While we are thankfully seeing a decline in COVID-19 cases, it is something that we are still consistently treating at Anderson Hills Pediatrics. In addition, we continue to treat other common illnesses for this time of year such as flu and strep. There is often an overlap in these symptoms, so proper testing is important to determine the best course of treatment for your child.
Since early on in the pandemic, Anderson Hills Pediatrics has had the ability to offer advanced DNA testing technology for flu, COVID, and strep testing in a single visit. These advanced technology tests are designed to detect these common conditions, regardless of the strain. We are also able to provide you with the results of your child’s tests before you leave our office! If you believe your child may be in need of testing, please contact our triage team to discuss and determine if an appointment is needed at 513-232-8100.
