What to expect

Your first visit, step by step

  1. Arrival and check-in

    Plan to arrive 10–15 minutes early. Our team will confirm your info and help you set up the patient portal on your phone if you haven’t already.

  2. Vitals and intake

    We measure height, weight, and vital signs, and go through any forms or concerns you’ve flagged on your intake.

  3. Time with your provider

    Your provider reviews history, examines your child head to toe, updates the growth chart, and works through every question on your list.

  4. Vaccines and screenings

    If any immunizations or age-appropriate screenings are due, we walk through what and why — and answer every question — before anything happens.

  5. Plan and wrap-up

    We summarize the visit in plain language, print any forms you need, and send a visit summary to your portal before you leave the parking lot.
