Bayshore Happenings
If you have been to Bayshore Pediatrics in the past two days or are coming in soon, you may notice something different in the waiting room. You will now see holes and marks on the walls were the TVs from Accent Health used to be – the TVs have been removed. We initially installed the TVs as a way to provide health information while parents waited for their appointment. After receiving feedback from our feedback form on the website and survey results from parents, we decided it was best to remove the TVs. Through the feedback form and the surveys we hand out, parents let us know that we should act according to what we say – we guide parents to limit TV time so we should do the same. We listened and now the TVs are gone. Right now, it’s not a pretty sight with holes in the wall but we are working on ways to make the waiting room look great.
Thank you all for your feedback. It helps us to recognize how we can make your visit with us better.

In honor of today
In honor of today’s special day, Dr. Melbye’s birthday, a couple of the staff at Bayshore decided to have a little fun so…..
We frosted and decorated his desk. It smells like raspberry and is has fun, quirky decorations. We thought he would like something a bit out of the normal. He can’t eat it but it sure looks fun.
Take a look.

Trick or Treat – Safety’s Neat
Happy Halloween!
With witches, ghosts, and goblins, we look forward to Halloween. It’s a time of dressing up and playing pretend, whether is Superman, Hannah Montana, or Bob the Builder, it’s such fun. To make Halloween fun and safe, here are a few tips:
- Ensure each child has something reflective to carry. A flashlight or reflect tape adhered to a costume works well.
- Write the child’s emergency contact information (name, parent name, address and phone number) on a piece of paper and pin it to his or her clothing.
- Avoid costumes that drag on the ground. Unintentional falls are the most common Halloween related injury.
- Children should walk on sidewalks or designated pedestrian areas.
- Trick or treat in neighborhoods where children are familiar with their surroundings.
- Use battery operated jack-o-lanterns instead of live candles to reduce the likelihood of a fire.
- Secure your pets and pick up objects that may be a hazard for trick or treaters.
What are you dressing up as? What is your favorite costume? Your favorite treat (or trick)?
Have a Happy and Safe Halloween!

Standardized developmental screening
We are truly committed to providing the best possible medical care. With that being the basis of all our decisions, we began a journey to evaluate how we identify and provide resources for children with developmental delays (children that are not demonstrating the age appropriate milestones based upon national studies). Studies show that identification and early intervention in these instances are beneficial to both the child and the family. More »
