NICU Follow-Up
An early gift always puts a smile on people's faces. However, the gift of birth can quickly become a dismal affair when it is early. The complications related to premature birth are many. Hence, it is essential to be up-to-date on the level of neonatal care infants need. One way to effectively cover these needs is through neonatal follow-up activities.
At Pediatric Health Specialists (PHS), we operate Neonatal Intensive Care Units (NICUs) to care for critically ill newborns. We use state-of-the-art equipment and a highly experienced team of clinicians consisting of neonatologists and neonatal nurses to help babies graduate from the NICU successfully.

Wellness Visits
The physical and intellectual development of children differs significantly from that of adults. The development period is crucial in a growing child's life since there is significant scope to address developmental issues with medical treatment. Hence, frequent wellness visits with a board-certified pediatrician are important for your child. It enables you to accurately monitor your child's growth and development.
PHS provides general wellness examinations for children to help identify physical and behavioral health issues in their earliest childhood development stages. We are dedicated to helping parents realize the most crucial goal of wellness checkups: creating a caring, trustworthy connection among parents, kids, and our behavioral health pediatrician.
Developmental Delay
It is natural for parents to get concerned when their children fail to develop as expected for their age. Our developmental delay treatment services at Pediatric Health Specialists include developmental screening, speech impairment testing, autism screening, and customized ADHD interventions. We aim to improve the lives of children who face developmental challenges and delayed developmental milestones and to support their families throughout their child’s journey into adulthood.
Chronic Illness
Our chronic disease management services at PHS include pediatric treatment for chronic obesity, different types of allergies, asthma, and eczema in children. We firmly believe that children suffering from any of these chronic medical conditions need to be a part of family life, social life, and educational and leisure activities, just like all other children. Therefore, we follow an individualized approach to care that addresses the physical and emotional needs of each child with a chronic illness. We also encourage parents and other caregivers to participate in our nutritional, family education, and psychological counseling sessions to ensure your child’s healthy transition back into the community.
