Did you know regular well child visits are one of the most important things you can do to keep your child healthy? Well child visits also provide you with the opportunity to discuss any questions or concerns you may have about your child’s health.

Your child should have a well child visit at the intervals listed below. We recommend that you call our office three months in advance to schedule an appointment with your child’s primary care provider on the date that best fits your needs.

Doctors we refer to

At Great Destinations Pediatrics, we partner with trusted specialists to ensure your child receives the highest quality care when additional expertise is needed. We’ve built strong relationships with a select group of doctors in the Valley who share our commitment to compassionate, evidence-based care.

Over the counter medication dosing

For your child’s safety, it’s important to follow the correct dosing when giving over-the-counter medicines like acetaminophen (Tylenol®) or ibuprofen (Motrin®, Advil®). Doses are based on your child’s weight, not just age. Please use the chart provided below as a guide and always measure with the dosing device that comes with the medication.

If you have any questions about which medication to use or the correct amount, please call our office before giving your child a dose. (623) 878-2800
