Contact UsWhat Are Well-Child Exams?
To ensure your child is growing and developing at a normal rate it is important to get regular well-child exams. A well-child exam helps keep your child healthy by giving us the opportunity to identify hidden issues and prevent additional ones from occurring. We can also suggest ways to enhance your child's well-being by going over any concerns you might have. Please read our vaccine policy here as we ask our pediatric patients to follow the recommended vaccination schedule provided by the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC). If you would like to find more information about how you can stay proactive when it comes to your child's health or to schedule a well-child exam, call Immaculate Heart of Mary Family Health Center in Chandler, AZ.
What Can I Expect from a Well-Child Exam?
Well child checks are the foundation for preventive healthcare and health maintenance for your children.
Our well child checks monitor your children across 5 domains: growth, development, vaccinations, sensory screenings, and the medical physical exam.
Growth: Weight, height/length, head circumference
Development: we use the clinically-validated 'Ages and Stages' questioners that screen for delays in gross motor, fine motor, communication, problem solving, and personal-social.
Additionally, we employ additional screening tools at specific times to evaluate risk for lead toxicity, anemia, cholesterol and TB.
Vaccinations: we will compare your child's vaccination record to the AZ State vaccine registry to ensure your child is getting all of the appropriate vaccines at the right time. We also participate in the "VFC" vaccine for children program which allows us to provide free vaccinations to children who are uninsured, underinsured, or on AHCCCS.
Sensory Screenings: we will screen your children for hearing and vision problems as indicated, and if you ever have any concerns. We have otoacoustic emissions screening devices for infants and young children, and audiometry pure tone machine for older children. We also use digital photo screening for early detection of visual impairments starting at age 1.
Immaculate Heart of Mary Family Health Center Reviews
They're a great team. They treat you as a human being, not as a number, they do care about your life and that's why I'm giving 5 stars. I love all the staff ❤️ thank you!
Dr. Armstrong and Dr. Hart are very caring and knowledgeable. The staff they have are all amazing. The clinic is very clean and not much of a wait. V.Schitz
Dr Hart was experienced, knowledgeable and thorough. She has a plan with health checkups to monitor any changes in my health status. Easy to book. Easy to contact.
This place does ask for reviews which is why I am doing one, I wouldn’t be doing a review if the service I received was bad. This has been one of the best doctors I’ve visited in a long time. I don’t think they are a specialist by any means but the doctor did really try to help me and I really appreciate that. They did thorough labs and did their best to identify anything wrong with me. Their staff are all very calm and friendly. The practice is very religious forward but they are not a church and do not try to preach their values to you so please don’t let this discourage you. I will highly recommend Dr Armstrong to anyone I know as they are a very caring practice and truly listened to my problems. Not to mention their staff went over and above with referrals and helping me out. Thanks so much to the team at heart of Mary’s.
