What Does a Pediatrician Do?
Pediatric care providers manage your child's health from the first newborn exam through childhood. They perform well-child visits, administer vaccinations, track developmental milestones, diagnose and treat childhood illnesses, and refer to specialists when needed. Many families choose their pediatrician before birth and have the provider visit the baby in the hospital. Building a relationship with a pediatrician you trust is one of the most important steps in your care team.
Common credentials
How to Choose a Pediatrician in Denver
Visit the practice before your due date — many pediatricians offer prenatal meet-and-greet appointments.
Ask about their approach to common topics: vaccination schedules, breastfeeding support, sleep guidance, and when to call versus go to urgent care.
Check their availability — same-day sick visits, after-hours advice lines, and weekend hours matter when you have a newborn.
Consider logistics: location, parking, wait times, and whether they offer telehealth for minor concerns.
Ask if the practice has lactation support or can refer you quickly if breastfeeding issues arise.
Cost and Insurance for Pediatric Care Providers in Colorado
Typical cost
Well-child visits and vaccinations are covered by insurance as preventive care. Sick visits have standard copays. Without insurance, well-child visits typically cost $100 to $300.
Insurance coverage
Preventive pediatric care, including all recommended well-child visits and vaccinations, is covered at no cost under the ACA. Sick visits are covered with your plan's standard copay and deductible.
Frequently Asked Questions About Pediatric Care Providers in Denver
When should I choose a pediatrician?
Ideally during the third trimester, around 28 to 34 weeks. Many pediatric practices offer prenatal consultations where you can meet the doctor, ask questions, and get a feel for the practice. Having a pediatrician selected before birth means they can see your baby in the hospital.
How often does a newborn need to see a pediatrician?
Newborns typically have their first visit within 2 to 3 days of hospital discharge, then at 1 month, 2 months, 4 months, 6 months, 9 months, and 12 months. These well-child visits include growth tracking, developmental assessments, and vaccinations.
What is the difference between a pediatrician and a family doctor?
Pediatricians specialize exclusively in children's health from birth through adolescence, with extra training in childhood development, diseases, and behavior. Family medicine doctors treat patients of all ages. Both can provide excellent newborn and pediatric care.
