It’s dinnertime and your child’s cough and fever has become worse over the course of the day. Your pediatrician isn’t available until tomorrow morning but you want them to get seen. Right. Now.

Fortunately, you can take comfort knowing you can get that diagnosis right away with a trained pediatric medical provider at Righttime Medical Care. And, you can either call ahead for an appointment or make one online, or simply walk in whenever it’s convenient.

Righttime was founded in 1989 in Annapolis, Maryland, originally as Nighttime Pediatrics. They have since changed their name to reflect caring for people of all ages and have expanded to 19 locations across the state. Righttime is now returning to its roots and launching Righttime Kids, a unique pediatrics urgent care program that is offered alongside its urgent care for adults.

Righttime Kids gives children something traditional urgent cares don’t: a warm, comforting environment where everything from coughs and sniffles to cuts and broken bones is treated with extra TLC and fun surprises along the way.

The original Righttime location in Annapolis, Md., is home to the first Righttime Kids program, where a patient is immediately greeted with an invitation to “Follow the Stars” along a pathway to a designated exam room for children. Once in the room, a television exclusively running the Disney channel entertains young patients while bright artwork informs parents about childhood medical matters. Other fun items give opportunities for parents and children to connect with one another while waiting, instead of interacting with their own mobile devices.




In preparation for the exam, the pediatric medical provider carries in the Righttime Kids Kit, chock full of treasures to help lift spirits and exceed even the fussiest children’s expectations, while the latest technology and compassionate care will ease parents’ minds. Additionally, parents will love the convenience of Righttime’s hours of 7am to 11pm every day of the year, as well as the choice to walk-in or make an appointment, and the ability to use all major insurance plans, with affordable options for self-pay patients.

At the end of the visit, parents are offered the latest resources containing helpful information for safe and healthy living at any age of childhood. And, since children are the stars at Righttime Kids, they’re offered an ice pop, a bright balloon and a special sticker for being a “star patient.”
