Do Children Need Annual Physicals?

It is important for everyone in your family including children to have regularly routine physical exams scheduled. These exams may also be called a “well-child visit” or a “health checkup”. Children can start having these exams done as early as shortly after birth and lasting up through the teen years. These appointments allow your doctor to keep a close eye on your child’s general health and development throughout their childhood and teen years.
