What are the pediatric services?

Clinica San Miguel is a full-service family medicine practice that focuses on meeting all of your general health needs. Some of the pediatric services available at the clinic include:

Primary care

Primary care serves as your health manager, caring for all of your health needs. Clinica San Miguel provides primary care services for children starting at age 12, including physical exams, vaccinations, and sick care. 

Primary care also manages chronic health issues that affect the pediatric population such as allergies.

School physical exams

Clinica San Miguel also provides school physical exams. Many schools require school physical exams before children can start school. These exams usually include information about your child’s general health and vaccination status.
