Preparing Your Child for a Physical
Do you find that your child (or even yourself) is anxious about heading to the doctor’s office for well-baby visits, annual physicals, or even routine check-ups? The medical environment can invoke all types of feelings and emotions from children and adults alike.
In order to prepare children for routine appointments, we worked with local pediatrician Dr. Neena Tripathy of Carle on what to expect when going to the doctor’s office for a routine visit. Our hope is that this video will help to reduce stress and anxiety in children and parents.
