Why Having a Pediatrician Is Important

Finding the right pediatrician is essential for your child’s health and wellbeing.

We know that every parent wants to give their children everything in life, and the start of a bright future begins with their health. That means finding the right pediatrician to fit your family. Our pediatricians at Phoenix Pediatrics provide unique, tailored and gentle care to children and teens throughout the Phoenix and Scottsdale, AZ, areas. Here’s why finding the right pediatrician is essential for your family,

Monitor Growth and Development

Making sure your child’s development is on track is one of the most important things you can do for their health. By turning to our Phoenix and Scottsdale, AZ, pediatricians, we can monitor and track these developmental milestones and healthy growth. This also means that we can detect developmental milestone delays early on.

Delays in growth, particularly in the first two years of life, can be a sign of nutritional deficiencies or problems, which can be corrected if caught by our team. This is why visiting us for regular well-child checkups is paramount.

Keep Kids Vaccinated

We know vaccines have been a big topic of discussion since Covid-19 has appeared; however, kids have been turning to our pediatric team long before this to get an array of vaccines necessary to protect them from potentially serious, debilitating or life-threatening diseases such as polio.

Many of these diseases have been eradicated only because children continue to turn to our team for these vaccines. When you have a pediatrician you trust to turn to, keeping your child up to date on vaccines is easy.

Catch Health Problems

Through all the monitoring and evaluating we do when you bring your newborn or child into the office, we can detect these problems early so we can decide the best way to treat or approach the issue. This includes everything from a heart murmur and vision disorders to asthma and learning disorders. By having a pediatrician that you turn to for regular checkups, we can catch these problems early on so that your child can get the treatment they need.
