the check-up
August 12th, 2008On another note, we took our son to the world’s greatest pediatrician, today. Dr Jane Anderson at Mt Zion Pediatrics. If you are in the market, I can’t recommend her enough. But, that is not why I’m writing…
At 4, the kids get hearing and vision tests in addition to the standard well baby stuff like blood pressure, weight/height, etc. I spent a good 20 minutes in the bathroom enjoying the tiny flush toilet with our independent potty trainee, so I missed a bit, but I did catch enough to see my typically outgoing son clam up to a case of stage fright when it came time for him to say his full name or identify the many lines of images on the eye chart. I’m just waiting for the call from our pediatrician telling me the kiddo needs glasses. How successful are these tests, usually?
