Looking for a doctor for your child in Northeast Houston?
At Vecino’s Denver Harbor Family Health Center, we offer complete, affordable care for children—from newborns to teens. In this article, you’ll learn why choosing a family doctor is a smart choice for your child’s health, what services are available, and how we make care accessible for every family, with or without insurance.
Great care, two options: Pediatricians and family doctors
Choosing a doctor for your child is an important decision. The good news is that both family doctors and pediatricians are trained and experienced in caring for children. Whether you have a baby, a teen, or a child in between—you can count on either type of doctor.
Both family doctors and pediatricians provide preventative care, including:
- Well-child checkups
- Immunizations
- Sports and school physicals
- Developmental screenings
- Nutrition and growth guidance
- Treatment for common childhood illnesses and injuries
Care that fits your family’s needs
Seeing the same doctor as other family members has real benefits. Your doctor gets to know your family’s medical history and can spot health patterns that may affect your child. If specific health issues run in your family, it helps to have one doctor who knows the whole picture and can provide care for everyone.
No insurance? No problem.
Most health insurance plans—including Medicaid and CHIP—are accepted at Denver Harbor Family Health Center. But you don’t need insurance to be a patient.
We make health care affordable for every member of your family. Learn more.
Convenient for the whole family
Bringing your child to the same doctor you see can be easy and comforting. Family doctors care for people of all ages—from newborns to grandparents—so your whole family can get care in one place.
For busy families, it’s helpful to have one place close to home where everyone can go. You can schedule visits back-to-back. For example, a dad can talk to the doctor about his blood pressure before his daughter gets her school physical. A mom and her son with the same cold symptoms can be treated during the same visit.
Having a trusted center for the whole family makes things easier. You’ll know who to call, whether it’s a checkup, an unexpected illness, or help managing a long-term condition.
