Services
Annual Physicals
Our annual physicals ensure children's health through comprehensive evaluations of growth, vital signs, and developmental milestones. We assess vision, hearing, and motor skills while addressing parental concerns about nutrition and behavior. These exams are crucial for sports participation clearance and early detection of conditions like asthma or learning delays.
Immunizations
We provide all AAP-recommended vaccines including DTaP, MMRV, Hepatitis, and flu shots. Our staff reviews Vaccine Information Statements before administration and offers both live and inactivated flu vaccines. We maintain detailed immunization records in our electronic health system for easy access.
Developmental Screening
Our screenings identify developmental delays and behavioral issues through medical history reviews, physical exams, and parent interviews. We specialize in early detection of ADHD, autism spectrum disorders, and learning disabilities, providing referrals to specialists when needed while coordinating care with schools.
House Calls
We offer home visits for newborns and children with chronic conditions or mobility challenges. These visits provide personalized care in a comfortable environment, reducing infection risks while maintaining continuity with our office-based medical records and treatment plans.
Newborn Visits
Our newborn care includes post-discharge checkups, hearing and vision screenings, and developmental milestone tracking. We monitor growth metrics, administer initial vaccinations, and provide guidance on feeding and sleep patterns through both office visits and home consultations.
