Examination Schedules

Examination Schedules
We follow the schedule recommended by the American Academy of Pediatrics. Infants are examined about six times in the first year, and two or three times in the second year. We recommend yearly physical exams to the age of five or six. After this age, complete physical exams can be given less frequently if there are no ongoing health problems. Physical exams are generally required at 2 or 3-year intervals for purposes of camp or sports. A good way to remember complete physical examinations is to schedule them at about the time of your child’s birthday. Please bring your child’s immunization record during all visits.
