Services and Collaborations
Well Child Care
Our Well Child Care visits are designed to support your child’s healthy growth and development from infancy through adolescence. These routine checkups include physical exams, developmental screenings, vision and hearing evaluations, immunizations, and guidance on nutrition, sleep, behavior, and safety. We partner with parents every step of the way to ensure children meet important milestones and build a strong foundation for lifelong wellness.
Management of Acute and Chronic Pediatric Illness
We provide comprehensive care for both short-term illnesses and long-term pediatric health conditions. Whether your child is experiencing fever, ear infections, cough, sore throat, stomach issues, or seasonal allergies, our team offers prompt evaluation and treatment. For children with chronic conditions such as asthma, ADHD, eczema, obesity, or recurring infections, we create personalized care plans, monitor progress closely, and coordinate care with specialists when needed to ensure the best possible outcomes.
Extensive Laboratory / Testing Services (Including EKG)
To provide fast and accurate diagnoses, we offer a wide range of in-office laboratory and diagnostic testing services. Our comprehensive testing capabilities help reduce delays in treatment and minimize the need for outside lab visits. Services may include bloodwork, urinalysis, rapid testing, and other advanced screenings. We also provide EKG testing when appropriate to evaluate heart rhythm concerns and support overall pediatric cardiac health.
Impact (Concussion) Screening
Our Impact (concussion) screening services help evaluate children and teens after a head injury, sports-related impact, or suspected concussion. Using evidence-based tools and assessments, we monitor symptoms, cognitive performance, balance, and recovery progress. Our team provides clear guidance for return-to-school and return-to-play decisions, helping ensure your child recovers safely while minimizing the risk of long-term complications.
Molecular (PCR) Testing for Strep, COVID, RSV, Influenza, and STDs
We offer advanced molecular (PCR) testing for highly accurate detection of common infections, including strep throat, COVID-19, RSV, influenza, and select sexually transmitted diseases (STDs) when appropriate. PCR testing provides reliable results by detecting the genetic material of viruses and bacteria, often identifying illness earlier than traditional testing methods. With rapid turnaround times and precise results, we can recommend the right treatment plan quickly—helping your child feel better sooner and protecting your family’s health.
