Pediatric medicine focuses on the health and medical care of infants and children from birth up to the age of 18 years.  Children’s bodies are different from adults’ and they are more likely to get sick or injured because they normally spend more time outside, share toys with others, and put their hands in their mouths. Coughs, fevers, minor cuts and injuries, breathing problems, stomach aches and ear aches can happen in children, as well as sudden or urgent illnesses.

We can diagnose and treat several non-emergency conditions in children, including:

  • Sudden or urgent illnesses

  • Ear, eye or other infections

  • Cough and fevers

  • Minor fractures or sprains

  • Minor cuts or injuries

  • Minor breathing problems

  • Rashes

  • Stomach aches

  • Sports injuries

We can also treat emergency conditions such as:

  • Severe vomiting or diarrhea

  • Dehydration

  • Broken bones

  • Head injuries

  • Major bleeding

If your child’s condition is life-threatening, call 911 or visit the nearest emergency department.
