Well Child Visits
These visits are at 30 - 45 minutes long and are meant to evaluate growth, development, behavior, nutrition, social and emotional health and to provide recommendations for safety and prevention of disease. Well child visits are meant to be a time to optimize your child’s health and well-being and address questions and concerns that you have about your child’s overall health as well as prepare you for anticipated changes. It is also an opportunity to administer vaccines, check hearing and vision and complete paperwork that may be needed for school such as sport physical forms and medication releases. Well child visits are recommended on the following schedule:
Newborn Care
I will be so happy to attend to your baby in the hospital after delivery! Please call the office to establish care BEFORE your baby is due. After you arrive to the hospital, please inform them that I will be the doctor and the nurses will call me after your precious little one is born. I can't wait to meet him or her! I will see your baby every day until discharge and answer all your questions before you go home with your bundle of joy. After you and your baby are discharged, it would be my pleasure to pay a home visit at 2-5 days and one month of age to check weight and help you with any questions and concerns that you may have about your new baby. You will then start care at the office at 2 months of age. The standard immunization schedule begins at 2 months of age. I am happy to work with families that choose alternative vaccination schedules.
Hospitalization
I recommend Yakima Valley Memorial Hospital for emergencies and hospitalizations if this becomes necessary for your child. Children that require hospitalization are cared for by the Pediatric Hospitalist Service. These fine pediatricians are specialists in hospital care and they do an excellent job. Having a child hospitalized can be a very scary and confusing time. If your child is hospitalized, please call me or have the hospitalist call me so that I may pay a courtesy visit to see your child and help answer any questions.
Sick Care
Treatment of minor urgent medical issues such as coughs, ear infections, vomiting and diarrhea, and minor injuries.
Chronic Care Management
Treatment of long-standing medical conditions such as ADHD, autism and asthma.
Care Coordination
I work with your child’s medical team in order to optimize their care and quality of life.

Labs and Imaging
If necessary, labs will be drawn and processed at a separate facility such PAML or Memorial Hospital. Imaging (x-rays, ultrasound, CT) can be obtained at Yakima Valley Memorial Hospital or Valley Imaging. The facility will bill you or your insurance company.

Office Fees and Insurance Claims
I am now in-network with First Choice Health Network, Premera, Health Alliance, Aetna, and Molina (limited patient panel). I will submit claims to these insurance companies on your behalf. It is YOUR responsibility to understand your insurance policy and benefits, but if you feel lost, we can figure it out together during your office visit. You will be responsible for all co-pays, co-insurance and deductibles at the time of visit. For all other patients, I will be considered an out-of-network provider and I will not send claims on your behalf. You are responsible for the full payment of each visit at the time of service. If you would like to bill your insurance for reimbursement or apply the visit to your deductible, I will be happy to provide you with a superbill. I accept cash, credit card and checks.
Office Policies
Scheduling Appointments
If your child will be a new patient and you wish to establish care with me, please call the office number at (509) 969-6214 or send an email to Alejandra@NourishYakima.com. Please remember that email is not a secure way to transmit sensitive personal information. Please also be aware that I check email during weekdays only and it may take 24 hours to reply.
Established patients may either call the above number, email or make appointments through the online system here. However, if the need is urgent, please call my cell phone number as that will be the quickest way to ensure that your child can be seen.
After-hours phone calls
Established patients with urgent medical needs should call my cell phone for assistance. Please reserve calls to my cell phone for urgent needs. If you are requesting a routine appointment (such as a yearly physical or non-urgent follow-up), forms to be filled out, or other non-urgent question, please call the office number or send me an email. If you are experiencing an emergency, please call 911.
Text Messaging
Although I welcome text messaging for non-urgent matters, please be aware that texting is not a secure way to transmit sensitive medical information. Please call my personal cell phone for urgent questions and needs. If I am unavailable, my voicemail recording will give you instructions. Established patients must use the OhMD app to text message with Dr. Yami.
Forms
There are multiple forms that may require a doctors signature. It is preferable that I complete forms during your child’s office appointment. However, I understand that forms may be required at other times when an appointment may not be needed. In order for me to accurately complete forms, I must have seen your child within the past 11 months. Please plan ahead and allow 1 week for forms to be completed as forms will only be completed during business hours.
Late or missed appointments and cancellations
One of the benefits to care at Nourish Wellness is that I will be on time and you will have appointments that are relaxed and long enough to ask questions and discuss a plan (a minimum of 30 minutes). My goal is to start each appointment right on time. I realize your time is also very valuable! If I run more than 10 minutes late for any reason, you may choose a gift from the goodie basket to compensate you for your time. I understand that life happens and you may be running late. Please call the office and let me know if you will be late and we can either reschedule your appointment or you can elect to have a shorter appointment time. Please also give me at least 24 hours notice for cancellations. Because missing an appointment or giving me short notice will prevent me from seeing another child in that time slot, you will be charged $50 for no shows and late cancellations. If I need to reschedule your child’s appointment for personal reasons, I will also give you a minimum of 24 hours notice. However, if I’m unable to do that for whatever reason, you will receive 15% off your rescheduled visit.

“My kids and I ABSOLUTELY love and adore Dr. Yamileth Cazorla-Lancaster!! She is genuine, informative, patient, loving and caring. Yami always managed to make me feel at ease by finding something positive or encouraging to say. In the six years of pediatric care, Yami became more than just my kid’s pediatrician, she is now a really good family friend. My 9 year old admires and is inspired by her many talents and in his little eyes she is famous, he is so proud to call Dr. Yami HIS pediatrician! We love and are so blessed to have her care of our children’s medical and health needs!” -Familia Amador, 2 sons
