Pediatric Healthcare
At Family First, we specialize in pediatric care for children from birth through college. We know just how big a role these small people play in parents' lives. We understand the concerns of parents, and allow plenty of time to answer your questions and provide guidance as your child grows.
As the mother of four children herself, Dr. Federici uses a common-sense approach to pediatrics and parenting. We believe very strongly in healthy lifestyle as well as the importance of wellness visits for all infants and children. Wellness visits for infants and children provide important opportunities to monitor growth and development, detect abnormalities, complete routine screenings and immunizations, and provide anticipatory guidance for parents. We truly enjoy getting to know each and every child through regular visits.
If you or a loved one is having a new baby, give us a call!
