We will scan your insurance card at the time of your visit and keep it on file. This is to ensure the most current information when submit a claim to your insurance company.

Please let us know of insurance changes. The most common reason for a claim being rejected is an ineligible policy or plan number. If you keep us updated you will avoid a $15.00 service charge for claims rejected due to an ineligible policy number or plan.

Welcome to Pediatrics at the Basin, a pediatric practice devoted to caring for babies, children and adolescents in the Rochester area.

Dr. Alice Loveys and Dr. Janet Cranshaw founded the practice in 2001. Dr Strang joined us in January of 2010. Read more about all of us! Our nurse practitioner, Paul Maxwell, has years of experience with patients of all ages.

Because we are a small practice, we pride ourselves on delivering highly personal, accommodating, family-centered care to your children. This dedication exists at all levels of encounters: from phone calls to checking in, from nursing assistance to physician time, we strive to provide service of the highest quality.

At well visits, you can read about age-appropriate nutritional and developmental guidelines; this same information is provided at your child's regular checkups. The education link will guide you to some recommended pediatric web sites.

We look forward to seeing you!
