Well Child Visits

WAY MORE THAN JUST SHOTS.  We will see you and your child quite often to check in on his/her growth, development, nutrition, activities, sleep, and mental health.

We plan on seeing your child at the following ages:  Newborn, 2 weeks, 1 month, 2 months, 4 months, 6 months, 9 months, 12 months, 15 months, 18 months, 2 yrs, 2 1/2 yrs, then yearly starting at 3 yrs of age.

Here is how to get the most out of your visit:

  • ALWAYS CHECK YOUR EMAIL ON THE DAY OF YOUR CHILD’S WELL VISIT.You will receive messages with lots of age-appropriate information as well as handouts from the American Academy of Pediatrics.    
  • REVIEW YOUR VISIT SUMMARY FROM ATHENA.  I often add quick pointers according to your child’s age and also recap some of the things we talked about.
