Things You Should Know
If you are expecting…
Congratulations! We are looking forward to meeting you and your newborn. We are currently accepting newborns into our practice.
If you would like to meet our staff (hyperlink “our staff” to meet the docs) prior to the delivery of your baby please contact our office to arrange a prenatal visit.
We care for newborns at Parkland Medical Center, so if you are delivering there we’ll meet you and your baby shortly after he or she is born and see your newborn each morning until you go home. If you are delivering at another facility and wish to choose Londonderry Pediatrics to be your new child’s medical care provider, simply call our office at 603 437 1003 and schedule an appointment as directed by your delivering facilities medical staff.
Typically your newborn’s first office visit will be 1-3 days after leaving the hospital. Please call our office to schedule this appointment when you are discharged. To save time at your first appointment, here are some forms (hyperlink “forms” to forms page) you may want to review before your visit
We look forward to having you and your newborn join the Londonderry Pediatrics Family!
After hours
We can be reached for urgent matters after hours at 603 437 1003. While we are happy to assist you and your sick child after hours, we ask that you reserve non-urgent calls to regular business hours (hyperlink to hours). Routine questions, scheduling issues, and prescription refills should be discussed during the time that we are open. Thank you for understanding.

Urgent Cares
Emergency Departments
- Elliot Hospital (http://elliothospital.org/website/traumaservices.php), Manchester NH
Lab and X ray
Lab: there are four local venues for blood drawing and lab work; Parkland Medical Center (http://parklandmedicalcenter.com/service/laboratory-services), Elliot Hospital (http://elliothospital.org/website/labservices.php), Quest Diagnostics (http://www.questdiagnostics.com/home.html) and LabCorp (https://www.labcorp.com/wps/portal/). Each of these have multiple sites for blood drawing, please use the one most convenient to you as each will send us the results. Parkland Medical Center, Quest and LabCorp each have a direct electronic link to the Electronic Health Record (EHR) system at Londonderry Pediatrics. Checking with your insurance carrier to be sure the lab company you choose is “in network” would be prudent. Please check the vendor’s website for hours and location.
X ray: there are four local venues for radiology; Parkland Medical Center (http://parklandmedicalcenter.com/service/tests-and-imaging), Elliot Hospital (http://elliothospital.org/website/diagnosticimaging.php), Derry Imaging (http://www.derryimaging.com) and Salem Radiology (http://www.salemradnh.com). Please use the one most convenient to you, however, checking with your insurance carrier to be sure your selection is “in network” would be prudent. Each will send the results to Londonderry Pediatrics, however, only Parkland Medical Center has a direct electronic link with our facility. Each vender will provide high quality services, but if you have a high deductible insurance plan or are paying out of pocket, traditionally, Derry Imaging and Salem Radiology are the more frugal choices. Please check the vendor’s website for hours and location.
