Here are answers to some common questions about receiving Pediatric care with Dr. Adesina:
- What is the difference between a Pediatrician and a Family Medicine doctor for my child?
- Pediatricians are specialists trained exclusively in the care of children from birth through young adulthood, focusing on their physical, emotional, and social health. While family medicine doctors can treat children, a pediatrician's practice is entirely dedicated to kids, providing in-depth 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 scheduled immunizations, and performing necessary screenings. They also provide a valuable opportunity to discuss nutrition, sleep, safety, and behavior with Dr. Adesina.
- What is involved in a developmental screening?
- A developmental screening is a routine part of well-child visits. It involves simple questions and checklists to assess a child's progress in language, movement, thinking, and social skills. This helps us celebrate milestones and identify any areas needing extra support.
- My child gets ear infections frequently. Is this something you handle?

- Can a pediatrician help with behavioral issues like ADHD or tantrums?
- Yes, Dr. Adesina can help with behavioral issues like ADHD or tantrums. Pediatricians are trained to evaluate a child's behavioral and mental health, and can provide an initial assessment, parenting strategies, and referrals to specialists for further support.

- We understand how frustrating constant crying can be for new parents. Colic and reflux are very common concerns. Dr. Adesina can examine your baby to rule out other medical issues, provide strategies to soothe your infant, and discuss potential dietary changes or medications to help manage these conditions.
- How do you manage chronic conditions like asthma or food allergies?
- Dr. Adesina manages chronic conditions like asthma and food allergies by creating a personalized action plan.
