Our Philosophy
Dr.
Gregory cares for newborn through teens with problems and
diseases that effect the digestive system and liver. We
strive to provide the highest level of care to each patient
that comes through our door. Dr. Gregory will work to identify
and understand the problems the child is having and then
put together a plan for that child and family to help them
on the road to a healthy, normal life.
We respect the confidence you have placed in GI Consultants
and will at all times regard our relationship with the utmost
trust, respect, and confidentiality. Should you at anytime
have comments regarding the care provided by our doctors
or staff, please feel free to contact our Executive Director
at (775) 329-4600.
Your Child’s First Visit
Appointments may be scheduled by calling the office during
regular office hours, Monday through Friday from 8:00 a.m.
to 5:00 p.m.
Your child’s first visit with Dr. Gregory will probably
be the longest. Please plan to be at our office for at least
one hour. We ask that you arrive 30 minutes ahead of your
child’s appointment to complete medical history and
insurance information. You will need to bring the following
information along to your child’s first appointment–unless
our office has already received it:
- Referral
from your child’s primary care provider for an office
visit.
- Medical
records from your child’s primary care provider.
- Results
of any previous evaluations, including x-rays (bring films
not just the reports.)
- Any
information pertaining to prior pediatric GI evaluations,
i.e., lab tests, procedures, procedure notes, biopsy results,
etc.
Due to limited space and the ability to maximize your time
with the doctor, please plan on bringing only the scheduled
child to the appointment.
After
Hours Care
If your child has an urgent GI health care need outside
of our regular hours, please contact your primary care physician,
and your call will be referred to us as necessary. You can
feel confident your child will receive the highest level
of care no matter when you need it. If it is a medical emergency,
call 911 or go immediately to the Emergency Department of
your local hospital.
Waiting
Dr Gregory will make every attempt to stay on schedule.
It is difficult, however, to guarantee you will not have
to wait past your appointment time. Occasionally emergencies
do occur which may further affect the timeliness of the
schedule. We will attempt to inform you of such delays.
If waiting will be an inconvenience to you, we will reschedule
your appointment to another time.
