Pediatrician in Slavuta

When your child has a fever, a cough, a runny nose, ear, tummy or head pain, vomiting, diarrhea or a rash. Book a visit too if your child is eating poorly, seems weak, sleeps badly, has swollen lymph nodes or had an unusual reaction to a vaccine. A Viva Clinic pediatrician in Slavuta will examine your child, order tests if needed and explain how to treat the illness.

From birth to age 18. The Viva Clinic pediatrician sees both newborns and teenagers, treats common childhood illnesses, and gives referrals to other specialists and for lab tests. For babies, the doctor also does routine checkups.

Every month until age 1, every three months from age 1 to 3, and then at least twice a year, even if your child is not ill. In the first month of life, the pediatrician examines a newborn several times. The doctor sets the exact schedule at the first visit based on your child’s health, so stick to it to see how your child is growing and not miss any vaccinations.

To keep track of your child’s growth and development, catch any problems early and not miss routine vaccinations. At a checkup, the pediatrician weighs your child, measures height and gives advice on breastfeeding, care and starting solid foods. A routine visit is also needed to decide on vaccinations, regular health monitoring and preventing illness, including when a condition runs in the family.

When your child’s usual behavior changes: sudden mood swings, constant fussiness, poor sleep and no energy, or the opposite, overexcitement. Book a visit too if your child complains of constant pain, wheezes, sneezes and coughs, often feels dizzy or has changes in their stools. If your child faints, call an ambulance on 103.

The doctor listens to the parents, asks your child questions if they are old enough to answer, takes a medical history and then examines your child. Babies are examined on a special table with a disposable sheet, older children on an exam couch. The pediatrician checks the skin, development, height and weight, feels the tummy and lymph nodes, and listens to the heart and lungs. If needed, the doctor orders tests or refers you to a specialist.

Common childhood illnesses: colds, pharyngitis, laryngitis, sinusitis, tonsillitis, bronchitis, rotavirus and cystitis. A pediatrician also treats food allergies, atopic dermatitis, asthma, iron deficiency anemia, rickets, bedwetting, intestinal worms and feeding and nutrition problems. Parents also bring children with childhood infections such as chickenpox, measles, rubella, whooping cough or mumps.

Yes, a Viva Clinic pediatrician can see your child at home and carry out a full visit, just as at the clinic. This is handy, for example, during epidemics when you would rather not bring your child to the clinic, or when you want to save time. Ask about the time and terms when you book by phone or Viber.

The pediatrician issues medical certificates, health group reports, referrals to other specialists and sick leave for parents caring for a child. Tell the administrator when you book, and the doctor at the start of the visit, which document you need.
