Preventive Care

The goal of preventive medicine is to prevent disease or injury at the earliest possible stage through screening, education, medications, and/or lifestyle changes.

• Ages 0-18 : We perform routine physical exams at 2 weeks, 1 month, 2 months, 4 months, 6 months, 9 months, 12 months, 18 months, and 2 years. Thereafter we perform annual physical exams until the age of 18. These are referred to as EPSDTs, for Early, Periodic Screening Diagnostic and Testing. With these annual evaluations we also perform Head Start physicals, kindergarten physicals, sports physicals, and camp physicals. At these evaluations we assess for and administer the appropriate immunizations for free to those eligible through the Vaccines for Children Program. We also provide long-term care and/or referral to specialists for chronic medical conditions.
