It is very common for toddlers and preschool-aged children in Los Angeles and Beverly Hills to have as many as 8 to 12 colds, respiratory infections, and/or stomach bugs a year. School-age children and preteens average five or six illnesses annually; teens and adults may have two to three colds or illnesses per year. Upper respiratory infections, Asthma exacerbations, Croup, Fevers, Vomiting, Ear infections, Strep Infections, Skin infections, and other ailments seem to always befall your child at times that aren’t that convenient for a busy schedule.
Not all illnesses respect the 9-5 business day! It is important to obtain timely and expert care for a sick child. Dr. Joshua Sherman, MD, and KidCierge Pediatric Care are there for you 24/7 with Pediatric Sick Visits in Los Angeles. We will see and treat your sick child WHEN and WHERE you need it. Whether by phone, video, in office, or at home, we will be there!

Benefits of Concierge Pediatric Sick Visits in Los Angeles
- You or your child will be seen by Pediatric Doctors and Pediatric Emergency Medicine Doctors who are experienced, board-certified, recognized as top of their field, and very child-friendly and professional. Your child will not be seen by a physician extender or new graduate.
- We provide the care WHEN YOU need it. We know you are busy, and life is full of surprises. We are here to help you whenever. Before business hours, during business hours, or after business hours in Los Angeles.
- We provide care WHERE YOU need it. This could be on a video screen, in our offices, your offices, your home, or your hotel room in Los Angeles or Beverly Hills.
- We provide an easy, safe, and secure patient portal from which you can access all patient records and results.
- We offer diagnostic services such as EKG, Full Lab Services, Blood counts, electrolyte panels, bilirubin levels, Strep testing, Urine testing, COVID/FLU/RSV testing, enhanced respiratory panels, Mono testing, and more!
- Most pediatric practices and urgent cares work on an insurance-based repayment model. This means they need to see tremendous amounts of patients to generate enough revenue to cover their expenses. It is simple math. Just like selling hot dogs. The problem is that KIDS ARE NOT HOTDOGS. We should not think of medicine the same way we think of a hot dog stand! Our model is direct to the patient. No insurance. Therefore, we see fewer patients, have more time for the patients we see, time to build relationships, time to provide care the way it should be delivered, without being rushed or “burnt out.” It’s a Win-Win!
