Post Road Pediatrics staff members

Becoming a Patient

To register your newborn baby and schedule their first visit, please call our main number 978-443-6005 and select option 3 to be connected to our front desk staff.

In order to register your child and schedule your first visit, we require a copy of your child's complete medical record (immunizations, growth charts, all previous pediatricians' notes, specialists notes, etc). Please contact your previous pediatrician's office to request that your complete medical record be transferred to us. 

Once you are registered here, please update your insurance with the name of your new primary care physician (MUST BE DONE BEFORE YOUR FIRST OFFICE VISIT!)

**When calling our office, dial extension 120 for New Patients

Translation Services

At Post Road Pediatrics, we pride ourselves on providing equitable, patient centered care to all who are part of our practice. If you or your child would prefer to communicate with their clinician in a language other than English, please let a staff member know prior to your scheduled appointment, and we will happily utilize our translation service to ensure your experience is as stress free and comprehensive as possible.

Accepted Insurances

At Post Road Pediatrics we accept most commercial insurance plans, as well as the BMC Wellsense Boston Children's ACO plan through MassHealth.

We do not accept the following plans:

  • Health Safety Net
  • MassHealth Limited
  • Cigna Local Plus
  • Fallon Direct
  • Tufts: Steward Community Choice
  • Tufts Health Direct Plans (as of 1/1/2025)
  • Medicare
  • Mass General Brigham Select HMO
  • Tricare Direct Care
  • Health New England

Tufts Health Direct Plan Update Effective 1/1/2025

Unfortunately, our practice will no longer be considered in-network for patients and families currently enrolled in Tufts Health Direct plans as of January 1, 2025.  Tufts will offer a 30 day continuity of care period for primary care services, and patients can see their current PCP on an in-network basis until January 30, 2025. After that date, they will not cover or pay for your visits with us. In order to continue receiving care at our office, you would need to enroll in another Massachusetts Health Connector Plan for which we are in-network. If you are unable to change your plan, you would need to find a new pediatrician or self-pay for your visits.

A letter has been sent to all affected families regarding this change. If you have further questions, please reach out to our office manager. 

At Your First Visit

  1. Please bring your insurance card to every visit, including your first visit.
  2. Co-payments are due at the time of the visit. We accept cash, check, Mastercard, and Visa.
  3. Please arrive 15 minutes early to complete the registration paperwork.

Vaccine Policy

The physicians at Post Road Pediatrics believe that fully vaccinating your child is one of the most important things we can do to protect your child’s health. We follow the standard vaccine schedule recommended by the American Academy of Pediatrics and the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention.

We understand that the decision to vaccinate may be a difficult one for some parents. If you should have concerns, please discuss them with one of the physicians prior to your child’s visit. We will do everything we can to reassure you that vaccinating your child according to the recommended schedule is the best way to protect your child.

To best protect all of the families we care for, we may ask you to find another provider if you refuse to vaccinate your child despite our recommendations.
