Frequently Asked Questions
Each child has differing needs, so their provider can recommend a pediatrics care schedule for your child’s individual circumstances. In most cases, healthy children should see their pediatrics care provider at least once a year for a checkup.
The providers at Sanctuary Health Practices are also here for all your child’s illnesses and injuries on an as-needed basis. Same-day appointments are usually available when your child needs urgent care.
Dr. Littlejohn offers comprehensive pediatric care, including:
Well-child care
