During a pediatric visit, your pediatrician will perform a comprehensive physical examination and order any lab work or imaging studies necessary. Your pediatrician will also treat any illnesses or medical conditions at the visit. Another important part of your child’s pediatric visit is making sure your child is current on immunizations. Your pediatrician can administer any needed vaccines to protect your child’s health.
Your child’s pediatrician can diagnose and treat:
- Viruses, including a cold or flu
- Bacterial infections, including strep throat and ear infections
- Cuts, bruises, abrasions, and other skin injuries
Your pediatrician provides many important services, including
- Behavioral and developmental screenings for ADHD, learning disabilities, and other developmental issues
- Long-term treatment of chronic conditions including asthma and allergies
- Performing school and sports physicals, which are required for your child to attend school and play a sport
- Treatment for injuries and acute illnesses
