Yes. We recommend maintaining insurance to cover services outside of primary care, such as hospital visits, specialists, labs, or imaging. Your Encanto Pediatrics membership covers your child’s primary care needs, while insurance helps protect you from unexpected, larger medical expenses.

In many cases, yes; but it depends on your plan. Recent changes are making it easier to use HSA/FSA funds for Direct Primary Care. We recommend checking with your plan administrator or tax professional for specific eligibility.

Even healthy children benefit from a strong relationship with their pediatrician! With Encanto Pediatrics, you don’t have to wait days for an appointment or a response. You can simply text, call, or message me directly whenever a question comes up - whether it’s a new symptom, a concern, or just reassurance. This makes it easier to stay proactive, address concerns early, and feel supported, without the barriers of traditional care.

Absolutely! I actually require a meet and greet before any membership. This is a complimentary, no-pressure visit where we can get to know each other, answer your questions, and make sure Encanto Pediatrics is the right fit for your family.

We serve families throughout Central Phoenix and nearby communities, including parts of Scottsdale, Glendale, and Tempe. If you’re unsure whether you’re within our service area, feel free to reach out—we’re happy to help.

As long as you can reach me, your care continues. We can connect by phone or text to assess the situation, and I can help guide next steps, call in a prescription if appropriate, or coordinate care locally if needed.

If I’m traveling, I remain available for communication via text, phone, or telehealth. For planned time away, I’ll always give advance notice and help ensure you have a clear plan and support if anything comes up.

Yes. I will work with families with multiple kids to determine what will work best.

If you are not happy or need to cancel for any reason, you can without penalty. 30 day notice is required. There may be re-enrollment fee or be placed on wait list if you decide to return.

Yes. Choosing a pediatrician you trust is essential for your child's health and well-being. A single visit can help you determine if I'm the right fit for your family. There's no commitment to membership with the single visit option.
