| If you are interested in receiving treatment at Thoughtful House, please call us (512-732-8400) or e-mail us (info@thoughtfulhouse.org) to request a patient packet. Our physicians will meet weekly to determine whether the completed packets indicate that a child would be best served by starting treatment with Dr. Arthur Krigsman, a gastroenterologist, or Dr. Bryan Jepson or Lucas Ramirez, NP. Parents will then be notified of the physicians' opinion. Patients who are referred to Dr. Krigsman will have to complete blood and stool testing and an abdominal X-ray. Once the results are received at Thoughtful House, if warranted, an appointment for a phone consultation and an endoscopy will be made. Patients who do not have symptoms of gastrointestinal disease will be referred to either Dr. Bryan Jepson or Lucas Ramirez, NP, as per the parents' request. While we prefer to see patients in our offices, we understand that this is sometimes not financially or logistically possible and appointments can be made for phone consultations. (A minimum of one visit per year is required.) |
