While same-day sick visits are sometimes a necessity, regular visits with Dr. Sarmiento can help to keep your child healthy. Well-child checkups are recommended for children of all ages. More frequent visits are required for children under the age of three. In addition, the American Academy of Pediatrics (AAP) recommends annual visits throughout adolescence and into adulthood.
Dr. Sarmiento sees children of all ages and stages, often into early adulthood. Kids love the fun and friendly environment in the office, while parents love that Dr. Sarmiento and the team take the time to get to know each child and their needs.
Your well-child checkup gives you the opportunity to discuss concerns and address your child’s needs. Not only are these visits strongly recommended by the American Academy of Pediatrics; they also provide you with much-needed peace of mind and more.
