This week on Health Matters, Courtney Allison heads to NewYork-Presbyterian's Teddy Bear Clinic, where she asks kids what they want to know about their health. Then she sits down with Dr. Robert Hagerty, a pediatrician at Children’s Hospital of New York, to get answers.

Dr. Hagerty helps explains the risks and benefits of screen time, why it’s important to get a lot of sleep when you’re a kid, and how vaccines can help our bodies fight infections. He also addresses parents’ health concerns for their children and explains why the standard schedule for vaccines is the gold standard for care.
