Summer comes with expectations of loads of fun, but it is also the perfict time to check up on the health and well-being of children.

A ‘summer’ health check-up’ is ideal to address any health concern of children and It also allows you to monitor the progress of your child to ensure that he or she is growing and developing normally.
