Well-child visits at Cityblock
Well-child visits are more than checkups. They’re an investment in your child’s health. A chance to meet their doctor. A time to ask questions and catch little problems before they become big ones.
Cityblock wants to make these important visits as easy as possible. Call us anytime at 833-904-2273 (TTY: 711) to schedule.
Healthy at school and daycare
Cityblock offers:
- Sports physicals and other school-required checkups
- Vaccines for infants, toddler, children, and youth
- Help coordinating with your child’s school about medications and accommodations
- Support for building healthy habits around food, sleep, and exercise
What vaccines do kids need?
Here for your family 24/7
“Is it normal for a baby to cry this much?”
“My child just started vomiting, and it’s already 10pm.”
“The six-year-old fell and hit their head. They’re acting normal, but should I keep them awake?”
Every parent has to face unexpected and sometimes scary health moments. And when those moments come, you’re not alone. Cityblock has a 24/7 phone advice line you can call at any hour of day or night.
When you have medical questions, call 833-904-2273 (TTY: 711) and get advice from a licensed Cityblock provider. There are no “stupid questions,” and no question is too small.
