Flower Pediatric Primary Care
The pediatric primary care department at the Martha Eliot Health Center provides services to children from birth to age 13.

Well Child Care
To help maintain your child's health, The American Academy of Pediatrics (AAP) recommends routine physical exams with a pediatrician at the following ages:

1 week 1 month 2 months
4 months 6 months 9 months
12 months 15 months 18 months
2 years once a year
from 3-18 years
 

These appointments help ensure that your child is growing well and developing normally. At each well child visit, appropriate immunizations are given and a full assessment of your child is done. We provide anticipatory guidance and ensure all your questions are answered. Please call at least two months in advance to schedule an appointment with your primary care physician.

Sick Visits
If you need medical advice or want to make an appointment for a sick child, please call the Patient Service Center. We have same day appointments available and our nurses are available to answer any questions. Please call for an appointment even if you need to be seen the same day. We also offer 24-hour phone coverage in case of an emergency.
