After Hours

What To Do After Hours

Should you have medical questions about your child when our office is closed, please check out the "Is Your Child Sick?" section on our home page. This section contains over 200 of the most common childhood health concerns. If however, that does not provide the information you need, call our office at 303-216-0333 and the answering service will arrange for the telephone triage nurses from Children's Hospital Colorado to assist you with your concerns.


If needed, the nurse will page our on-call physician, who are available 24/7. Denver West Pediatrics shares this responsibility with the pediatricians at Pediatrics West in Wheat Ridge.


If your child needs to be seen more urgently, we recommend taking them to one of the Children's Hospital Colorado urgent cares or emergency departments.
