Home visits bring the newborn examination to you. Dr. Mehr checks how your baby is feeding and growing, assesses concerns such as jaundice, and answers questions about the first days at home.
In the office
Follow-up visits track growth and development and include vaccinations as your baby gets older. You can discuss feeding changes, sleep, and the milestones you are beginning to notice.
