Child Behavior in Rockville, MD
Gold Pediatrics recognizes that a child's emotional health is as important as his or her physical health. Emotional problems in a child or teenager can present as a physical or behavior problem. Therefore, at Gold Pediatrics, we take the time to do a thorough evaluation of your child physically, emotionally, and developmentally. This type of care may take more time than one office visit, and may require referrals to other medical specialists, but this is our commitment to your child's well-being.
