Regular visits to a pediatrician are vital for the overall well-being and development of your child. And at the Community Health Center of the New River Valley, we offer a unique, integrated approach to healthcare. Your child can see a pediatrician, a behavioral health provider, and a dentist, all within the same building. Your child’s provider team will work together to provide holistic and patient-centered pediatric care to meet your child’s healthcare needs.
Pediatricians like Dr. Megan Thomas offer specialized knowledge and expertise in child health, enabling them to identify and address potential health issues early on. Regular check-ups us to monitor your child’s growth, track developmental milestones, keep up with vaccines, and detect underlying health conditions or concerns.
Your visit also presents an opportunity to talk about your child’s health, nutrition, safety, and behavior. By establishing a consistent relationship with a pediatrician, parents can foster open communication, receive personalized advice, and stay informed about their child’s health, empowering them to make informed decisions for their child’s well-being.
