Well Visit – 4-5 years

Well Visit Preparation

Please take a few minutes to complete and consider the following, which will help you optimize your time in our office.

  • Developmental Screen – Pick the age that most appropriately fits your child’s age at the time of visit –

  • We will do a vision screen and hearing screen at either the 4 year or 5 year visit.

  • Your child may have a finger prick for hemoglobin. We generally do these every 2 years.

  • How is your child sleeping?

  • How is your child progressing socially with siblings and peers?
