The Valley Square and Northeast offices will be closed on Saturday 1/28/23. Walk-in hours are available in the following offices while this office is closed:
We anticipate re-opening both offices for regular hours on Monday 1/30. We appreciate your understanding.
Thank you,
Margiotti & Kroll Pediatrics
The Newtown Office is no longer closed.
Margiotti & Kroll Pediatrics prides itself in providing convenient and timely access to our patients when they need us. It is our hope that by offering this access, our patients will not be forced to seek fragmented care at an urgent care center or local emergency department for illnesses that should be treated within your child’s medical home.
As you know, we provide walk-in hours to treat patients with acute illnesses every day of the year and remain committed to offering this service.
In an effort to better serve our patients, effective Sunday, October 30th, 2022 we will be moving the location of our Sunday and Holiday walk-in hours from our Trevose Office to our Oxford Valley Office.
The Oxford Valley Office is better suited to handle the potential volume of our Sunday & Holiday walk-in hours due to the availability of more examination rooms, a larger waiting area, and ample patient parking.
Please note that we are still offering walk-in hours in the Trevose Office Monday – Saturday.
Please visit each location’s page to see their full hours:
The observed holidays in 2022/2023 where we utilize our Sunday walk-in schedule are:
Thursday, November 24th – Thanksgiving
Sunday, December 25th – Christmas Day
Sunday, January 1st – New Year’s Day
Monday, May 29th – Memorial Day
Tuesday, July 4th – Independence Day
Monday, September 4th – Labor Day
Thursday, November 23rd – Thanksgiving
Monday, December 25th – Christmas Day
The FDA is advising consumers not to use Similac, Alimentum or EleCare powdered infant formulas if:
the first two digits of the code are 22 through 37 and
the code on the container contains K8, SH, or Z2, and
the expiration date is 4-1-2022 (APR 2022) or later.
The code is printed on the product packaging near the expiration date.
Products that do not contain the information listed above are not impacted by this advisory. This advisory does not include liquid formula products or any metabolic deficiency nutrition formulas. Consumers should continue to use all product not covered by this advisory.
Products made at the Sturgis facility can be found across the United States and were likely exported to other countries as well.
These powdered infant formulas have the potential to be contaminated with Cronobacter, a bacterium that can cause severe foodborne illness primarily in infants. Cronobacter infections are rare but are especially high risk for newborn infants (see symptoms below).
Parents and caregivers should never dilute infant formula and should not make or feed homemade infant formula to infants.
If your regular formula is not available, contact your child’s healthcare provider for recommendations on changing feeding practices.
More information on Cronobacter and infant formula is available on CDC’s website.
Cronobacter bacteria can cause severe, life-threatening infections (sepsis) or meningitis (an inflammation of the membranes that protect the brain and spine). Symptoms of sepsis and meningitis may include poor feeding, irritability, temperature changes, jaundice (yellow skin and whites of the eyes), grunting breaths, and abnormal movements. Cronobacter infection may also cause bowel damage and may spread through the blood to other parts of the body.
If your child is experiencing any of these symptoms, you should notify your child’s healthcare provider and seek medical care for your child immediately. Healthcare providers and health departments are encouraged to report any confirmed cases of Cronobacter sakazakii to CDC.

Our office has been receiving many calls from patients and others in the community to obtain the COVID-19 vaccine. At this time our office does not have any COVID-19 vaccine in stock. We have registered our Practice as a COVID-19 Vaccine Provider with the PA Dept. of Health and received a small supply of vaccines for our staff and other healthcare workers in early January.
We have communicated with the Department of Health our willingness to act as a distribution point for the vaccine moving forward; however, it is unclear when or even if we will receive additional supply due to the overwhelming demand across the state. If you are interested in being added to our waiting list of those eligible to receive the vaccine, please click here and complete the wait list form. We will communicate any future availability to those on that waiting list.
