Services
Well-child visits
Well-child visits monitor growth, development, and health milestones from infancy through adolescence. Our pediatricians conduct physical exams, administer vaccinations, and address parental concerns about nutrition, behavior, and safety. These appointments ensure early detection of developmental delays or health issues while providing guidance for maintaining optimal wellness.
Immunizations
We follow CDC and AAP guidelines for childhood immunizations, protecting against preventable diseases like measles, polio, and influenza. Our practice educates families about vaccine safety while maintaining strict schedules for routine and catch-up vaccinations. We provide documentation required for school enrollment and travel.
School physicals
School physicals ensure children meet health requirements for academic enrollment. Our comprehensive evaluations include vision/hearing screenings, developmental assessments, and review of medical history. We complete necessary forms for public/private school registration while addressing any health concerns affecting learning readiness.
Newborn care
Our newborn services include in-hospital evaluations, post-discharge follow-ups, and lactation support. We monitor early development milestones, administer initial vaccinations, and provide parental guidance on feeding, sleep safety, and common infant health issues through the critical first year.
Telehealth visits
Telehealth consultations offer convenient access to pediatric care for non-urgent concerns like minor illnesses or medication refills. This service maintains continuity of care during the pandemic while reducing exposure risks, with secure video appointments available for established patients.
