A well-child checkup consists of several recommended screenings your pediatrician conducts to ensure your child maintains good health. Wellness visits are necessary from infancy through adolescence to ensure your child is healthy and developing properly.

Your pediatrician partners with you to help prevent illnesses and injuries and track your child’s growth and development over time.

Well-child checkups also allow you to discuss any concerns you have about your child’s mental or physical health. With routine well-child visits, your pediatrician can detect early signs of a wide range of conditions, chronic illnesses, or developmental delays.

At Pediatric Associates, Inc., our team provides yearly check-ups, immunizations, sports physicals, and conducts the necessary screenings for your child’s school forms.

A sports physical is an important examination your pediatrician performs to ensure it’s safe for your child to participate in a particular sport. Schools often require sports physicals before your child can begin the new season.

If your child suffers from any underlying conditions like allergies or asthma, a sports physical can prevent them from experiencing health complications during sports activities. Your pediatrician can also instruct you and your child on ways they can avoid painful sports injuries.

The details of your child’s checkup can vary depending on their needs. During a yearly checkup, your pediatrician performs a thorough examination, assessing your child’s height, weight, and vitals.

Your doctor also screens your child for developmental delays. If your child needs immunizations, your pediatrician can provide them during their yearly visit. Your pediatrician also provides you and your child with age-specific tips for maintaining their health as they grow and develop.

If your doctor notices any abnormalities or changes to your child’s health, you can discuss safe and effective treatment options.

Well-child checkups are designed to help you maintain your child’s health and ensure they develop properly. To schedule an appointment for your child, call the office at (260) 436-3789 to speak with a team member, or use the online booking tool today.
