What to Expect During Your Visit
We know that nothing is more exciting than welcoming a new baby into the family! However, we also know that this is a time of lots of questions and even concerns for parents. There are so many questions to ask and factors to consider, from bathing and feeding to child proofing and car seats, and our providers and care team are here to make sure that you and your newborn get the care everyone needs.
Your newborn’s first visit with one of our pediatrician will occur only days after leaving the hospital. Expect the first appointment to be a bit longer than other newborn care checkups, as this is the first time that we get to meet your new addition (so it’s an exciting time for us as well!).
Along with checking vital signs and vision and hearing, we will also perform a thorough physical examination and administer the appropriate immunizations. While we know that no parent wants to think about health problems, especially with a newborn, it does happen. This is another reason these regular newborn care checkups are so incredibly important, even if you think your newborn is fine. After all, we see a lot of cases of endocrine disorders, particularly type 1 and type 2 diabetes in children. We can diagnose and treat these conditions and provide our children and teen patients with the care they need.
