Frequently Asked Questions
How often should my child see the pediatrician?
Infants need frequent visits (multiple in first year). After age 1, annual checkups are standard. Additional visits as needed for illness.
Are vaccines safe?
Yes. Vaccines are thoroughly tested and monitored. The benefits of disease prevention far outweigh the minimal risks. We're happy to discuss any concerns.
My child is a picky eater. Should I worry?
Picky eating is common in toddlers. We assess growth and nutrition and provide guidance. Most children get adequate nutrition despite preferences.
When should I worry about development?
If your child isn't meeting milestones or you have concerns, discuss with us. Early intervention makes a difference.
Can I call for advice before bringing my child in?
Yes. We can often provide guidance over the phone and help determine if a visit is needed.
Do you see teenagers?
Yes. Adolescent care is part of pediatrics. We provide confidential, age-appropriate care for teens.
