What’s Included in a Pediatric Physical
A Skylands Pediatrics physical is more than just a routine check-up. We measure your child's height and weight, vital signs, and perform a head-to-toe examination to monitor progress. We take the time to get to know you and discuss your child's background, address problems that concern you, and provide age-related counseling on diet, sleeping habits, behavior, school progress, and social progress.
We perform hearing and vision screening, current immunizations based on AAP and CDC guidelines, and, as needed, order laboratory testing. Where follow-up by skilled pediatric specialists is indicated, we refer.
Sports Physicals with Cardiac Assessment
If your child is participating in organized sports, a sports physical ensures they’re physically ready for activity. In addition to the standard physical exam, we perform a cardiac assessment and ask about any family history of heart conditions. This extra step helps protect young athletes and gives parents added peace of mind.
School and College Physicals
School and college physicals help fulfill enrollment requirements and support students as they transition to new academic environments. These visits cover physical and emotional readiness, vaccine updates, and preventive care. We also provide any required documentation for school, sports teams, or dormitory housing.
