Athletics requires your child to be physically fit before participating. How many times has your child mentioned that they need a sports physical in a couple of days and “forgot” to bring it up weeks ago? Don’t spend weeks on the sideline waiting for your primary care doctor to be available for a physical. Same day appointments are available during the weekdays for pediatric physical exams at our clinic. While making time to get a physical for your child may disrupt your day, they are vital in keeping them safe in athletic activities. Physicals conducted by our highly-experienced pediatricians will pinpoint any possible underlying conditions that may be aggravated by strenuous physical activity. We will work with you to find the best possible treatment plans to attempt to alleviate these conditions. If we are unable to, you can at the very least move forward with this knowledge so not to put your child in unneeded danger.

Pediatric physical exams differ from adult physicals in many way, which is why so many parents bring children to Dr. Barriga’s children’s clinic. Getting a physical by itself can be scary and rather uncomfortable. All of this happening to a young child from someone they don’t know in a building they’ve never been in before only magnifies this frightening feeling. Unlike an adult, a child may be unwilling or unable to verbalize how they feel to clue a doctor into any possible undiagnosed conditions. Fortunately for parents in the Tampa, FL area, Dr. Julia Barriga and her colleagues are quite experienced when working with such young patients. Their compassionate bedside manner combined with their efficient physical exams will make sure any scary or moments of discomfort are quick and quickly forgotten. It is our goal to make our children’s clinic to be place where young patients know they can go to feel better.
