Children & Adolescent Services Include:

  • School and Sports Physicals

    Our qualified healthcare professionals perform school, camp, and sports physicals for your child. Typically, a thorough physical is required in order to confirm your child is fit and healthy for the physical demands of sports, camp, and physical exercise classes at school. These physicals are to protect your child and the well-being of others as well. Evaluating your child's physical health will confirm their physical qualifications and limits.

  • Teen Physicals

    Adolescent medicine is a sub-branch of pediatric medicine that focuses on the care of adolescents from ages 10 – 18. Typically, patients of this age group have entered puberty, which differs between boys and girls. Young male patients commonly undergo puberty around age 13 and girls around age 11. Our services include, growth and development counseling, HPV screening, and more.

  • Acute Illnesses

    Acute illnesses in children are common but often manageable with prompt care and attention. These conditions, such as colds, ear infections, strep throat, and stomach bugs, typically develop quickly and last for a short period. Early diagnosis and treatment are essential to ensure your child recovers quickly and comfortably. Our team is here to provide expert care, guidance, and support to help your child feel better while offering tips to prevent future illnesses.

  • ADD/ADHD

    Attention Deficit Disorder (ADD) and Attention Deficit/Hyperactivity Disorder (ADHD) are conditions that affect focus, behavior, and activity levels in children. While ADD is often used to describe the inattentive type of ADHD, ADHD encompasses a broader spectrum, including inattentive, hyperactive-impulsive, and combined types. Diagnosing these disorders requires a comprehensive evaluation rather than a single test. Our team conducts a thorough assessment, gathering information from parents, teachers, and clinical observations to create an accurate diagnosis and personalized treatment plan. If your child is experiencing unusual difficulty maintaining focus or managing their attention span, it’s important to seek professional guidance to support their development and well-being.

  • Injuries

    We all know that when children play, they tend to play hard and with all the gusto they can muster. With that being said, we also understand that accidents on the playground are almost inevitable. Our highly-trained medical physicians are fully equipped to evaluate and treat playground related injuries. No matter how minor or severe, from deep gashes to broken bones, our staff will take great care of your child's injuries.

  • Adolescent Sexual Counseling

    As children enter puberty, their bodies and minds undergo significant changes that can feel overwhelming for both them and their parents. Our goal is to provide education and guidance to help you and your child navigate this important stage of development, including managing hormonal changes, evolving emotions, and increased curiosity about relationships and sexuality. We encourage parents to actively participate in their child's sexual development counseling, fostering open communication and trust. While discussing topics like puberty and sexuality can sometimes feel awkward or uncomfortable, our team is here to support you every step of the way, offering resources, advice, and compassionate care to make these conversations easier and more meaningful.

At Family Medicine Associates of Texas, our goal is maintain the highest quality of medical standards and to provide service that will benefit you and your child's health.
