Recent ACIP discussions have suggested changes to the birth Hepatitis B vaccine, but AAP (American Academy of Pediatrics) continues to strongly recommend the birth dose . Before this practice began, 30,000 babies contracted Hepatitis B every year , 90% became chronically infected , and 1 in 4 died from liver cancer or cirrhosis .  For your child’s safety, we continue to follow AAP guidelines.

How Kidz1st Prepares for Your Child’s Well Visit

Serving our community for over 50 years!


Kidz1st Pediatrics is proud to continue its 50 year tradition of providing high quality, evidence based pediatric medical care for patients in Oakland County, Michigan.

Our goal at Kidz1st is to help improve the well being of our patients, their families, and our team. We strive to fulfill this by open communication, compassion, collaboration and team work, advocating for each child, family and the community at large.

This means providing a wide range of services to meet our family’s needs. We welcome new patients, whether newborns, or transferring to our practice or our area. We invite you to set up a “Meet the Provider” visit, a free service which can be done in person or via telemedicine. This will allow you to have a visit where you can meet some of our staff and see if we are a good fit.

We invite you to browse through our website to help you familiarize yourself with who we are. We believe that well-informed care givers are central to raising a healthy and happy family, and we created this website with that in mind.

Call anytime for more information, healthcare advice or to schedule an appointment.

At Kidz1st, care begins before your visit. This short video explains how our team reviews your child’s chart and why completing pre-visit questionnaires helps us provide thoughtful, personalized care at every well visit.
 


We look forward to seeing you soon!
