Scheduling
At Mt. Tahoma Pediatrics, we understand the importance of making appointments at a time that works for you. At this time, we are no longer offering self-scheduling.
Please reach out to us using the contact form and allow 5 to 7 business days for a response. ​
​
We are currently piloting a waitlist to ensure that we can spend adequate time with all of our patients. Please email us to get on the waitlist. You will receive a phone call and/or email when we have an appointment block available for your child in 60 to 90 days.

How many appointments will my child need?
Autism Evaluation
Expect 4-5, 60 minute appointments, with most being conveniently scheduled via telehealth.
ADHD and Developmental Evaluations
Expect 2-3, 60 minute appointments, with most being conveniently scheduled over telehealth.
Care, follow ups and curriculums
All developmental care, follow ups and curriculums are booked as individual appointments. If you are completing a curriculum, we will find you a weekly scheduled time to meet for the entirety of the program.
Commitment to Patient Access
At Mt. Tahoma Developmental Pediatrics, we are committed to ensuring that all children can obtain timely access to critical developmental services. As such, we block 30% of patient appointments specifically for Medicaid patients. The blocked appointment rate is the reported Medicaid enrollment for Pierce County, and thus can fluctuate year to year. If these appointments do not fill by the first of the month, they will be released for general booking. This allows us to have more appointments open at any given time and results in easier access for all patients.
