Coined as “The Uber of Pediatricians,” DoseSpot customer, Baby Doctor is making waves with their latest on-demand services connecting parents with doctors.

Does your child have a sinus infection? A stomachache? How about a sore throat? Baby Doctor has you covered. Happy, healthy kids is their company’s mission and by implementing a service of boutique-style, personalized house calls, they are able to provide just that.

By using their website or app, parents are able to request a visit from a Pediatrician, Pediatric Nurse Practitioner, or Family Nurse Practitioner for a variety of symptoms a child may be experiencing and the provider appears at their home within 60 minutes or less.

This not only benefits parents, but insurance providers and emergency rooms throughout the city as well since it collectively saves them all time and money.

An average ER visit can cost upwards of $1,500 and two-thirds of ER visits aren’t true emergencies, but Baby Doctor offers their on-demand services for a fraction of the cost. Though they’re not considered an in-network provider, at least not yet anyways, Baby Doctor offers an itemized receipt for parents to submit to their insurance company for out-of-network reimbursement.

With their 50 board certified providers in Manhattan, Baby Doctor is hoping to expand to Brooklyn, the Bronx, and Queens by end of 2016, with further expansion into New Jersey come 2017.

By paving the way with their unique delivery model, Baby Doctor is devoted to providing an efficient, personalized and affordable means of healthcare to parents for their children, all while broadening patient engagement and levels of satisfaction.

Stay tuned for this blossoming company as it will undoubtedly remain at the forefront of on-demand innovation.
