Viva Kids & Teens
Viva Kids & Teens provides primary care from birth through age 17 in Doral. Visits cover growth, common illnesses, school and sports physicals, and prevention.
About this program
Your provider reviews health history, sleep, nutrition, activity, and your questions. For fever, cough, earache, sore throat, rash, or stomach symptoms, the visit assesses likely causes and home care. Teen visits include private questions, healthy habits, and sports safety.
Vaccine needs are reviewed and recommended vaccines coordinated when due; confirm location and availability before the visit. Pediatric specialist visits, testing, and imaging are coordinated when needed. Your provider follows up on outside test results.
Asthma and allergy concerns stay within pediatric care, with specialist care coordinated when needed. The adult breathing program starts at age 18. Developmental, learning, and behavior evaluations are outside this program.
Request an appointment and bring vaccine records, prior results, and current medicines. Care is bilingual. A parent or legal guardian must accompany children under 18.

What ages does Viva Kids & Teens see?
The program serves children and teens from birth through age 17. Babies, school-age children, and teens each have visits suited to their age and stage. When a teen turns 18, care can continue in our adult primary-care program, so records and follow-up stay in one place. Your provider can help plan that move when the time comes.
How often does my child need a well visit?
Babies need several well visits in the first two years; most older children and teens need annual visits following pediatric guidance. Review growth, nutrition, sleep, safety, and indicated vaccines. Bring questions and prior records.
Can you complete school and sports physical forms?
Bring the form from the school, camp, or team to the visit. The provider reviews your child's history, including family heart history, checks height, weight, blood pressure, heart, lungs, and joints, and completes the form when the exam supports it. If something needs a closer look, such as fainting during exercise, more evaluation is coordinated first.
My child is sick. Should I book a visit or go to the emergency room?
A mild fever, cough, earache, sore throat, or rash in a child who is alert and drinking fluids can usually be seen at a clinic visit. Call 911 or go to the emergency room for a baby 3 months old or younger with a rectal temperature of 100.4°F (38°C) or higher, trouble breathing, a seizure, signs of dehydration, or a child who is very hard to wake.
Can my teen talk with the provider in private?
Teen visits can include private time with the provider and shared discussion with a parent or guardian. Discuss sleep, sports, nutrition, and body changes. Ask how privacy and information sharing apply to the visit.
Are vaccines given at the visit?
Your child's vaccine record is reviewed at every visit and compared with the CDC schedule. When a vaccine is due, your provider explains it and coordinates where it will be given. Contact the team before your visit to confirm the vaccination location and availability. Please bring your child's vaccine card or Florida immunization record to every visit.
What should I bring to the first visit?
Bring your child's insurance card, vaccine record, any prior health records or test results, and a list of current medicines and allergies. Add any school, camp, or sports forms and a short list of your questions. A parent or legal guardian should come with every child under 18 so the provider can review history and consent.
Urgent symptoms
- A baby 3 months old or younger with a rectal temperature of 100.4°F (38°C) or higher
- Trouble breathing, very fast breathing, or lips or face turning blue
- A seizure, or a child who is very hard to wake or does not respond
- Signs of dehydration, such as no urine in 8 hours, no tears, or a very dry mouth
- Swelling of the face, lips, or throat after a food, sting, medicine, or vaccine
- A stiff neck with fever, or a serious head injury
- A rash that does not fade when a clear glass is pressed on it, especially with fever. Do not wait for a rash if your child is seriously unwell.
- For any of these, call 911 or go to the nearest emergency room.
Call 911 for a life-threatening emergency.
Urgent guidance →When we refer
Children are not small adults, so care follows pediatric guidance instead of adult protocols. Children with complex, rare, or hard-to-control conditions are referred to the right pediatric specialist, and your provider helps coordinate the handoff. A concern found at a school or sports physical, such as fainting or chest pain during exercise, is evaluated further before clearance is given. Severe or scarring acne is referred to dermatology.
