School & Sports Physicals 

A thorough physical examination before heading back to school helps identify any underlying health concerns. Healthcare professionals assess your child’s growth, development, and general health. The ultimate goal is to ensure that your child is healthy and safe for the upcoming school year or activity and any underlying health issues are detected, diagnosed, and treated early.
