Our office may be located in Cumming, but we welcome families from our surrounding cities and from all across Forsyth County. Patients love us so much that college-aged students call on us for telemedicine visits when away at college, and come back to see us during school breaks.
At Vickery Pediatrics, we want to be there for your child throughout their years of growth and development. Our pediatricians provide the best preventive treatments through well-child visits and careful monitoring of your child’s progress. Of course, we are available for same-day sick visits in the event of illness or injury. When appropriate, and when traveling to our Cumming office is not possible, we also use telemedicine services for convenience and easy access.
Our pediatricians work to identify any hidden health issues and monitor them as necessary. In everyday life however, children occasionally become sick with a cold, ear infection, sore throat and so on, causing concern for the family. When a child becomes ill, parents do have options.
To deal with unexpected illnesses that are considered urgent (but non-emergency), parents can contact us for pediatric sick care visits. This includes scheduling an urgent care or same-day sick appointment at our Cumming pediatrician office.
As opposed to an urgent care situation, during their child’s developmental years parents may notice a behavioral or developmental concern at some point. These issues can include the following.
Our pediatric doctors can evaluate children for behavioral and developmental disorders, and will work with parents to identify the child’s needs. Parents will also receive guidance on limiting the long-term impact of a disorder.
Visiting our Cumming office is an important part of your child’s care, but retrieving test results, paying outstanding balances, requesting medication refills and remote appointments are all possible via the healow™ app.
Children grow and develop quickly, making well-child visits a great opportunity to check that a child is reaching the expected physical, social and cognitive milestones. Checkups for infants and toddlers will be fairly frequent, allowing your pediatrician to monitor development and administer immunizations. Preschoolers and school-aged children require annual checkups, including a physical examination and age-appropriate health guidance.
Dietary and nutritional counseling is one particularly important area for young children. It can be difficult to know what to feed your children at various stages of their development, and you may experience resistance to many healthy food choices. Your pediatrician can advise on all aspects of childhood nutrition, helping make the process far easier.
To enroll in their programs, sports and camp physicals are often required by schools and other organizations. Our pediatric team will help ensure that your child is able to participate safely. This reassures parents, and lets the sports leagues and camp organizers know that your child is physically able to take part in activities.
At Vickery Pediatrics, our prenatal visits allow you to get to know your pediatrician and the staff at our Cumming office. Parents use these visits to ask questions and establish familiarity with their medical team. Once your baby is born, a newborn well-child visit will take place a few days after giving birth. It involves measuring your baby, initial sensory screening – and giving any necessary immunizations.
