You will see us often in the first two years of your child’s life.
Our practice follows the guidelines from the American Academy of Pediatrics for well child visits. These are important opportunities to make sure your baby is growing and developing appropriately, discuss health, nutrition, and safety, and to go over any questions or concerns you may have. Many of these early visits also involve vaccinations. Because there is a specific time interval for the vaccination series, we encourage you to try to follow the recommended schedule for visits.

-Well child Visit schedule
-Utilize the portal! At every well child visit, your provider will have specific topics to cover to make sure your child is reaching milestones and staying healthy. But, well checks are also an opportunity to ask questions that concern you—so please bring in your list! To save time in the office, you can print out each well child questionnaire before your visit via the patient portal. Trust us, it is hard to juggle a baby and fill out paperwork!
