The MAPA triage nurses are working hard to get to your call. We are currently scheduling same day sick appointments.
Over the past several weeks we have experienced unusually high call volume. This is leading to longer than normal hold times, which we understand is challenging for you as a parent/caregiver. We block more than 60% of our daily allotment of appointment slots for same day sick visits and have been filling these much earlier in the day than we have ever done in the past. Therefore, sometimes we are out of appointments as early as 10:00 in the morning.
Once our schedule is completely full, we are still able to provide guidance and advice to best help you manage your child’s illness. We appreciate your understanding that if there are lengthy hold times or we are out of appointments, the nurses are doing the best they can to address all concerns as quickly as possible
In an effort to be as transparent as possible and keep you up to date with our availability of same day sick appointments, we will be updating this banner daily. By communicating this information, our goal is to be respectful of your time while still providing the support, recommendations, and clinical advice that you have come to rely on.

Let us introduce ourselves
Our Pediatric-specific medical staff at Mountain Area Pediatrics consists of six Board Certified Pediatricians. Additionally, our ancillary clinical staff of Registered Nurses, Licensed Practical Nurses, Certified Medical Assistants, and Phlebotomists, offer top-notch care with countless years of experience.
Our Pediatricians are on the admitting medical staff at Mission Hospital for newborns, and have close working relationships with the “big kid” inpatient pediatric hospitalists/intensivists. Whatever your pediatric needs may be, the staff at Mountain Area Pediatrics will assist you with compassion, professionalism, and expertise!
From a Dream to a Reality
Mountain Area Pediatrics (MAPA) transitioned from being a dream to a reality when Dr. J. Bennett Bailey started the practice in 1980. Dr. Bailey (Dr. Ben as he is known by his patients and countless others who adore him) strived to provide personalized, thoughtful, compassionate care to his patients.
He always took time to listen. Many have said that “Dr. Ben is worth the wait because I know that when he is with my child, my child is the only thing in this world during the very special visit.” Since 1980, more than 60,000 children have passed through the doors of MAPA.
OUR SERVICES
Appointment times are available daily for a variety of needs including Newborn Visits, Well Child Visits, Hospital Follow-ups, Behavior Consultations (including diagnosing and management of ADD/ADHD), Nutrition and Exercise Counseling, Asthma and Same Day Sick Visits.
We have a co-management agreement with a behavioral health facility and we can refer to outside behavior health professional if needed. Dental varnish is available at well child visits for our younger patients. MAPA is equipped with an onsite lab offering multiple diagnostic tests. As part of our advanced care team we have a group of telephone triage nurses, including RN’s and LPN’s, who are available to speak to you about the health of your child.
