Preventive Pediatric Care at Flourish Family Medicine
At Flourish Family Medicine, we provide primary care for children from newborns through adolescence, with an emphasis on preventive wellness, healthy development, and addressing concerns as they arise.
Our providers partner with families to support physical growth, emotional well-being, and long-term health through regular well-child visits, acute care when needed, and individualized guidance along the way.
At Flourish Family Medicine, we believe well-child visits are the foundation of pediatric healthcare. These routine visits allow us to monitor growth and development, support healthy habits, and identify concerns early — often before they become more significant issues.
Our pediatric care supports children from newborns through childhood, with an emphasis on prevention, relationship-based care, and partnering with families as children grow and change.
Well-child visits are regularly scheduled preventive appointments designed to assess your child’s physical, emotional, and developmental health. These visits provide an opportunity to track growth, review milestones, and address questions or concerns in a proactive, supportive setting.
Regular well-child care allows providers to recognize subtle changes over time and support healthy development at every stage.
Well-child visits play a key role in:
Monitoring growth and development
What Are Well- Child Visits?
We track height, weight, and (when appropriate) head circumference, and review developmental milestones to ensure your child is progressing as expected.
Preventive screening and early detection
Visits may include age-appropriate vision screening, laboratory evaluations when indicated, and discussion of preventive health strategies.
Education and guidance
Providers offer guidance on nutrition, sleep, behavior, safety, and age-appropriate expectations to support families between visits.
Vaccine counseling and administration
We provide education and administration of recommended immunizations in a supportive, non-pressured environment, allowing families to make informed decisions.
What to Expect During a Well-Child Visit
Each visit is tailored to your child’s age and needs, but commonly includes:
- A physical exam to assess overall health
- Review of growth patterns and developmental milestones
- Discussion of learning, behavior, emotional health, and social development
- Vaccine counseling and administration when appropriate
- Time for parent questions and anticipatory guidance
- Planning ahead for upcoming developmental stages
Recommended Schedule for Well-Child Visits
The American Academy of Pediatrics recommends more frequent visits during the first years of life, followed by annual visits throughout childhood.
Typical visit schedule includes:
- Newborn visit (3–5 days old), 7-14 days
- 1 month
- 2, 4, 6, and 9 months
- 12, 15, and 18 months
- 24 and 30 months
- Annually from age 3 through childhood
Regular visits help ensure continuity of care and allow us to support your child as their needs evolve.
Care for Acute Concerns
In addition to preventive care, we provide evaluation and treatment for acute illnesses and concerns as they arise. This may include common childhood infections, rashes, digestive concerns, injuries, or other new symptoms.
Whenever possible, acute care is provided by a clinician who knows your child and their health history.
