Routine Physicals

About routine physicals

At Dr. Julie Douglass's pediatric practice, we believe in the importance of pediatric routine physicals as a cornerstone of preventive healthcare for children. These well-child visits are essential for monitoring your child's growth, development, and overall health. From infancy through adolescence, Dr. Douglass and her team are dedicated to providing comprehensive care tailored to each child's needs.

During a pediatric routine physical at our practice, Dr. Douglass will conduct a thorough examination, including measurements of your child's height, weight, and head circumference. Vital signs such as blood pressure, heart rate, and temperature will be checked to ensure they fall within healthy ranges. Dr. Douglass will also assess your child's motor skills, speech development, and cognitive abilities, adjusting evaluations based on your child's age and developmental stage. These appointments serve as an opportunity for parents to discuss any concerns they have about their child's health, development, behavior, or nutrition. Dr. Douglass and her team are committed to providing personalized guidance and support, offering advice on parenting strategies, safety measures, and preventive care, including vaccinations and screenings for common childhood conditions. Our goal is to partner with parents in promoting the optimal growth and well-being of their children, fostering a nurturing environment where every child can thrive.
