Overall

LOVE LOVE LOVE

My children use to see this provider and she was amazing. She really cares about her patients and creates a comfortable atmosphere for them, which is really important when they are children.
I would definitely recommend her to everyone; I have never met a better pediatrician!
My children saw her for years until we moved and it was no longer easy for us to see her.

General Practitioners

Pediatric Care
Waterville Pediatrics Office Policy Our goal is to provide and maintain a good physician-patient relationship. Letting you know in advance of our office policy allows for a good flow of communication and enables us to achieve our goal. Please read each section carefully and initial. If you have any questions, do not hesitate to ask a member of our staff.
Primary Care
The healthy children’s web site by AAP has the answers you are looking for. Click here to be directed to the “conditions” part of the site. Use the alphabetÂ bar or search for your child’s complaint (ear pain, throat pain, cough, runny nose) and read the AAP recommendations for treatment and when to call your primary care physician.
Emergency Care
Acute illnesses require different levels of care based on severity. For common childhood illnesses, your child will probably only need to visit the pediatrician or nurse practitioner for treatment. If your child’s illness becomes more serious, you may need to seek emergency care, or the provider will admit them to the hospital. Unlike chronic conditions, acute illnesses can be resolved or cured.
Immunizations
If you transfer to another physician, we will provide a copy of your immunization record and your last visit on disk to your physician, free of charge, as a courtesy to you. We need 48 hours’ notice.

Attention Deficit Hyperactivity Disorder (ADHD)
HealthyChildren.org publishes a list of mobile apps for parents and families including KidsDoc, Car Seat Check, ADHD Tracker 1.0, Iron Kids and Child Health Tracker
Mental Health
If your child is sick, please call our office, 207-873-5437, and one of our fabulous triage nurses will schedule a telemedicine visit and send you a link to your provider’s telemedicine “room”. This link will be sent by email or by text, whichever you prefer. We are also offering telemedicine visits for medication checks, behavioral/ mental health visits, and some illness visits.

Skin Cancer
Application → Apply sunscreen 30 minutes before exposure to the sun to give it time to penetrate the skin. Give special attention to the areas most likely to become sunburned, such as the nose, ears, cheeks, and shoulders. Reapply sunscreen every 3 to 4 hours, as well as after swimming or profuse sweating. A waterproof sunscreen stays on for about 30 minutes in the water. Most people apply too little sunscreen, be sure to apply a generous amount with each application. The best way to prevent skin cancer is to prevent sunburns.
