Schedule your child's summer well-check exam

Summer is here! While school is out, schedule your child's pediatric well-check exam, including a sports physical, at ARC. If your child has already received a sports physical, ARC pediatricians still recommend a more comprehensive assessment of your child’s physical and mental health, plus immunizations. If your child completed a well-check exam within the last 12 months, you may not require a new sports physical appointment. Consult your ARC care team for guidance. You can submit the sports form via ARC MyChart or drop it off at the clinic front desk for signature.

Conveniently book your appointment at ARC MyChart, visit ARCcheckup.com, or call 512-272-4636.

Breathe easy with pediatric asthma care

While asthma makes it harder to breathe, many children with asthma can stay active, sleep better, and participate in typical school and sports activities with the right treatment. Ricardo J. Chapa, MD, Pediatrician at ARC Dripping Springs, says kids with asthma can lead an active life. “The key is to have an asthma management plan in place with the help of your pediatrician."

To make an appointment with Dr. Chapa or your child’s pediatrician, log in to ARC MyChart, visit ARCpediatrics.com, or call 512-272-4636.

Teachers, summer is one of the best times to book your annual physical exam, gynecological exam, or general checkup. With fewer work demands during the summer months, it's easier to attend appointments, follow up on results, and complete routine lab work or health screenings without feeling rushed.
