Routine well-child visits can double as a sports physical
If you're the parent who is calling the doctor's office the day before practice starts, we have news for you — there's a better way!
Your routine well-child visit can be used to approve your child's participation in sports. As long as your visit is scheduled within six months prior to participation, your pediatrician can sign the needed paperwork without a second visit.
We recommend your child receive a yearly exam by your pediatrician to assess your child's growth and development, immunization schedule, nutrition, sexual activity and mental wellness.
Get back to better with school physicals
We provide safe, compassionate care, now and always. With advanced cleaning and touch-free protocols, we’re giving you more options to schedule your child’s school physical or well-child exam.
Schedule an appointment with a pediatrician
Your well-child check up can replace a sports physical as long as completed within the six months prior to sports participation. Beat the rush and schedule your exam early!
Please bring the required sports participation paperwork for your pediatrician to sign during your visit.
