Welcome to IHA Arbor Park Pediatrics (formerly IHA Pediatric Healthcare - Arbor Park)! The physicians and staff of IHA Arbor Park Pediatrics are pleased that you have selected our practice. We are committed to providing your child with the highest quality pediatric care and giving your family the best possible service. If you are interested in learning more about our practice, we offer monthly meet the provider nights. We provide important health maintenance services for children of all ages and take care of infant, childhood and adolescent illnesses. Health maintenance visits include regular physical exams, immunizations, and the monitoring of growth and development. We also review your childs school performance, psycho-social development, and the well being of your family. Our practice promotes regular check-ups and prompt treatment of illnesses to prevent health problems in accordance with the guidelines of the American Academy of Pediatrics. Pediatric nurse practitioners are an integral part of our practice. They perform health maintenance examinations, visit newborns at the hospital, and provide limited, supervised care for minor illnesses. They have extended specialized post-graduate education and are highly trained to examine children and counsel parents on growth and development. If you are entering the practice as the parents of a newborn, your first encounter with our practice will be in the hospital. Our physician will review the hospital records and do the initial exam on your newborn. You will be visited by a physician and pediatric nurse practitioner during your hospital stay. IHA Arbor Park Pediatrics is involved with Reach Out and Read, which may be of interest to patients and their families. We practice in conjunction with the Bright Futures guidelines and the health care needs of each patient. Information about the Bright Futures guidelines can be found below. As a practice we know that preventive care, including vaccinations, is the most important part of our service to our patients and families. To best protect your children, our other patients, as well as our staff and providers from vaccine-preventable illness, we have made the decision to only accept families into our practice who plan to fully vaccinate their children according to the CDC, American Academy of Pediatrics and American Academy of Family Physicians guidelines.
