I have an almost-one-year-old, which means that this season of life is an endless stream of chasing him around, belly laughs, big, toothy smiles—and a constant fear of him getting sick. As any parent knows, watching your baby fall ill—whether it’s the common cold or something more serious—can be heartbreaking. It goes without saying that having access to good healthcare has taken on an entirely new meaning since becoming a mother.
However, finding good healthcare is easier said than done. After waiting many hours (and sometimes even days) to get a call back from our pediatrician, I went looking for an alternative— a family practice, a highly recommended doctor, anything that could quell my new-mother nerves and provide some peace of mind the next time my baby had a high fever or rash.
Finally, I discovered Sollis Health. Sollis Health offers a first-of-its-kind medical membership that provides 24-hour care 7 days a week, 365 days a year. For both urgent and everyday medical issues, Sollis can handle up to 90% of what a traditional emergency room can. Even better, they now offer the Sollis Health Family Membership, which is perfect for young families that, like mine, are seeking a convenient and unlimited healthcare option.

Filling a Much-Needed Gap
I knew I wanted medical care that could account for the little and not-so-little issues that inevitably arise with a baby. I also knew that I wanted little-to-no wait time, easy access, and extremely qualified doctors that could answer my endless questions and provide compassionate care for my son.
What I didn’t know was that I wanted a healthcare option that could account for my whole family. After learning about the Sollis Family membership, taking advantage of their concierge services for me and my husband, as well as our baby, was a no-brainer. Unfortunately, we’ve had our fair share of ER visits over the years, and the idea of taking my precious newborn son to a hustling and bustling ER was the last thing that I wanted.
Sollis Health is actually the opposite of a stressful, crowded emergency room. Their offices offer state-of-the-art equipment in a comfortable (and comforting) environment. As a mother, I really appreciate this aspect of Sollis. It makes for a more family-friendly feel, which is perfect when bringing small children to the already-intimidating doctor office.
As a former New Yorker, I loved that they had multiple locations throughout the city (as well as in the Hamptons, San Francisco, Los Angeles, and South Florida). But what I love even more about Sollis is their virtual healthcare. Since moving out of the city, I can still access a doctor virtually any time of the day or night, which is a great comfort when you have small children.
The unlimited access is perfect for families, as well. Once you pay for your membership, you have access to unlimited virtual and in-person appointments, rapid and PCR tests, and off-site referrals, if needed. Often, I’ve found that I simply have a question for a doctor, without needing to make an in-person visit. It’s these moments that I’ve found the care at Sollis to really come in handy.
A Medical Membership for Everyone
When juggling the daily responsibilities of managing a household, convenience becomes key. Truthfully, I didn’t realize the importance of preparation before having a child, especially when it came to having healthcare lined up in the case of an emergency. The Sollis Family membership is an all-encompassing plan that offers unlimited appointments for the entire family, as well as one complimentary house call for anyone to use within the first year of membership, plus access to their vast network of specialists, like allergists, gynecologists, gastroenterologists, and more. The convenience of having a medical plan that works for the whole family is easily one of the best parts of choosing Sollis (and makes for one less thing to think about)!
On a personal note, my husband has quite a few food and seasonal allergies that have varying degrees of severity. One of my biggest concerns has been whether my son will experience these same health issues. Sollis offers a complimentary allergy panel test for food and seasonal allergies for every family member under 18, which was absolutely perfect for our needs. Again, the convenience of choosing a medical plan that understands the true needs of family healthcare has made my life easier in ways that I didn’t think was possible.
Your Healthcare Coverage, Answered
Unfortunately, those middle-of-the-night fevers or concerning coughs are hard to avoid (RSV season, anyone?), so the quick and easy access to Sollis Health’s pediatric urgent care has been a game-changer. What has impressed me the most is the fast response and quick wait-time for our appointments. Patience is already limited with children, and coupled with a medical concern, there’s nothing worse than having to wait to speak to your doctor. Sollis prides themselves on their fast service and little-to-no wait time, and I can certainly understand why.
In fact, Sollis was created as a way to break the traditional healthcare mold and offer concierge care that is accessible to the whole family 24/7. It is this mentality that makes it first and foremost a family-friendly option.
Day or night, big or small, urgent or not, Sollis offers the on-demand care that every family needs. I truly believe that it has been Sollis that has given me peace of mind during some of life’s most not-so-peaceful moments.
