Patient Education - Pediatrics

The Santa Cruz Women's Health Center serves the primary health care needs of women and children. We have handouts on hundreds of health topics so that you can be better informed about your health. We will soon have links on this page to some of our most popular patient education materials on Child Health.

For now, here is a complete list of all the Pediatric Patient Education Materials available. These are not links.

Please ask your health care provider at the Santa Cruz Women's Health Center for any of these during your next visit.
