Pediatric care for Timnath families, from a family medicine practice

Parents in Timnath searching for a pediatric clinic usually find two options: a large hospital system with a long wait for new patients, or a pediatric practice that only sees kids and sends the rest of the family elsewhere. NOCO Healthcare is a third option. We are a family medicine practice in Greeley, about 25 minutes east of Timnath, founded and run by a family nurse practitioner who cares for newborns, kids, teens, and their parents under one roof.

Same-day sick visits, well-child checks, immunizations on the CDC schedule, and sports physicals, all with a provider who will know your whole family.

Pediatric care at a family medicine practice

NOCO Healthcare is not a pediatric specialty practice, and we say so up front. We are a family medicine practice, and our founder, Sheree Montoya, is a board-certified family nurse practitioner. Family medicine providers are trained to care for every age, and for many Timnath families that is exactly what they want: one clinic, one provider, one chart for the toddler, the teenager, and the parents. Our guide to pediatricians and family practice explains the differences plainly if you are deciding.

Newborns are welcome. A first visit covers weight and measurements, a full physical exam, feeding and sleep questions, and as much time as you need to ask about the things nobody warned you about. From there, well-child visits follow the standard schedule, immunizations follow the CDC schedule, and sick visits happen when they are needed, usually the same day you call.

As kids grow, so does the list: school and sports physicals, acne, asthma and allergy management, growth questions, injuries, and the conversations teenagers would rather have with a provider they have known for years. If a child needs a pediatric specialist, we refer and coordinate, and we stay the home base.

Same-day sick visits for Timnath kids

Children get sick at inconvenient times, and the answer should not be a three-hour wait at a walk-in clinic. We keep appointments open every day for patients who call that morning. Call (970) 888-0399 when you notice the fever, the rash, or the ear pulling, and we will find a time. For some things, a video visit is enough and saves you the drive; for others, we want to see the child in person, and we will tell you which.

Common reasons Timnath parents bring kids in: fevers, ear infections, sore throats and strep, coughs and croup, pink eye, rashes, vomiting and diarrhea, urinary symptoms, minor injuries, and asthma flare-ups. If a child is struggling to breathe, unusually lethargic, or you are frightened, go to the nearest emergency department first and call us after.

Well-child visits, immunizations, and physicals

Well visits are where we catch things early and where parents get to ask the questions that pile up between appointments. We follow the standard well-child schedule from newborn through adolescence and the CDC immunization schedule for vaccines. Records are kept in your child’s chart and can be printed for school or daycare whenever you need them.

School and sports physicals are quick to schedule. If your child plays for a Timnath school or club team, call before the season starts and we will get the form done. Our sports physical page has details.

Cost and coverage for Timnath families

Most major plans, Medicare, and Medicaid are accepted. Well-child visits and vaccines are typically covered in full as preventive care. If you are paying out of pocket, we will quote a self-pay rate on the phone. Nobody at NOCO has ever been surprised by a bill they were not warned about, and we intend to keep it that way.

Why Timnath parents drive to Greeley for a family practice

It is not the drive; it is the access. A practice that answers the phone, sees a sick kid today, and knows the whole family is worth about 25 minutes on US-34. Our Timnath primary care and family medicine pages cover the adult side of the practice, and our urgent care page for Timnath explains how same-day visits work for the whole family.
