WEST PLAINS, MO – Ozarks Healthcare Pediatrics invites families to beat the summer heat and prioritize their children’s health with a free, fun-filled “Chill and Check-Up” event on Today, July 8, from 1 to 5 p.m. at Ozarks Healthcare Pediatrics, located at 312 Kentucky Ave. in West Plains.
This free community event is open to all and designed to make meeting your local pediatricians enjoyable for children and stress-free for parents while also getting ready to send your children back to school. Families can enjoy snow cones, crafts and activities, door prizes, and bounce house fun.
A meet-and-greet with Ozarks Healthcare pediatric providers will also be included Dr. Karen Johal, Dr. Carolyn Ellsworth, Bridgette Hendrix, family nurse practitioner, and Dr. Jose Crespo, new OB/GYN at Ozarks Healthcare Women’s Health.
“This event is a great way for families to meet our pediatric team, take advantage of important preventive services, and enjoy a little summer fun,” Jacob Petrus, Vice President of Physician Services and Operations at Ozarks Healthcare, said. “Whether you’re new to the area or already a patient, we welcome everyone to stop by, cool off, and check in on your child’s health. This is also a wonderful opportunity to visit with Ozarks Healthcare providers and meet Dr. Crespo, a new provider we are excited to have caring for women’s health needs in our area.”
Free vision checks and fluoride treatments for kids will also be offered, along with appointment scheduling assistance. Families can also check immunization records to ensure kids are caught up for their milestones. Appointments can be made on site within seven days if needed.
