• Cough

• Flu
• Skin and scalp rashes

If you are expecting a new baby and would like Children’s Adamsville Pediatrics to serve as your pediatric primary care office, please contact us once your baby is born. We will schedule a newborn visit with one of our providers to examine your baby. We like to see newborns for their first visit within one to two days of birth.

Pre-participation evaluations and other school, camp and sports physical forms are completed by one of our providers at the time of your child’s appointment. Please allow enough time to schedule your child’s appointment before the forms are due.  

Our providers are affiliated with Children’s three pediatric hospitals and work closely with Children’s specialists, giving your child access to pediatric care experts in more than 60 different specialties, programs and clinics.

We offer hearing and vision screenings along with blood tests that can check your child’s iron and sugar levels, urine tests to check for bladder or kidney infections, as well as tests for common illnesses like strep throat and flu.
