If you have a baby, toddler, child, or adolescent, you know their medical needs are different than yours as an adult. They require more frequent immunizations, smaller size blood pressure cuffs, and friendly care that a kid's doctor provides.
 

At Pediatrics of Central Florida, with locations in Kissimmee, Orlando, and St. Cloud, FL, we understand your child's special medical needs and are here to oversee them every step, and year, of the way.
 

If your child needs to be caught up on vaccines, requires a physical for school sports, is feeling under the weather, or if you want to make sure they are meeting their milestones, it's a great idea to schedule an appointment with a kid's doctor.

Immunizations

From birth through age 18, your child will need a series of immunizations to protect them from diseases such as measles, rubella, and rotavirus, along with an annual flu shot. Vaccinations will be more frequent for babies and toddlers and become more spaced out as your child ages. Our kid's doctors will make sure your child stays on schedule with these important shots.

Physicals

If your child is enrolling in sports, their school or recreational group may require a physical. Some schools require a general physical prior to the start of each school year.

During a physical, your child's doctor will take basic measurements of height and weight and perform a general examination to ensure your child is in good health and progressing well. They will also go over your child's medical history and ask you if you have any concerns or if your child is displaying any adverse symptoms.

Illness

At our Kissimmee, Orlando, and St. Cloud offices, we are uniquely prepared to treat your child for any illness they may be experiencing, from colds to the flu, or provide treatment for chronic conditions like asthma. Be sure to reach out as soon as your child displays symptoms so we can provide treatment before their illness or condition progresses.

Meeting milestones

No two children are the same, but there are general guidelines for height, weight, motor skills, physical skills, and verbalization. Your kid's doctor can see if your child is properly tracking and provide care or recommendations if they seem to be behind schedule.
