What should I expect during pediatric care visits?

During pediatric care visits at Robertson Pediatrics, compassionate providers greet your child and offer the following:

Vital signs check

Your provider weighs your child, checks their height, and evaluates head circumference (in babies and young kids), body mass index (BMI), and growth patterns. They also assess blood pressure, temperature, pulse, and other vital signs.

Medical history review

During a medical history review, your provider asks about your child’s medication regimen, medical history, symptoms, and lifestyle habits.

Physical exam

They also complete a physical exam to evaluate your child’s overall health and wellness. They assess their eyes, ears, throat, abdomen, heartbeat, reflexes, breathing, and more. If your child needs a school or sports physicals, they can help your child with this as well. 

Laboratory testing

If your child requires lab testing, Robertson Pediatrics offers blood tests, urine tests, tissue swabs, biopsy procedures, and other diagnostic tests. These tests help detect or rule out possible medical problems. 

Treatment
