Frequently Asked Questions
What should I do if my child has a fever?
Fever in infants under three months should always be evaluated by a provider. For older children, fever alone is less concerning than accompanying symptoms. Contact the pediatric office if the child appears very ill, is inconsolably irritable, or if the fever is unusually high or prolonged.
How do I know if my child's development is on track?
Developmental milestones are reviewed at every well-child visit. Concerns about speech, motor skills, social interaction, or learning can be raised at any time, and the pediatrician can arrange developmental screening or specialist referral when indicated.
How often does my child need a well-child visit?
The American Academy of Pediatrics recommends visits at 1, 2, 4, 6, 9, 12, 15, 18, and 24 months, then annually from age 3 onward. These visits track growth, development, and immunizations.
