I'd find it a bit off-putting, esp since my first reaction is that in the event my child suffers from a serious illness I'd rather my doctor offer treatment than prayer. That said, I didn't find it at all creepy when my own doctor said to me in the course of conversation (my mom was very ill at the time) that he prayed for her. But the context is a lot different--he wasn't offering me a service, he was offering sympathy.
