A well visit is a health checkup that focuses on the special needs of children and teens. Newton Pediatrics provides comprehensive care for your child’s health and well-being, encouraging them to take an active approach in their health care.
Preventive health screenings and routine physical exams help your child’s pediatrician diagnose medical conditions early when they’re the easiest to treat.
Newtonn Pediatrics also provides vaccinations to protect your child from serious illnesses and recommends healthy lifestyle changes to improve their general health.
Your child’s physical health is just as important as their mental and behavioral health. Newton Pediatrics has an independently licensed clinical social worker who can discuss your child’s concerns and help them overcome difficult emotions and situations.
Acne is a common skin condition in teens and young adults, but your child doesn’t have to struggle with acne on their own. Newton Pediatrics can help reduce their flare-ups and offer treatment recommendations to restore the health of their skin.
