Pediatrics and Teen Health
Regular check-ups are important for the health and well being of children. Our Pediatrics Department treats illnesses common to children, provides Healthcheck screenings and all immunizations for children up to age 17, and offers sports physicals upon request. Referrals are made from this area to the dentist, optometrist, asthma department or other specialist as needed. Each year the Pediatrics Department sponsors an annual immunization drive in July where, for one day only, children may receive all of their shots and dental and hearing screenings free of charge. This festive occasion also features cartoon characters in costume, food, music, games and free school supplies to a limited number of attendees.
