Don’t forget your well-child yearly exam!

A yearly visit is an important element of your child’s health care, as recommended by the American Academy of Pediatrics and your provider at Partners in Pediatrics. Well-child visits (or check-ups) are important, even when children are doing well. Well-child check-ups will help to keep your child healthy.

Schedule your check-ups now before the Spring rush!
