What Is a Wellness Visit?
Many people are in the bad habit of only contacting a doctor when they are already sick, and we pass this on to children by only taking them when they get a cold or infection. Preventive visits help your child avoid illness and make them comfortable with our office and providers. Wellness visits are preventive physicals that help children form good habits and stay healthy.
A wellness visit includes a comprehensive physical exam. We check vital signs, screen for disease, and make sure your child is up to date on all recommended vaccinations to prevent illness. At any wellness visit, we encourage you to use the time with a pediatrician for any questions about healthy habits or your child's behavior. Our pediatricians in Edison, South Plainfield, Perth Amboy, and Woodbridge, NJ, also perform school and sports physicals when your child is starting school. We can even provide vision and hearing screenings.
Why Are Regular Wellness Visits Important?
Keeping up with regular wellness visits for your children helps their pediatrician track their growth and development to ensure they are hitting developmental milestones and not struggling. We screen for disease so we can intervene early with treatment and help them avoid complications if they do get sick.
Making sure your children see their pediatrician regularly helps us identify developmental delays or behavioral issues. Another reason these visits are good for your children is they get in the habit of going to a doctor regularly, not only when they get sick. This forms healthy habits for the rest of their lives to help them avoid illness.
