The Internet has given today's parents access to virtually unlimited
resources and references related to healthcare issues. While we encourage
the parents of our patients to be well-informed and to thoroughly research
your health questions, we also ask that you keep
in mind that some of the web-based information you find may differ from
the practice philosophy and treatment goals of Forest Hills Pediatrics.
Listed below are just a few of the many web sites available to parents.
Please enjoy searching and learning through these websites. However, we
encourage you to discuss specific findings with your physician here at
Forest Hills Pediatrics prior to taking action that involves the health
of your child. We'd be happy to discuss your concerns during your well-child
appointments or if you have an
immediate health concern, please call our office at (616) 949-4465.
