ADHD is one of the most pervasive mental disorders affecting children and adults, yet there are still many misconceptions and stigmas surrounding the condition. Having your child professionally evaluated and diagnosed can make it easier to navigate life with ADHD and allow you and your child to get the proper support.
If your child is heading to summer camp or playing a school sport, they will most likely be required to complete a physical exam before they can participate. As your premier partner in health, Atracare offers camp and sports physicals so children in the Lewes community can enjoy all the benefits of getting active.
Your baby’s first well visit is important because it establishes them with a pediatrician, marks the start of their health history, allows the doctor to examine them for any issues, and gives you the opportunity to ask questions. Your baby’s pediatrician will be able to answer your burning questions and provide you with general advice and specific guidance for your child’s health.
As your child grows and develops, it is very important that they are regularly evaluated by a pediatrician. Even if your child is healthy, taking them to the doctor for well checks can help prevent future health issues and ensure they are on track with immunizations and developmental milestones.
You should take your child to see the doctor if they are experiencing fevers, vomiting, ear pain, cold symptoms, sore throat, or they just aren’t themselves. The Pediatricians of Atracare Health are here to help.

At Atracare, we treat differently-abled children with physical, developmental, emotional, and sensory conditions. Our skilled pediatricians are trained in diagnosing and treating children that may have developmental needs.
Doing a search for pediatricians in your area is a good place to start, and you may be able to get referrals from your OBGYN. Once you have a list of pediatricians, you can schedule meetings with them. Your insurance provider may also be of help if you need a list of pediatricians that accept your insurance.
