As a pediatric practice, we believe caring for children also means caring for the communities they grow up in. In that spirit, we stand in support of the National Shutdown on January 30, 2026. While our office will remain open to provide essential healthcare services to our patients and families, we are joining this day of collective action in meaningful ways as a practice. Our commitment is to continue showing up for children’s health while also standing with our community and the values of care, responsibility, and solidarity.

Pathogens have not changed, only "policies".    Berkeley Pediatrics does not anticipate any changes to our vaccine schedule or to the availability of vaccines to our patients. We stand by the American Academy of Pediatrics published vaccine schedule which is also supported by the California Department of Public Health (CDPH) and the West Coast Health Alliance (WCHA).

The Benefits of Well-Child Care Exams

When it comes to taking care of your child, you want to make sure that you’re caring for them, even when they aren’t sick. You must be able to do all that you can to prevent your child from dealing with a severe sickness that might affect their daily lives. The best way to ensure that your child stays as healthy as possible is through well-child care exams. These exams help to make sure that any issues your child is dealing with are being treated as early as possible and that your child stays healthy and happy.

How Well-Child Care Exams Help Your Child

When it comes to your child’s health, you must be giving them just as much care when they’re healthy as when they are sick. When you take your child to their pediatrician for well-child care exams, you’re making sure that your child is prepared for any sickness that they may come in contact with and that any issues are being dealt with in a timely manner.

During an exam, your child’s pediatrician will examine every part of your child’s body, making sure that everything is functioning as it should. They’ll also check that there aren’t any illnesses that aren’t being treated. You can also take this time to check that your child is up to date on their vaccines and that they’re protected from whatever may come their way.

Well-child care exams also give you the space to air any concerns that you may have about your child’s health. You’ll be able to ask questions directly to their pediatrician and make sure that you’re making the best decisions for your child’s health.
