Dr. Robert Golenbock
Robert Golenbock graduated from Albert Einstein College of Medicine in 1972. After graduation he provided pediatric care in New York City and -- starting in 1977 -- in the Danbury area. Pediatric care has changed a great deal in the past 50 years. In addition to office practice Dr. Golenbock participated in newborn care, admitted and attended inpatients, came to the hospital for routine and emergency caesarean sections, and saw patients in the emergency room after hours. He even did some house calls! Before the proliferation of specialists Dr. Golenbock did minor surgeries, and he consulted on dermatologic, orthopedic, and psychiatric cases until his retirement. While he misses the warm relationships he had with patients, colleagues, and CPM staff, he is delighted to have free time to sing more, ski more, and travel more.

After Hours

Center for Pediatric Medicine is here for your pediatric needs 24.7, 365 days a year! We understand that your child may get sick outside of CPM’s normal office hours.

How does after-hours work:

  • Monday – Thursday: our offices will close at 9:00 pm. We then re-open at 8:30 am Friday.
  • Friday- our offices will close at 6:00 pm. We then re-open at 8:30 am Saturday.
  • Saturday- our office will close at 2:00 pm. We then re-open at 8:30 am Sunday.
  • Sunday- our office will close at 1:00 pm. We then re-open at 8:30 am Monday.

During the hours we are closed we are readily available to assist you with any urgent clinical concerns you may have.

You can call any of our office locations or 203-790-0822. You will be promoted with an after-hours message. If you select option 1 you will be connected with CPM’S after-hours answering service team. The after-hours team will gather all of your child’s information (Patient's first and last name, best contact number, and health care concern). This message will be sent to “Rainbow Babies” an experienced triage service that CPM uses to assist us with clinical after-hours calls. A trained triage nurse will call the patient back and provide the recommended clinical advice. If the triage nurse needs more assistance they will reach out to one of CPM’s on-call providers for the night. CPM’s on-call provider will call the patient directly and continue to evaluate your child over the phone. All phone call encounters are followed up with a call the next day from CPM’s triage department.

If it is a life-threatening emergency please call 911.
