergency Rooms and Urgent Cares are also using specific criteria to guide testing. We do not recommend going there unless your child is having difficulty breathing or is very ill.

-To limit patient to patient interactions within the office, we are scheduling well child checks in the mornings only, and seeing ill patients in the afternoon. Upon arrival for a well visit, both the patient and parent/guardian will be temperature screened prior to entering the office. Should a temperature of 100.4 or higher be detected, the office visit will take place in our outdoor exam rooms or may be rescheduled.

-Please call to notify us when you arrive for you appointment, but please wait in the car. We will call you when a room is available or direct you a temporary outdoor exam room, if indicated.

-Please limit visitors to our office, especially grandparents who are high risk. We request 1 adult and 1 child, if feasible. Anyone that has respiratory symptoms will be required to wear a mask (provided) during the entire office visit.

-We are also offering virtual visits via the above healow app.

Thank you for your understanding,
