Well visits are important for your child's growth and development. Akron Children’s pediatrician Alex Miksit, MD shares why well visits are essential during baby’s first year. Kids should be seen for well visits at 12, 15, 18, 24 and 30 months - and then once a year from ages 3-21. Well visits include physical exams, any vaccines your child needs, age-related screenings, completion of sports/work/camp forms and much more.
