Pediatric Service
Our clinic utilizes cutting-edge medical techniques and our team focuses on meeting the needs of children and adolescents, insuring the highest quality of care needed to help your children grow into healthy, happy adults.
We invite you to take heed of any of the following warning signs or symptoms and to request the prompt action of medical professionals:
Warning Signs or Symptoms:
- Dehydration: Your child may have sunken eyes (or, if a baby, a sunken fontanel, or soft spot on his head) or seem extremely lethargic, or his mouth might be sticky or tacky to the touch. Also beware if urinating fewer than three or four times a day.
- High Fever: For newborns, any elevated temperature warrants a call. For infants 3 to 6 months old, phone if the fever hits 101°; for older babies and children, the threshold is 103°.
- Breathing Difficulty: Phone your doctor right away if your child is wheezing, his breathing is fast or labored, or you notice long pauses between each breath.
- Not Eating: It's normal for a sick child to have little interest in food. But if your child is eating or drinking less than half of what she normally would for two days or longer, check in with your doctor.
- Preexisting Conditions: If your child has been diagnosed with asthma, diabetes, a suppressed immune system, or another chronic medical condition, speak to your
pediatrician every time he or she comes down with a virus that could compromise his or her health.
