ANNUALS & PHYSICALS

Vaccinations & Immunizations

We offer Annual Physicals, or Health Maintenance Visits for all ages, from newborns through young adults. These visits allow us to take regular updates on your child’s health and developmental progress. We will take basic measurements, conduct a head-to-toe examination, update charts and immunizations, and answer any medical questions you may have about your child.
These visits include immunizations, screening tests, and form completions for the following: 
  • Daycare,
  • Preschool,
  • School,
  • Camp,
  • Foreign Exchange Programs,
  • Preoperative Clearance,
  • and Sports.

ANNUALS

Our annual exams help detect early medical and behavioral health issues in children. During these annual exams, we will check immunization records. This is also a great opportunity to ask questions and address concerns that you and your child may have. These annual exams are customized and tailored to your child’s age and developmental stage.

During our annual exams we:

· Check height and weight measurements
· Compare growth charts and growth milestones
· Cross check developmental milestones
· Check vital signs, including blood pressure and heart rate
· Discuss eating habits
· Highlight exercise habits
· Talk about behavioral issues
· Review immunizations & vaccinations

IMMUNIZATIONS

Our suggested schedules for Well Child Visits and Immunizations are based on the recommendations of the American Academy of Pediatrics.

PHYSICALS FOR SPORTS

During this phase of your child’s life, their bodies are continuously changing and growing. In our sports physical, we will identify anything that might increase the risk of injury during physical activities.
 
We perform full annuals and physical exams which cover the sports physical requirements. These physicals will make sure that your child is ready to transition into an athlete by making sure they are healthy and physically ready for the impact of sports on their body. We will do a musculoskeletal exam to ensure that the ligaments, muscles, and joints are growing and developing properly.
 
A sports physical is required by schools for children wishing to participate in sports to increase safety and prevent injury.

VACCINES
