Medical Weight Loss
Nutritional Counseling
Nutritional counseling helps parents and adolescents understand the growing body’s nutritional and caloric needs. For parents of young children, our pediatricians provide guidance for what and how much your child should eat. Topics ranging from picky eating to managing portion sizes can also be discussed. For adolescents, we provide nutritional education to establish healthy eating habits that can be maintained through adulthood. With so many sources of information around, it is important to speak to a doctor for advice on your child’s nutritional needs. Lifestyle adjustments may be suggested to maintain a healthy weight.

Emergency Care
An allergy is a hypersensitive immune response to a substance called an allergen. Most allergens are harmless, but there are some that can prove life threatening if not immediately treated. Each person may have a different allergic response to any number of allergens. Substances such as pet dander, mold, insect venom and pollen are common allergens. Some people may even have a reaction to materials like latex, wool, or cotton. The most common forms of allergens can be found in the pollen from plants and flowers, foods and beverages, insect bites or stings, or pet dander. While hay fever is the most commonly known allergy, food allergies are becoming much more prevalent. When a person has an allergic reaction, the body fights the allergen as if it were a pathogen and tries to eliminate it from the system. An acute reaction to an allergen results in anaphylaxis, a potentially life-threatening condition which requires immediate emergency care. Allergies can be treated with over-the-counter medications, prescription medicines such as inhalers, or through shots administered by a physician.
Immunizations
Children, especially young infants, can become severely ill when faced with an infectious disease. Through vaccination, the immune systems of these little ones are trained to recognize and counter these specific infections before they can overwhelm the body. Furthermore, as entire communities become immunized, these infections have nowhere to spread and can be potentially eradicated altogether.

Autism
Other behavioral disorders in children include autism, depression, anxiety, obsessive-compulsive disorder (OCD) and bipolar disorder, although the last is rarely diagnosed. Autism is a spectrum disorder, meaning that there is a wide degree of variation in the way it affects people. The disorder can make it difficult for a child to interact with their surroundings or build emotional connections with others.

Attention Deficit Hyperactivity Disorder (ADHD)
For children with ADHD, levels of inattention, hyperactivity or impulsivity are greater than those in other children their age. ADHD can make it difficult for a child to do their best in school or to behave at home, school or other community settings. There are three types of ADHD: predominantly inattentive, predominantly hyperactive, and impulsive, and a combined form.
Depression
Mental Health
There is an epidemic of loneliness and isolation in the US. It can cause physical and mental health consequences and increase the risk of heart disease, stroke and dementia. Here are some ways to manage from @lbhealthdept
