Well Visit Exam & Vaccination Schedule

As part of good preventative health care, your child should be seen by one of our providers at the following ages.  A complete head to toe examination will be performed on your child at each scheduled well child visit. Weight, length and head circumference will be measured on all children 2.5 years and younger.  Weight, height and blood pressure will be measured on all children 3 years and older.  A urinalysis will be performed each year starting at 4 years of age.

If you have any questions about vaccines please visit www.vaccine.chop.edu. We do not recommend an alternative vaccination schedule. If you wish to pursue a different schedule than the one outlined below you will be asked to sign a waiver in our office or click here to view, print, and sign this form before your visit.
