True or not, the article overreaches by speculating that children that make fewer well-child visits do worse than those who make more visits. All that is lacking is the evidence.
Too true.
Where is the evidence that children need so many well-child visits to be healthy?
How many problems are caught at well-child visits, and how many b/c the parent suspects something is wrong and brings the child in for that reason?
