Think pediatricians only see sick kids? Not even close. 👶🏽💉

We LOVE healthy visits. Why? Because well-child checkups are where prevention starts.

These visits track growth, development, vision, milestones, and more, long before there’s ever a problem.
It’s how we catch concerns early and make sure your child is thriving, not just surviving.

Hand, Foot & Mouth Disease is more than “just a rash.” It’s painful, contagious, and common in toddlers; especially during school breaks and daycare season. 😣

It starts with a fever, then shows up as red spots on hands, feet, and inside the mouth; making eating and drinking hard.

📍If your child is refusing fluids or seems weak—come see us at We R Kids Paediatric Centre.

💬 Parents, have you seen this before? Comment your experience to help others!

Your child has a fever. You’re panicking—ER or urgent care? 😰

Here’s the truth:
Not every late-night scare needs an emergency room.
Think fevers, rashes, ear infections, allergic reactions, minor injuries…
👉 That’s what we’re here for.
