Well-child checkups
Well-child checkups are recommended for all children. During a regular health check, your child will receive a physical exam, as well as any needed immunizations. Your child’s pediatrician will ask questions about issues that might affect your child’s health or performance in school. You will also have a chance to discuss your child’s development, behavior concerns, nutrition, parenting and safety with your child’s provider.
We recommend scheduling your child’s health checks according to the schedule below:
- Within the first seven days of being born
- 1 month old
- 2 months old
- 4 months old
- 6 months old
- 9 months old
- 12 months old
- 15 months old
- 18 months old
- 2 years old
- 2.5 years old
- Annually from 3 to 20 years old
Sick visits for common illnesses or minor injuries
We try our best to accommodate same-day sick visits. Call our office as soon as you have concerns about your child’s health, so we can offer you more options and appointment times. It is best to call early in the morning for a same-day sick visit. Walk-ins are not allowed.
Common conditions we treat in our pediatrician office include:

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