Services

Newborn Care

Newborn care starts immediately after your baby arrives, with their first checkup typically scheduled within a few days post-discharge from the hospital. During this visit, your pediatrician will conduct a comprehensive examination, including checking your baby's weight, length, and head circumference, as well as evaluating feeding, bowel, and sleeping habits. It’s essential to bring documentation from your delivery and a list of questions, as this appointment also allows parents to discuss concerns such as bathing, feeding challenges, or sleep issues with your doctor.

Immunizations

We firmly believe that vaccines are both safe and effective, making childhood immunization the most crucial intervention for promoting health and preventing disease in your child. Prioritizing the health of all our patients, we are dedicated to safeguarding every child within our practice by adhering to the vaccination schedule recommended by the American Academy of Pediatrics. We encourage you to explore reputable sources for more information on vaccines, and we are always available to address any questions or concerns you may have.

Lactation Support

Breastfeeding provides essential nutrition for infants in their first year, but mothers and babies may need guidance. We are committed to providing lactation support to help families achieve their feeding goals, as any amount of breast milk benefits your child's health. While we advocate for breastfeeding or pumping for the first four months and continuing until age one, we respect that infant formula is a safe alternative for those who choose it.
