Community Health has medical, dental and behavioral healthcare for kids
Community Health Pediatrics collaborates with Community Kids Dental and Community Health Behavioral Health to provide complete healthcare services for children.
- Community Dental – Healthy teeth and gums are as important for babies and young children as they are for adults. Parents are recommended to schedule their infant’s first dental appointment when the first tooth comes in.
- Pediatric Behavioral Health – By embedding behavioral health into our pediatric practice, our primary care providers help children and their parents meet each patient’s unique emotional and social needs through the growing years.
Kids aren’t just small adults – they have specific needs. Our providers help parents navigate the early years of a child’s life so that they get off to a good start. They continue to work with them as teens and young adults to develop healthy habits they can take with them into adulthood.
