We’re here — anytime your child needs us.

When your child is sick or injured, you need to know someone will be there to help. Since illnesses and accidents don't always happen when it's convenient, we provide medical advice, after-hours pediatric care and urgent care services day and night.

Our Sharp Rees-Stealy pediatricians, nurse practitioners, physician assistants and staff are ready to care for your family 24 hours a day, seven days a week.

Appointments and questions.

To schedule or cancel an appointment, please call the Sharp Rees-Stealy Patient Contact Center at 858-499-2701 from 8 am to 5 pm, Monday through Friday.

Our after-hours care services.

We offer after-hours pediatric care daily until 8 pm for those times when your child needs to see the doctor outside of regular office hours. To make an after-hours appointment, call 858-499-2701.

Children are seen by appointment only in the Pediatric After-Hours Clinics at:

• Chula Vista
• Otay Ranch
• Santee
• Sorrento Mesa

Our urgent care services.

Pediatric and adolescent patients may also be seen on a walk-in basis at any Sharp Rees-Stealy Urgent Care Center for acute illness and injuries. Urgent care centers are open daily.

Emergencies.

Since our facilities are equipped to handle urgent illnesses and injuries, an emergency room visit should only be necessary for life threatening problems. Please contact your pediatrician or the on-call pediatrician before visiting an emergency room.
