Pediatric Care
Learn more about our core message, our passion for pediatric care, and how our goals are aligned with the health and wellness of your family.
Primary Care
In addition, a Primary Care Selection Form is provided for your convenience and may be downloaded from our web site, completed, and sent in to your insurance carrier to provide written notification of your intention to select and receive medical care with one of our doctors as your child(ren)’s pediatrician/primary care provider.
Ear Infections
Symptoms of the flu generally start with a sudden onset of fever with chills, headache, muscle pain, and non productive cough. As the flu progresses, we also see sore throat, congestion, runny nose, and cough. Eye redness, abdominal pain, nausea, vomiting, and diarrhea are not generally seen, although they are often referred to as “stomach flu.” In young children, the flu virus can cause ear infections and in infants, can look like a severe blood infection, which can lead to wheezing and viral pneumonia in the very young and the elderly, or those with compromised immune systems. The flu can cause severe illness and lead to severe complications, even in healthy children. It can cause febrile seizures to encephalopathy or encephalitis, which is where it affects the lining of the brain and spinal cord, which can be serious and lead to long-term problems. More rarely, the flu can cause an infection in the lining around the heart, leading to death. Another major problem related to the flu is getting exposed to another illness at the same time and having a secondary infection from bacteria or another virus.
Family Practice
Overall family health starts with regular visits, not just when your kids have the sniffles. Well visits prevent sick visits.

Lesions
Chicken pox, also known as Varicella-Zoster Virus and human herpesvirus 3, used to be a very common childhood disease. Humans are the only source of this disease. It is spread by airborne route, from a person who has the disease. This means that it can be spread from the actual lesions or from the respiratory secretions of a sick person; like a cough or a sneeze. It was most commonly seen in school-aged children, but with current vaccine requirements and recommendations, it is increasingly rare. Between 1995 and 2005, in the first 10 years of vaccinating, the incidence of chicken pox decreased by 90% and has decreased further since adding a booster dose. Most people who have the vaccine or the disease have lifelong immunity to the disease. The decrease of incidence after vaccinating is an example of herd immunity (see below).
