ABC Pediatrics' credo is "where we treat you like family," and they do that by making every effort to view and treat each child as a person, not just a patient. Since Dr. Moskowitz (a.k.a. Dr. Pete) is a daddy himself, he understands that emergencies can - and do - happen outside of regular office hours. He is happy to take calls after hours for urgent medical concerns; just dial the office number above and select extension 12. If the medical matter is not urgent, a message can be left at that extension and patients can expect Dr. Pete to call them back the next business day.

Dr. Moskowitz has hospital privileges at St. Mark's Hospital (in the nursery) and Primary Children's Medical Center. His website has information about all kinds of topics relevant to kids/parenting: sun protection, bicycle safety, immunizations, teething, potty training, healthy eating, autism, learning disabilities, social skills, etc.
