Bristol Health provides comprehensive care for infants, children and adolescents as well as education to pediatric patients and their parents. Our pediatric care helps set the foundation for a healthy life.
Pediatrics
Specialized Care for Newborns to Adolescents
Our goal is to partner with parents and their children to maximize child health through preventative care and education. We will provide up-to-date guidance on eating well, staying active, optimizing sleep and keeping kids mentally healthy. We strongly believe in the importance of routine vaccination (schedule recommended by the CDC and the American Academy of Pediatrics) as a tool to keep children healthy.
Our Specialized Care Includes:
- Routine well-child/adolescent visits & preventative care
- Immunizations
- Hearing & vision screenings
- Developmental screenings
- Pediatric mental health screenings
- Care of common childhood illnesses & minor injuries
- ADHD assessment & routine management
- Allergy & asthma care
- Referrals to pediatric specialists or pediatric ER/Urgent Care as needed
Caring for Children, Teaming With Parents
As children grow from babies to young adults, their parents are their most important role models. We hope to build strong partnerships with parents to enable them to be the best teachers and role models possible. We strive to have open lines of communication to create a true family partnership.
A Healthy Childhood Starts Here
Newborn & Infant Care
We are here to help you through the often challenging (but incredibly rewarding) early months of parenthood. We provide infant feeding guidance and support, guidance on common newborn issues, administer critically important vaccinations to protect against certain serious infections and make sure we track your baby’s growth and development. We are here to answer questions and point you towards trusted online parent education resources.
Toddler & School-Aged Child Care
We will help you navigate each new stage of growth and development as your child gets older, with continued regular well-child visits. Of course, each stage brings new challenges and delights. We are here to answer questions and offer advice and direction. We will help keep an eye out for any learning or emotional difficulties. We will continue to keep them up to date on vaccinations and care for them when they are sick.
Pre-Teen & Adolescent Care
Although pre-teens and teens can be busy, it’s important they continue with yearly well-visits and stay up to date on vaccines. We offer one-on-one time with the doctor to address any health concerns and screen for mental health issues. Parents should still encourage healthy habits, attend most visits and communicate any concerns. We aim to prepare teens to take responsibility for their health as they approach adulthood.
