Pediatric Care Specialist

What services does pediatric care include?

The team at Nevada Pediatric Specialists offers comprehensive pediatric care for children from infancy through adolescence. Some of the services include:

Physical exams

The team offers physical exams for annual wellness visits and sports physical requirements. They evaluate your child’s health and development, checking for signs of illness or developmental delay that could interfere with their well-being.

Immunizations

Nevada Pediatric Specialists follows the vaccination schedule recommended by the American Academy of Pediatrics and the Centers for Disease Control. They do not offer alternative vaccination schedules or accept patients who choose not to vaccinate their children. 

Sick visits

If your little one gets sick, the team at Nevada Pediatric Specialists offers same-day appointments as well as a walk-in clinic that is open on Saturdays and telemedicine appointments. They provide convenient care to help your child feel better quickly. 

Chronic disease management

If your child has a chronic health condition such as asthma, allergies, diabetes, or attention-deficit hyperactivity disorder, the team offers expert, personalized care to help your child stay healthy and reduce their symptoms so they can lead an active, fulfilling life. 

What should I do if my child gets sick?

Rashes, fevers, and injuries are common childhood health complaints that often benefit from rapid medical attention. Contact the team at Nevada Pediatric Specialists if your child gets sick or has an injury. You can explain your child’s symptoms and get personalized advice on the best next steps for your child. 

Nevada Pediatric Specialists offers same-day pediatric care appointments, a walk-in clinic, and telemedicine to ensure your child gets the medical attention they need. If necessary, they have an in-office lab for rapid testing for common illnesses like strep throat, as well as an in-office dispensary, so you do not have to waste time at a pharmacy waiting for your child’s prescription to be filled. 

Can a pediatrician help my child maintain a healthy weight? 

An increasing number of American children are becoming obese, which increases their risk of a wide range of health problems ranging from diabetes to early high blood pressure and cholesterol problems. The team at Nevada Pediatric Specialists offers a weight loss program for children, which helps them learn to make healthy choices and take care of their bodies.
