Recommended Checkup & Immunization Schedule
The schedule below is based on recommendations by the American
Academy of Pediatrics. Children's Wellness Center is committed to delivering
high quality medical care. We believe that periodic well check-ups
are an integral part of that commitment. We recommend frequent
check-ups during infancy and yearly beginning at age two years. We
feel these visits are important to assess growth and development,
and to offer advice regarding safety and emotional issues that are
an important part of a healthy childhood. Please note that after age
2 years, insurance carriers will only pay for one well visit every
365 days, so please check eligibility with your carrier if there are
any questions.
