LAKE SUCCESS, N.Y., Nov. 17, 2014 /PRNewswire-USNewswire/ -- PM Pediatrics, an award-winning provider of specialized pediatric urgent care, serving patients from cradle through college, will open its doors today in Springfield, NJ. The new location marks PM Pediatrics' fourth New Jersey practice, and 14th overall in the New York Metropolitan area. The 6,000 square foot office is located at 355 Route 22 East. PM Pediatrics of Springfield features a Wild West theme, and offers on-site x-ray and lab, 12 exam rooms and two procedure rooms. Dr. Michael Bachman is the Medical Director, overseeing all medical operations for the practice. Dr. Bachman is board-certified in both Pediatrics and Pediatric Emergency Medicine, and also serves as the company's New Jersey Regional Medical Director.  

The Springfield location is open 365 days a year, on weekdays from 4pm to Midnight, and on weekends and holidays from Noon to Midnight.

"We are excited to further our expansion in New Jersey," said Dr. Bachman. "Our Springfield team looks forward to providing PM Pediatrics' unparalleled, specialized urgent care to the families in and around Union County."

The company's newest office joins the following PM Pediatrics locations throughout New York and New Jersey:

• New Jersey: Holmdel, Livingston and North Brunswick
• Long Island: Syosset, Selden, North Babylon and Carle Place
• New York City: Queens (Bayside and Forest Hills) and Brooklyn (Cobble Hill)
• Westchester: Mamaroneck and Yonkers
• Rockland: Spring Valley

In early 2015, PM Pediatrics is set to open two new practices in Paramus, New Jersey, and Midwood/Brooklyn.

Each state-of-the-art office is staffed by Pediatric Emergency Specialists, including board-certified pediatric emergency physicians and pediatricians, who provide care and treatment for a broad array of illness and injuries including asthma, fever and other infections, dehydration, sprains and fractures, wounds requiring stitches, and much more. PM Pediatrics features on-site digital x-ray which produces high resolution images read by a board-certified pediatric radiologist, and sent easily to a patient's pediatrician or orthopedist. They also feature a comprehensive laboratory on-site, which performs blood and urine tests and a variety of rapid tests for infectious diseases.

Unlike traditional urgent care practices, PM Pediatrics treats children and young adults exclusively, with physicians, nurses, equipment and an office environment all tailored to provide the best possible care for pediatric patients. They believe strongly in a child's medical home and do not offer wellness visits, physicals, school check-ups or immunizations. PM Pediatrics takes special care to send each patient's medical record to their primary care provider the day of their visit, ensuring timely follow-up and continuity of care. Each location also has access to specialists such as plastic surgeons or orthopedists, as needed. All PM Pediatrics practices are uniquely themed and feature TVs in every exam room, creating a warm, welcoming setting for kids and adults alike. This model of care, comfort and convenience has been enthusiastically received with over 550,000 patient visits to date.
