- It’s easy to miss the ‘big picture’- An established relationship with a pediatrician can help see the ‘big picture’ of your child’s overall health to identify and treat potential issues early
- They’re a poor substitute for critical checkups- If you’re walking into a retail location for an immunization, that means you’ve missed your annual checkup
- Beware of communication breakdowns- Retail-based clinics communicate with your child’s established pediatrician about their visit, but many don’t, even if their paperwork says they will
- Healthcare systems offer convenience and quality, too- Many healthcare systems nationwide offer walk-in clinics that are just as convenient as retail-based clinics
- A pediatrician’s role- Pediatricians are focused on your child’s overall development, including preventing illness and injury
