Caring for Children From Age 9 Through High School
Care does not stop when your child gets older. One thing that sets TVP apart is that we offer specialized care for your growing adolescent. We know this group often gets overlooked and we want to make sure their needs are met. This is a hard age!
Our Adolescent Clinic is a quieter, more grown-up environment for older children and young adults. We provide quality adolescent care for your children to cope with their new bodies and new concerns and what you need to know as a parent.
For most visits to Tennessee Valley Pediatrics, you may choose to go to any office with your adolescent; however, some visits require a certain office because of equipment or type of appointment.
Meggin Tallman, CRNP and Taylor Phillips, CRNP are our primary adolescent providers; although other providers can certainly care for this age. Meggin and Taylor love the challenges this age brings and are here to help ensure your big kid is thriving.
If you are current on checkups, you may walk in for vaccines from 9:00 -11:00 am and 2:00 - 4:00 pm, Monday through Friday.
Walk-in Clinic
We know that it is hard to schedule with this age because they are busy! We offer walk-in hours at the Adolescent Clinic (ages 9 and up) for sick children or a last minute sports physical. We can see your child as a walk in from 8-11am and from 1-4pm, Monday through Friday.
We cannot see your child for anxiety, depression, behavior concerns, birth control or medication rechecks in the walk-in clinic. Please call ahead to schedule these appointments.
