Well-Child
Check-ups
Regular reviews when your child is well are the most powerful preventive care there is: growth, vaccines, development and guidance, all in one visit.
Medically reviewed by Dr. Chitrakshi Tewari, MD (Paediatrics)
A well-child check-up is a routine visit when your child is healthy, to track growth, keep vaccinations on schedule, screen development and answer your questions. Catching issues early on a growth chart or milestone checklist makes them far easier to manage. Dr. Chitrakshi Tewari offers online well-child consultations with growth monitoring, IAP vaccination planning and developmental reviews across India.
Why well visits matter even when nothing is wrong
The best paediatric care happens before problems appear. A well-child visit tracks growth on standard WHO charts, keeps vaccinations on schedule, screens development, and gives you a dedicated space to ask everything that has collected since the last visit. Problems caught on a growth chart or a milestone checklist are almost always easier to treat early.
What each check-up covers
How the online format works
You share your child's weight, height and vaccination record before the call. During the video consultation we plot growth, review milestones together, plan upcoming vaccines using the IAP immunisation schedule, and discuss feeding, sleep, screens and behaviour. You receive a written summary and an updated plan after every visit.
Frequent visits in the first year (aligned with vaccine visits), then roughly every 3 to 6 months through early childhood, and yearly for school-age children and teens, in line with paediatric guidance such as the AAP's Bright Futures schedule.
