Newborn Care

Our pediatric clinic provides care to newborns, infants, toddlers, children, adolescents and young adults. We are conveniently located on Ogden Avenue in Downers Grove. We serve the Chicagoland area including Hinsdale, Lisle, Naperville, Westmont, Glen Ellyn, Lombard and beyond. Recommended childhood immunizations are given to keep infections at bay and regular examinations are done to ensure normal development. We discuss any issues you may have about your child’s development and well being.

Newborn examination

Personalized pediatric care begins with a visit by Dr. Akin. She will see your newborn baby in the hospital soon after birth. She will also perform a thorough and detailed physical examination. This helps ensure that your baby is healthy. Dr. Akin will make sure appropriate screening tests are completed.

 

Well Child Visit

Whether your baby is born at Good Samaritan Hospital in Downers Grove, Hinsdale Hospital or Edward Hospital in Naperville, your excellent and caring pediatrician is just a call away. In the clinic, Dr. Akin will see your newborn soon after discharge from the hospital. She will answer questions you may have about breastfeeding. Subsequent clinic visits are key to ensuring that your child is growing and developing normally.

Sick Visits

If your child does get sick, either with a fever (temperature of 100.4 of higher), vomiting, asthma exacerbation, or any other medical problems, we are here to help. We offer 24 hour telephone service to ensure that Dr. Akin or any member of the medical team can be reached at all times and same day clinic visits are usually accommodated in our schedule. We take pride in the personalized care we provide to your child. 

Flu season is upon us! Educate yourself on ways to prevent yourself and your child from getting sick.

ADHD Evaluation and Treatment

Behavior problems or learning difficulties can be challenging and difficult to detect. Using standardized methods, we will help you determine what the cause of the problem may be, and help your child in the most appropriate way to reach their full potential.
