Child Health & Pediatrics Services

NYC Health + Hospitals knows that children have unique needs and require special care. That’s why we encourage routine visits to our primary care medical homes so we get to know your child to build a foundation for their best health. Our emphasis on preventive care helps you and your child take steps to prevent injuries and illness too.

Even during the COVID-19 pandemic, it is important your child doesn’t fall behind on their vaccine schedule. Vaccinations are available at NYC Health + Hospitals sites that are located throughout New York City.

Special attention has been placed on ensuring that these sites are safe and are following recommendations to decrease your exposure to germs during your visit.
