The
Well Child Checkup includes:

- Complete physical exam
- Vision and hearing checkup
- Laboratory tests

Some health problems are not visible to parents or teachers, and may only be found by a doctor or nurse, or through lab tests.
Health problems found early are usually easier to treat, and will decrease any long-term problems.
