New Pediatric Patients

We are excited that you have chosen Seashore Pediatrics for your child’s medical care. Your comfort and convenience are our priority, and we strive to make every visit to our office a positive experience. To help you get acquainted with our office and first visit procedures, we have included helpful information on this page. Please do not submit any patient forms online because we do not receive them.  We ask that you print and bring them to your child's appointment. 


What to Expect

A pleasant, comfortable first visit builds trust and helps put the child at ease during future visits. We want your child to enjoy getting to know our doctors and staff, so we work hard to establish this bond during every appointment to our office. During your initial appointment, we will explain everything in detail and answer any questions you may have.

We look forward to meeting you and your child and providing the quality, comprehensive medical care you expect and deserve.


Our Mission

Our practice is working together to build life-long relationships between our staff and our patients by consistently providing our patients with compassion, excellence and value. To fulfill this mission, we are committed to:

  • Improving the lives of the children we serve by providing quality care in a child-centered environment.
  • Listening to our young patients and their families who we are privileged to serve.
  • Guiding our patients along a path of optimal health and wellness.
  • Continually pursuing excellence at all levels through continuing education.


What to bring to your first visit?

We work hard to ensure that your child receives prompt medical care in a comfortable, child-friendly office setting. To help expedite the first appointment, we ask that you please arrive 10 minutes early and bring your child's immunization records and be prepared to complete paperwork regarding your family medical history, your child's medical history, and insurance information. You must bring your child's insurance card and your photo ID. The legal Parent or Guardian (with proper legal paperwork) must accompany the patient for the first appointment. Any other persons that may accompany your child to appointments must be first authorized in writing by the legal parent or guardian and must present an ID at check-in. 

We accept most major Private insurance carriers. 

Please have your card with you at the time of your visit. If you do not have a copy of your child's insurance card, we may consider you selfpay until this information is provided.  If we file your claim, you are responsible for the co-pay at the time of visit. If you have a high deductible plan and have not met your deductible, please be prepared to pay for the office visit at the time of service. Any overpayment will be refunded to you.  If we are not a provider for your insurance or if you are not insured you may be responsible for the entire charge at the time of service.  Please check with your insurance prior to your first appointment to ensure that our providers are in-network with your insurance plan. 

We do accept South Carolina and North Carolina Medicaid plans. If your child has insurance through Medicaid, we ask that you update your insurance to include our office or one of our providers as your child's primary care provider. You should receive a new card with the updated information. Please forward to us when received. If we are not the primary care provider on your child's card, we may not be able to complete referrals, etc. for your child's medical needs. 

Patient Forms

We are also happy to offer you the option to download, print and complete our office forms to reduce wait times during your first appointment. Please do not submit any patient forms online because we do not receive them.  We ask that you print and bring them to your child's appointment.
