Kids between the ages of 1 and 12 need regular checkups in order to monitor their growth and development, and to catch potential issues as soon as possible. Regular checkups also give us an opportunity to talk through any questions you or your child have. Kids experience rapid development between the ages of 1 and 3, so we like to see them a little more frequently. For kids between the ages of 4 and 12, we recommend a yearly physical.
We believe in taking care of the whole child, and their physical will often include an age-appropriate mental and social health screening. We always make time to discuss any concerns you have since you’re the one who spends the most time with your child! Acorn Pediatrics offers well-child checkups, sports physicals, illness and medication management, and much more to keep your child healthy.
