Prioritize Your Child’s Health
Your child’s health is your top priority. Regular well child exams are an important part of ensuring they grow up healthy and strong. These visits not only monitor physical development but allow you to discuss any concerns for their well-being.
If you’re not already familiar, a well child exam is a routine visit to the pediatrician that occurs at key ages – birth, 1 year, 2 years and then annually from ages 3-18. During these visits, healthcare providers evaluate your child’s growth and development, as well as administer essential vaccinations to help prevent illness.
Importance of Well Child Exams
There are numerous benefits to scheduling well child exams. Not only are they a means of preventive care, they also allow you to ask questions, receive guidance and build relationships with healthcare providers.
