Nora, Age 2
Incident: Nora took a fall and split open her chin. Her mom took her to PM Pediatrics, where they recommended she call Dr.STITCH.
“I was told by PM Pediatrics they could not stitch up my 2-year-old daughter, saying the wound was too jagged. They explained the Dr.Stitch service. I was hesitant, so they also told me I could go to my local ER. I decided to call Dr.Stitch and spoke with Amy who was very helpful. She was able to get back to me within 10 minutes and told me a surgeon was just getting out of surgery and was going to wait for me at the hospital he was in. Although it was about a half-hour drive to that specific hospital, the service was great. My daughter was called back into a room before I could even register her in the ER. The field was all set up and the doctor was ready to go. He stitched her up pretty quickly. I got in and out of that hospital in 45 minutes. I imagine I would have had to wait much longer had I just went to my local ER. If I ever have to deal with the possibility of stitches again, I will be calling them right away.”
