DELIVERING COMPASSIONATE CARE
TO CHILDREN OF ALL AGES
Your kids mean the world to you and so should their healthcare. From newborns to 18-year-olds, Dr. Myrick has experience delivering compassionate care to children of all ages. As a mother of two small children, she knows what it’s like to deal with those runny noses and fussy restless nights when your young ones are sick. She will help you care for your family and teach you what to look out for so you can feel confident as a parent.
Aside from sick visits, children also benefit from regular well child checks. At these visits Dr. Myrick reviews height and weight growth parameters, developmental milestones, healthy eating habits, activity levels, and anticipatory guidance key for your child’s age range. Age-appropriate screenings for anemia, lead toxicity, tuberculosis, high cholesterol, hearing or vision problems, and autism are also conducted at these visits.

Let going to the doctor be fun
Immunizations are a critical aspect of pediatric care. Making sure your child is protected from a number of preventable but devastating illnesses is a top priority.
If you have any questions or concerns regarding immunizations, Dr. Myrick is happy to have an open discussion with you about your concerns. Click here for our pediatric vaccine schedule.
Newborn care can be very daunting for new (or even experienced) parents! Dr. Myrick specializes in newborn health and has extended appointment slots for newborn visits to ensure you have time to get all your questions answered. Newborn rashes, colic, feeding patterns, sleep routines, safety concerns, and jaundice are just a few of the most commonly encountered issues with newborns. And if breastfeeding is your goal, Dr. Myrick has extensive training in lactation support and will encourage you every step of the way!
