The American Academy of Pediatrics recommends a preventive exam for children at ages 3 days, 2 weeks, 2, 4, 6, 9, 12, 15, 24, 30, and 36 months and annually thereafter. In addition, it is recommended that each child receive 40 immunizations between birth and age 10. In 2012 we will provide nearly 6,000 patients access to quality pediatric healthcare and provide 21,000 office visits. PediPlace is providing families with a medical home that allows them to bring their children to a friendly, familiar place for routine preventative care, immunizations, and a comforting helpful facility when they are sick. |
