Pediatric Medicine & Well Baby Exams
Dr. Karen Parmar and Dr. Corrine Dawson have a special interest in pediatric medicine. Having young children themselves, they are very aware of the acute conditions and ailments that frequently arise during the childhood years. In addition to offering treatment for acute illnesses, Integrated Health ClinicTM offers a Well Baby Program for preventive pediatric health and wellness.
The Well Baby Program is designed to monitor growth patterns, assess developmental milestones and offer parents guidance and support in optimizing their child’s health. It is designed to educate parents about breast feeding techniques and concerns, vaccination guidelines, infant food introduction, and toddler nutrition. Issues such as colic, constipation, recurrent ear infections, eczema, congestion, irritability, and insomnia (to name a few), are often prevented or at least minimized when proactive measures are taken.
Well Baby Exams are recommended at the following ages:
- 2-3 months
- 4-6 months
- 7-9 months
- 10-12 months
- 18 months
- 2 years
- yearly afterwards
If your child is 2 weeks old, or already 2 years old, it is never too late to start. We look forward to working with you and your child in optimizing his/her nutrition and health.
We encourage you to visit Integrated Health ClinicTM to meet with our physicians and learn more about this program.
