Most pediatricians do accept new patients. A pediatrician will care for your child from their initial wellness visit throughout their teenage years, so it is important to make the correct decision when selecting a pediatrician. Many new parents begin to look for a pediatrician roughly 3 months before the baby’s due date to give them plenty of time to make an informed decision and ensure the pediatrician in question is accepting new patients, as well as check with your insurance company to confirm coverage.
 
Patients should bring their hospital documents, along with an insurance card, their partner (or alternate primary caregiver), extra diapers, feeding supplies, wipes, pacifiers, a change of clothes, and an infant growth chart if received from a different pediatrician in the hospital. Another great preparation is a list of questions.
