Expecting Parents
Having a baby is one of the most rewarding experiences in your life. At APL, we share in your joy and are committed to keeping your baby healthy. We look forward to many years of providing care and support to you and your family.
The professional team at APL delivers the quality care your child needs and the counsel you want. All of our pediatricians are board-certified by the American Board of Pediatrics. Our experienced RNs (Registered Nurses) have special training in pediatric medicine and are a phone call away at (847) 398-0400 for prompt advice and to answer your questions.
The physicians at APL encourage all parents to give their child the Vitamin K injection after birth. Please read this CDC handout for more information on why it is so important.
