Children's health
is everything
True family medicine
Your child’s health is shaped not only by biology, but by the environment, emotions, routines, and relationships that surround them. As a true family doctor, Dr. Charles takes the time to understand your child and your family as a whole, offering thoughtful guidance through every stage of growth. His approach helps you feel informed, supported, and confident in the choices you make for your child’s wellbeing.
Life Stage Medicine
Children’s needs change quickly, and each developmental stage brings new questions, challenges, and opportunities for growth. Dr. Charles offers the kind of attentive, long-term care families relied on in the past—someone who knows your child, understands your family’s rhythms, and guides you through decisions with clarity and confidence. From infancy through adolescence, he provides comprehensive wellness support, monitoring growth, development, nutrition, sleep, immune health, and emotional wellbeing so your child can move through each stage feeling strong, supported, and thriving.
Chronic Symptoms and Complex Conditions
Many chronic symptoms in children—fatigue, digestive issues, recurring infections, skin conditions, joint pain, behavioral changes, metabolic shifts, and neuroinflammatory concerns like PANS/PANDAS—have deeper roots that are often overlooked. Dr. Charles works to uncover the underlying drivers, such as immune dysregulation, inflammatory triggers, toxic exposures, stealth infections, impaired detoxification, and mitochondrial challenges. With thoughtful evaluation and an individualized plan, he helps reduce symptoms, strengthen resilience, and support your child’s long-term wellbeing.
Mental and Emotional Wellbeing
Children and teens today face levels of stress, stimulation, and pressure that no generation before them has ever experienced. Emotional shifts, anxiety, attention challenges, irritability, and behavioral changes often have many contributing factors—nutrition, gut health, toxins, sleep and airway issues, stress and trauma, family dynamics, and even community or social environments. Dr. Charles approaches mental and emotional wellbeing with a wide lens and a compassionate heart, helping families understand what’s driving these patterns and what supports can make a meaningful difference. His holistic, steady guidance helps your child build emotional resilience and helps you feel informed, reassured, and supported as a parent.
