Images of things like rashes and bug bites help you confirm what might have happened to your child.

Can't remember how much of that over-the-counter medication to give your child? Children's On Call has common medication dosage tables to take out the guesswork.
One of the first questions you'll be asked at the ER or urgent care is what medications your child takes or what kind of allergies he or she has. Track those in Children's On Call so you'll always have them with you.

Saved me a day off of work. Didn't have to wait until the MD office opened to know if it was ok to send my child to school. Must have app for parents. I'm spreading the word to my friends.

Very easy to use and has put my mind at ease while waiting to get into the doctor.
Excellent app to check your child based on symptoms. Very helpful to tell you when to call the Dr and what care to do at home.
