Well Visits

LeBlanc Pediatrics is unique in that it was built with the idea of providing a quality, efficient patient experience. Upon entering our clinic, you notice our open concept front desk concept without a glass partition. We provide two completely separate waiting rooms for well and sick children, but our entire clinic is divided into a well and sick wing. This exclusive design increases infection control and reduces the risk of illness when coming for routine well visits. The well waiting room has movies playing to help keep children entertained while parents complete ASQ questionnaires to track their child’s development to ensure they are meeting their developmental milestones.
