Basic medical care for children is available from Family Practice Providers at the Needville and Rosenberg Clinics. |
A pediatrician is concerned with the physical, emotional, and social health of children from birth to young adulthood. Pediatric care encompasses a broad range of health services from preventive care to the diagnosis and treatment of acute and chronic diseases. A pediatrician deals with biological, social, and environmental influences on the developing child and with the impact of disease and dysfunction on development. Pediatricians provide regular health examinations as well as promoting preventive medicine and health practices. They also immunize children against common childhood infectious diseases such as influenza, meningitis, measles, mumps, and chicken pox. |
