ANNUAL PHYSICAL EXAMS

In accordance with American Academy of Pediatrics guidelines, children over the age of 2 are required to have a physical exam on an annual basis in our office. If your child is due, or overdue, please call our office to schedule this important health supervision exam.

If your child is not current on their annual exam, we will not be able to complete forms or orders, refill medication prescriptions, or complete referrals to specialists.

Remember, you can also schedule this exam using the MyChart Portal and avoid any wait times on the phone.

·    Please keep in mind that these exams need to scheduled after the date of the previous year’s exam or they might not be covered by your insurance.

·    The 1-year and 4-year visits cannot be scheduled before your child has reached these ages due to vaccination requirements.
