Every child is special to us here at STIHC, and we want to know them well so that we can support you and them on their wellness journey.

Well Child visits are every Wednesday morning from 8 AM to 12PM.

During the Well Child Visit every child gets a book, a physical exam, and there is time for a conversation and to ask any questions or tell us about any observations you have of your child. If your child is due for vaccines then we can discuss what vaccines are recommended for your child - the decision to vaccinate is always up to the parent/guardian.
