Pediatrics

Pediatric primary health care encompasses health supervision and anticipatory guidance. This includes:
  • monitoring physical and psychosocial growth and development
  • age appropriate screening
  • diagnosis and treatment of acute and chronic disorders
  • management of serious and sometimes life threatening illness and when appropriate referral of more complex conditions to sub-specialists
  • provision of first contact care and coordinated management of health problems requiring multiple professional services.
How Do Pediatricians Deliver Primary Health Care for Children?
Pediatric primary healthcare for children and adolescents is family oriented and incorporates community resources and strengths, needs and risk factors, and sociocultural sensitivities into strategies for care delivery and clinical practice. Pediatric primary health care is best delivered within the context of a `medical home' where comprehensive, continuously accessible and cost efficient care is available and delivered or supervised by qualified healthcare specialists.

Pediatricians Provide Excellent Children's Health Care
Pediatricians deliver excellent healthcare to children because of their training which includes 4 years of medical school education plus an additional four more years of intensive training devoted solely and with total professional commitment to all aspects of medical care for children and adolescents.
