Adolescent health care works best when services are comprehensive, teen-friendly and tailored to meet the unique needs and concerns of this population. When care is delivered in this manner, more opportunities exist for the teen to develop a relationship with their provider and receive the appropriate services to maintain their health and well being. It also gives the clinician the opportunity to assess risk behaviors over time and provide the appropriate care and health education at each visit.
