I feel like a star struck teenager...last night, we had our first encounter with, wait for it...a pediatrician who makes house calls!!!!

For some reason, this is the winter that we seem to catch every fly, flu and cold that comes our way. This time I gave Dane my cold and we thought it was just that, a cold, until his fever spiked to 102.5 for 2 days.

Yesterday, sick myself, I was dreading the long trek across town in the freezing cold to take Dane to the pediatrician's office, when I remembered, "didn't I read about a pediatrician who makes house calls?". Yes! oh yes.

I called Dr. Kulich from Kidshousecalls.com and scheduled a 4pm appointment. We wouldn't have to go anywhere. He would be here in the afternoon.

His service is both forward thinking and old-fashioned at the same time. The philosophy is that no child should have to wait for medical care, and that care is best handled in the comfort of their own home - just like they did years ago. The typical doctor bag is a bit larger these days, however. He can do all sorts of services, like flu shots, H1N1 vaccinations, strep tests, urinalysis, and just about any office or urgent care center can do. Dr. Kulich's bedside manner is wonderful, and my son instantly felt comfortable with him. Dane watched videos while the examination went on and the doctor's attention was fully on my son and me - very rarely experienced in a physician's office environment.

It turns out that Dane had a double ear infection, that needed antibiotics - which the doctor mixed and gave to us right before he left! It was included in the service fee - and I didn't even need to go to the pharmacy! It was so wonderful!!!!

There is an upfront flat fee for his service, but if you have health insurance, he will mail you the proper forms so you can submit and get your corresponding refund. We found that with a co-payment, cost of medicine, and time/travel, his fees were very reasonable! There is a membership option which makes a lot of sense if you have more than one child (he'll treat all children in the household for the same price). They take appointments 24/7, which in NYC is a godsend (we have no urgent care centers), as our only alternative is the emergency room or wait until business hours.

Most important, is that Dr. Kulich is a caring, super-qualified, experienced pediatrician who is taking the health care debacle in his own hands. I love his entrepreneurial spirit and we will be calling him again very soon.

A PEDIATRICIAN THAT MAKES HOUSE CALLS!

Last night, my son woke up with a severe ear ache and knew he had an infection. Our ped is on the Upper East Side and I wasn't in the mood to make the schlepp from Brooklyn on New Year's weekend. I called Dr. Kulich at about 9am. He arrived at my house at 10am, bringing everything he could need for a full exam.

His bedside manner with both my son and I was great. Dr. Kulich made us both feel at ease immediately. He checked my son's temp, heart, lungs, ears and even had a scale to weigh him to prescribe the correct amount of antibiotic! As we suspected, my son had an ear infection and Dr. Kulich was ready to give us amoxicillin on the spot for him (included in the flat rate fee). We opted to use a different antibiotic, which the doctor wrote an Rx for us. The doctor spent time talking with us and explaining everything and then even made my son a balloon animal :)

A few hours later, I was still concerned and called the doctor. He was very kind and patient and did not hurry me off the phone. He calmed my nerves and assured me that I could call him back whenever I needed.

I must say that my husband and I were so impressed with Dr. Kulich and his house call service! We would absolutely use him again and enthusiastically refer him to other parents. (originally posted on insiderpages.com)

Thanks so much for seeing our daughter —— last night. As mentioned, it was easily the best medical experience I can ever recall, and we will certainly be calling again when the need arises. Many thanks again,

I have three children, one of which is special needs, and it is very difficult to take all three to the doctors office. Dr Kulich has provided me with my first ever stress free experience by taking care of my girls at home. I will most certainly be calling him again.

This was not just convenient, but it was truly high quality care. You saved us a trip to the ER. THANK YOU!

A HUGE thank you to Dr. Kulich who not only took the time to come and examine Emilio Friday night when we were unable to get ahold of our pediatrician, and really didn't want to spend hours at the emergency room; he also called again this morning to see how Emilio was doing. Emilio is doing much better today, and Richie and I are very appreciative for the time that was taken to see Emilio and answer all of our questions.

Hello Dr. Kulich
Im so sorry its taken me so long to contact you but I so wanted to thank you once again for the excellent care you took when coming to see our son Keaton who was sick while we were visiting New York in early April. Keaton had been very sick and we were on our way to Puerto Rico. You were so kind and thorough and put our minds at rest. Keaton did not eat at all the day we travelled to Puerto Rico but made up for it once we were there eating plenty of chocolate brownies which our kind host made for us while we were there. We ended up with an extra weeks holiday as the Ash Cloud prevented us from getting home but we did not mind too much. Keaton recovered fully but of course does not take long and he now has a very chesty cough and sore throat.

You mentioned to us that Keaton has a heart murmur and Im ashamed to say we still have not taken him to the doctors here to check that out, partly because he must have always had that and you say its quite common, saying that we will take him as every now and then I do take the kids to our private paediatrician for a check up. Im only sorry you are in New York because we would definitely come and see you.

Im not sure I can convince my husband that we should have a long weekend break to New York so the kids can have a check up when they need one!

Thank you so much again.

Deborah and Simon Harris
