Children's East is a great resource for those of us with children who don't want to haul them into the main Lawrenceville campus for every little thing!
There seem to be a dozen outpatient services available here. I made sure to take note of the Children's Express Care, which is open Monday-Friday 5-9pm, Saturday 12-8pm, and Sunday 10am-6pm.
However, the reason for our visit was x-rays for our daughter. Originally, we were going to have to do an ultrasound for her, which is appointment only, but it was changed to x-rays instead. The good news about that is the x-rays can be done as a walk-in procedure. The hours are Monday-Friday 8am-12pm and 1-9pm, Saturday 12-8pm, and Sunday 10-6pm. Even though we had some issues with the prescription being faxed over from our pediatrician's office, we were still in and out of the office very quickly, in under an hour, I believe.
I definitely plan on coming back in the future, especially to use the Children's Express Care next time my daughter is sick at night or on the weekend. read more
