Here are answers to some common questions about receiving Pediatric care with Dr. Janish:
- What is the difference between a Pediatrician and a Family Medicine doctor for my child?
- Pediatricians are specialists who focus exclusively on the health of children from birth through young adulthood, encompassing their physical, emotional, and social well-being. While family medicine doctors can treat children, pediatricians dedicate their entire training to this age group, leading to deep expertise in childhood illnesses and developmental stages.
- Why are well-child visits important even if my child isn't sick?
- Well-child visits are crucial for monitoring growth and development, ensuring vaccinations are up-to-date, and performing necessary screenings. They also provide a vital opportunity to discuss important topics like nutrition, sleep, safety, and behavior with Dr. Janish.
- How do you manage chronic conditions like asthma or food allergies?
- Dr. Janish manages chronic conditions like asthma and food allergies by creating a personalized action plan for each child. This includes managing daily medications, providing prescriptions for emergency medications, and educating the family on avoiding triggers. She also coordinates care with specialists, such as allergists or pulmonologists, as needed.
- Does my child need an antibiotic every time they have a cold or a cough?
- No, antibiotics are only effective against bacterial infections, not viral infections like colds or coughs. Overuse of antibiotics can be harmful. Dr. Janish will carefully evaluate your child's symptoms to determine if an antibiotic is needed and will not prescribe one unnecessarily.
- My baby seems to be crying all the time. Can you help with issues like colic or reflux?
- We understand how distressing constant crying can be for new parents. These are very common concerns, and Dr. Janish can examine your baby to rule out other medical issues. She can provide strategies to soothe your infant and discuss potential dietary changes or medications to help manage conditions like colic or reflux.
- Can a pediatrician help with behavioral issues like ADHD or tantrums?
- Yes, Dr. Janish can help. Pediatricians are trained to evaluate a child's behavioral and mental health, and can provide an initial assessment for conditions like ADHD. They can also offer parenting strategies and make referrals to specialists for further testing and support if needed.
- My child gets ear infections frequently. Is this something you handle?
- Yes, diagnosing and treating ear infections is one of the most common things we do. Dr. Janish can determine the cause, prescribe antibiotics if needed, and discuss strategies to reduce recurrence or if a referral to an ENT specialist is necessary.
- What is involved in a developmental screening?
- A developmental screening is a series of simple questions and checklists used during well-child visits to assess a child's progress in language, movement, thinking, and social skills. It's a routine way to celebrate milestones and identify any areas where additional support might be beneficial. These screenings help ensure children are on track for their age and development.
