In the mind of children, the idea of summer elicits emotions of joy, leisure, and never-ending freedom. For millions of kids, these feelings are captured each year by summer camp. Whether it be day camp or overnight camp, the start of camp marks a whole new set of adventures, friendships, and valuable life lessons.
Due to insurance reasons, camps require its participants to receive a physical examination prior to the start of camp. For parents in the 21st century, life moves pretty quickly, so it may be easy for parents to forget to schedule their child’s appointment until the last minute. By late spring, pediatricians end up overbooked with appointments because their patients also need camp physicals. Therefore, it may be difficult for parents to find a convenient time to set up an appointment for their child.
