Services
Autism Screening
Our team conducts early autism screenings using validated tools at 18 and 24-month well visits. We provide comprehensive evaluations and personalized intervention plans, collaborating with families and educators to support children's growth through therapy, medication management, and individualized education programs.
Pediatric Pulmonology
Specialized treatment for respiratory conditions including asthma, chronic cough, and sleep apnea. Our pulmonologists use advanced diagnostics like flexible bronchoscopy and pulmonary function tests to create tailored treatment plans incorporating medication, inhalers, oxygen therapy, and pulmonary rehabilitation programs for children.
Concussion Testing
Comprehensive concussion evaluations using impact testing and neurological exams. We provide recovery plans with graduated return-to-activity protocols, symptom management, and follow-up care to ensure safe recovery for children with head injuries from sports or accidents.
Developmental Screening
Regular developmental assessments during well-child visits track cognitive, motor, and social-emotional milestones. We use standardized tools like the Denver Developmental Screening Test to identify delays early, offering referrals for specialized therapies and interventions to support optimal child development.
Flexible Bronchoscopy
Minimally invasive diagnostic procedure using flexible bronchoscopy to examine airways and address breathing problems. This technology enables precise diagnosis of chronic cough, airway obstructions, and lung disorders while allowing for therapeutic interventions like foreign body removal in pediatric patients.
