Well-child checks are beneficial at every developmental phase
As your child navigates through various stages of growth and development, regular well-child checkups act as guiding milestones, enabling proactive health management and timely interventions.
The well-child visits are crucial at these particular age stages:
- Newborn check
- The first-week visit (1 to 2 weeks old)
- 1 months old
- 2 months old
- 4 months old
- 6 months old
- 9 months old
- 12 months old
- 15 months old
- 18 months old
- 2 years old (24 months)
- From 2 years old: yearly checks.
It’s highly recommended that kids above two years old regularly visit their pediatrician, even if they are healthy. These visits help ensure that they’re growing and developing well, catch any physical or mental health issues early on, give them the vaccines they need, and provide an opportunity for parents to discuss any possible concerns. So, it’s really a good idea for kids to have well-child visits every year until they turn 18.
What our patients say:
Keep your child healthy and happy by regular Well-Child Checks
As children grow, they go through different pivotal stages of development, each with its own challenges. Childhood check-ups help monitor this development, detect problems early, and treat them in time. A small investment in your child’s health and well-being will pay off for a lifetime.
