Questions about adolescent health

One of the doctors who participates with the medical home program has agreed to answer your questions and adolescence. Dr. Pletcher is an expert in caring for teens with special health care needs. If you have some questions about your teen, please submit them. Puberty, sexuality, transition to college or assisted living, emotional health... everything is open for discussion. I can't guarantee that Dr. Pletcher will be able to respond to all of the questions, but we'll do our best. Thanks to Dr. P for doing this!
