Child Wellness Checks
During a wellness check, our pediatricians assess height, weight, body mass index (BMI), vision and hearing screening, nutritional status, and more. We also review your child’s developmental milestones, behavior, sleep habits, and school performance. We’ll have a chance to discuss any concerns you or your child might have — from diet and exercise to emotional and social health.
Because children grow and change so rapidly, the wellness schedule is more frequent in infancy and early childhood. In Toledo and Oregon, Ohio, many parents appreciate having a familiar, local pediatric practice to guide them through these milestones. We follow American Academy of Pediatrics (AAP) guidelines while also tailoring recommendations to each child.
Wellness checks are not just about checking for problems — they’re an opportunity to give preventive guidance. We can advise on injury prevention, healthy eating, dental care, screen time, sleep hygiene, and immunization schedules. We also screen for risks such as obesity, vision problems, hearing loss, and mental health concerns.
If developmental or behavioral concerns arise, we can coordinate screenings or referrals, ensuring your child gets the support they need as early as possible. We’re committed to serving families in Oregon, Ohio and the greater Toledo area, so your child’s well-being remains anchored in our local community.
To schedule a wellness check for your child in Toledo or Oregon, Ohio, please call Maumee Bay Pediatrics or request an appointment online. These visits are a core part of our preventive care philosophy, aiming to help your child thrive physically, mentally, and emotionally.
