The Division of Plastic, Reconstructive and Oral Surgery offers a variety of services at locations throughout the region in addition to our Main Campus in Philadelphia, including our Specialty Care Centers in Pennsylvania (Brandywine, Bucks County, Abington or King of Prussia) and New Jersey (Princeton or Voorhees).

You can speed your visit by bringing this information with you to your appointment. Please follow this checklist for your convenience, and be sure to let us know if you have any questions.

• Referring physician information, including name, address and phone number. If your family physician is different from your referring physician, please bring this information for both.
• Immunization (vaccination) records from your child's physician.

Additional testing and diagnosis

Depending on your child's condition or injury, additional testing and evaluation may be needed. This may include imaging studies, blood tests or consultations with other specialists.

Please note that you may need additional referral forms from your insurance company or your child's primary care doctor for these services. If your primary doctor is referring your child, your child may need to see a Children's Hospital physician before we can order any of these tests.

Please feel free to contact us if you have any questions about your child's appointment.
