The Importance of Well-child Visits

How well-child visits from your pediatricians in Mission, and Edinburg, TX, can protect your child’s health

Your child’s health is important, and you want to protect it. So does your pediatrician, and it all begins with well-child visits. Dr. Syed Husain and Dr. Sumbul Naqvi at Valley Pediatric Clinic provide a wide range of medical services for children, including well-child visits. They have two convenient office locations in Mission, and Edinburg, TX.

Good health begins early, so your child should have the first well-child visit within 2 to 5 days after birth, according to the American Academy of Pediatrics. The first well-child visit should be followed by subsequent visits when your child is 2 weeks old, followed by visits at 1,2,4,6,9,15, and 18 months, and then again at 2 years of age.

Well-child visits are important for many reasons because regular well-child visits can:

  • Provide baseline information for your pediatrician to track your child’s growth and development
  • Provide an opportunity for your pediatrician to assess your child’s behavioral and developmental milestones
  • Help identify minor medical issues, so they can be treated and don’t turn into major medical problems
  • Provide an opportunity for you to ask questions about your child’s ongoing healthcare, eating, sleeping, developmental and behavioral concerns, and other issues
  • Help your child stay current on all necessary and recommended vaccinations to protect against serious and contagious illnesses and diseases
