The Pediatrics Team at SouthCoast Health wants to ensure our patients stay on track for a bright and healthy future. We prioritize the health and development of your child. Our well-child visits are designed to monitor your child's growth, ensure they are meeting developmental milestones, and provide preventive care to keep them healthy and thriving.
What to Expect During a Well-Child Visit:
- Comprehensive Physical Exam: Our pediatricians will conduct a thorough physical examination to check your child’s overall health, growth, and development.
- Developmental Assessments: We will evaluate your child's cognitive, motor, language, social-emotional, and adaptive skills to ensure they are progressing appropriately for their age.
- Vaccinations: Keeping up with vaccinations is crucial for protecting your child from various preventable diseases. We will ensure your child is up-to-date with their immunizations.
- Health Education: Our team will provide valuable information on nutrition, exercise, sleep, and other aspects of a healthy lifestyle tailored to your child's age and needs.
- Addressing Concerns: Well-child visits are a great opportunity to discuss any concerns you may have about your child's health, behavior, or development with our experienced pediatricians.
Regular well-child visits are essential for keeping your child healthy and catching any potential issues early. Our Pediatrics Team is here to support your child's health journey every step of the way.
