Going back to school and back to the pediatrician
Since the start of school is right around the corner for families in central Florida, many of us will be taking our children to the pediatrician for an annual visit. Even if your child is completely healthy and hasn’t been sick in a very long time, it is still important to call and make that appointment with the pediatrician every year. I would recommend calling earlier in the summer to schedule an appointment with your pediatrician, since there are usually fewer sick children that come in over the summer, and more appointment times may be available. You will also avoid the big rush of patients trying to see the doctor for annual check-ups right before school starts in the fall.

One year later... how to help your children
As caregivers, we do our best to help and protect our children. When a tragedy like the pulse shooting happens, it is difficult for us as adults to make sense of it, much less to help our children do so. Usually, anniversaries of a tragedy bring back emotions and thoughts that may have already settled. Therefore, it is a good idea to have some tips handy in case you notice the following characteristics in your children that were not there before:

Is your preschool or daycare doing enough to protect your child from the flu?
Each year around this time we start talking about the flu, and we keep talking about it. Why, you ask? Because the flu is a real and serious threat for small children. Each year millions of children get sick with the seasonal flu virus, thousands of children are hospitalized and some of those unfortunately will die from complications of the flu.

Get to Know Dr Xiomara Santos
It’s not very often that we have time to get to know the doctors who take care of us. They’re busy, and we’re focused on whatever issue has brought us to them as a patient.
