What is a well child check-up?
During well child check-ups, we monitor growth and development, address health-related questions, and provide a framework for providing immunizations to protect children from serious infectious disease.
Check-Up Scheduling
Please call our regular number, (802) 434-5090, to make an appointment with the doctor and time of your choice. We're pleased to have Dr. Andrea Tidman joining us in September 2021.
We recommend check-ups at the following times:
- For newborns, two days after discharge from the hospital and again at 2 weeks
- At 2, 4, 6, 9, 12, 15, 18, 24 months (and, in some cases, at 30 months)
- At 2, 3, 4, and 5 years
- At least every other year during elementary school years (or every year, if parents desire)
- Every year during adolescence
Sick Visits
View on separate pageWe offer same-day appointments for ill patients (including evenings, weekends and holidays on an as-needed basis). We also provide procedural services such as simple laceration repair (gluing or suturing) and foreign body removal, as well as some minor orthopedic injury care.
Please understand that you or your child will not always leave the appointment with a prescription for a medication as we take very seriously our duty to prescribe judiciously, in particular with reference to antibiotics.
Immunizations
View on separate pageImmunizations are an integral part of our children's and population's health. With the addition of each new immunization there has been a measurable and marked improvement in the health of our children.
Most vaccines administered in our office are provided by the Vermont Department of Health.
Inpatient Care

We provide in-hospital care of term and late preterm newborns as well as care of patients needing admission to the hospital (other than those needing care in the Intensive Care Unit).
