As a staff, we are interested in all aspects of health, growth, and development that affect a child's overall well-being. For that reason, we feel very strongly that it is important to see children on a regular basis for well-care visits. These times are set aside not only to get to know you and your child better, but also to address ongoing issues such as development, nutrition, behavior, discipline, and safety. During your well-care visit, attention is given to any chronic health problems such as asthma, poor growth, etc. We hope you will use these visits to discuss any ongoing concerns you may have as well. In this way, we hope to anticipate your child's health needs as he or she matures. Knowing your child in a "well" state helps us to deal effectively with illness when it occurs. As a practice, our providers strongly support and encourage immunizations at every visit. If you have any concerns regarding immunizations, please ask your provider.
