Medexpress Teddy Bear Clinic

Discovery Center encourages you to “bear” in mind healthy habits this Spring season!

April 19 at 11:30 a.m. and 1 p.m.

The Fort Bend Children’s Discovery Center and MedExpress Urgent Care, a neighborhood medical center, invite Fort Bend families to bring stuffed furry friends for a “check-up” and learn more about what to expect when visiting a doctor’s office or urgent care.

The Discovery Center will host a “MedExpress Teddy Bear Clinic” to teach basic health care concepts to children in pre-school and kindergarten.

Children are invited to bring their own stuffed friends with them and participate in hands-on activities to learn about splinters, germs, sprains and scrapes.

MedExpress employees teach children what doctors, nurses and radiologists do, including mock X-rays and applying bandages to a teddy bear namedSniffle.

The MedExpress Teddy Bear Clinic is recommended for children ages 3 to 8.
