In Hospital Visit
A pediatrician from East Lake Pediatrics will see your baby daily at Mease Countryside Hospital. A staff pediatrician will see your baby daily at all other local hospitals. During the hospital stay your baby will receive the following:
Vitamin K shot
Hearing Test
Newborn State Screening Blood Test
Circumcision
If requested, one of our pediatricians will perform a circumcision on your son prior to discharge from Mease Countryside Hospital. Some insurance companies do not pay for this service. If that is the case, arrangements can be made with our office for payment prior to the procedure.
