Dr. Barbara Staggers knew Angelique (age 18) before she entered adolescence and will see her grow out of it. Angelique first came to Children's in 1993, and Dr. Staggers has helped her weather the challenges of being an urban teenager. Together, they made sure that Angelique's health—in the broadest sense, beyond the physical—was maintained and supported.
Adolescent Medicine/Teen Clinic
The Adolescent Medicine/Teen Clinic at Children’s Hospital & Research Center Oakland provides comprehensive medical, psychosocial and psychobiological services for kids ages 11-19. The clinic also treats females under age 11 who have reached physical maturity.
Children’s Hospital has an adolescent medicine clinic near our hospital and two school-based clinics in Oakland high schools. All three serve as national models for adolescent healthcare. Our specially trained team looks at all aspects of an adolescent’s life to help address the many medical and mental health issues that they face. Students who are tired, sick, stressed, depressed, or struggle with health issues have the most difficulty succeeding in school. Our interdisciplinary team of experts help students get back on track, offering a wide range of services dealing with issues such as asthma, obesity, mental health, gynecological care, sexually transmitted diseases, family planning, sports examinations, and physical and sexual assault.
