well-child visits
Routine childhood appointments
Well-child visits are routine pediatric checkups for healthy children, scheduled at regular intervals from infancy through adolescence.
These appointments focus on preventive care—vaccinations, developmental screening, growth monitoring—rather than treating illness: The pediatrician recommended well-child visits every few months for the first year.
Also called well-baby visits for infants.
