Newborn Baby Care
Newborn Care at Mindful Pediatrics & Adolescent Medicine
Welcome to Mindful Pediatrics & Adolescent Medicine! We are delighted to be a part of your journey into parenthood. Our comprehensive newborn care services ensure that your baby receives the best possible start in life, from the moment they are born at the hospital to their first visit to our clinic.
Hospital Care
If your baby is born at Emory Johns Creek Hospital, you can rest assured knowing that Dr. Thomas, our esteemed pediatrician, is credentialed to provide care right at the hospital. Dr. Thomas will visit your newborn shortly after birth to conduct a thorough examination, ensuring that your baby is healthy and well. This initial check-up is crucial for identifying any immediate health concerns and providing the necessary care.
Before you and your baby are discharged from the hospital, Dr. Thomas will visit again to sign off on the discharge papers. This ensures a smooth transition from hospital to home, giving you peace of mind that your baby is in excellent health.
First Clinic Visit
After leaving the hospital, it is essential for your newborn to have a follow-up visit at our clinic within the next couple of days. This visit allows us to monitor your baby’s health and development closely. During this appointment, Dr. Thomas will:
-
Conduct a comprehensive physical examination
-
Check your baby’s weight, length, and head circumference
-
Discuss feeding and sleeping patterns
-
Address any concerns or questions you may have as new parents
Our goal is to support you and your baby during these critical early days, ensuring that you have all the information and resources you need.

You can easily reserve your baby’s first appointment at our clinic through our online booking system or by calling our office. We recommend scheduling this appointment as soon as possible after your baby is born to ensure timely care.
