 Selecting a Pediatrician
Your pediatrician will become much more than a person who cares for your child when he or she is sick.
Be assured that pediatricians are accustomed to answering lots of questionsÑand most delight in sharing their knowledge and experience to help children start healthy lives.
Most parents and children develop close and lasting relationships with their pediatrician.If you take care to select a pediatrician who matches your personality and needs, working together to keep your child healthy will prove to be an enjoyable experience.

 Choosing a Pediatrician - Lucile Packard Children's Hospital
Many pediatricians work together in a group practice with other pediatricians and pediatric nurse practitioners, who are nurses with additional training in pediatric care.
A pediatrician, family practice physician, or pediatric nurse practitioner can be your baby's primary care provider.
Pediatricians care for children from newborn to adulthood, providing well baby and child care, including immunizations.

 Preschoolers Today — 20 Questions What to Ask Your Pediatrician
If it seems like your pediatrician is playing “20 questions” or is on a fact-finding mission, that is because she is. The answers to these questions, and others, will help your pediatrician figure out what is wrong with your child and what the appropriate treatments will be.
In addition to answering your pediatrician’s questions, you should ask your own so that you have a good idea of what is wrong with your child, how you are supposed to treat her and when she should get better.
Knowing that your pediatrician was thinking about these other conditions can help make you feel better if you were thinking that your child really had a brain tumor or meningitis.

 Baby and Toddler Articles: Selecting Your Baby's Pediatrician
A pediatrician should have graduated from an accredited medical school, and completed an additional three years of training in a pediatric residency.
If you are unhappy with any aspect of the treatment you and your child are receiving, talk to the pediatrician directly about the problem.
Routinely, pediatricians examine newborns and talk with parents before the babies are discharged from the hospital.

 Pediatrics and Choosing a Pediatrician
A pediatrician is a medical doctor who has gone to school for four extra years (residency) after medical school to study and to practice in the field of pediatrics.
PEDIATRICIAN DR. PAUL Answers: Technically, pediatrics means "doctor of children".
This will help you determine whether or not you are comfortable with the pediatrician, and, very importantly with his/her office and practice setup.
http://www.drpaul.com/library/PEDIATRICS.html

  
 How to Choose a Pediatrician -
Residency training prepares pediatricians to help meet the needs of healthy children in such areas as normal growth, development, nutrition and behavior.
Pediatricians have the most comprehensive medical training to respond to these needs.
Explore the doctor's attitudes about things that are important to you: If you use complementary or alternative health methods, or traditional health practices, ask about the pediatrician's knowledge and acceptance of these.

 Dynamic Chiropractic: Helping parents find a pediatrician
This generation of parents also understands that its children may require care by other health professionals, should there be a time for diagnostics or treatment of a disorder that is unresponsive to chiropractic care; or a case that is outside our scope of practice.
First, realize that your expectation to find a wellness-minded pediatrician in your community may not happen; you have to find the best you can, and communicate to parents the upside and downside of using the pediatrician you are referring.
Inform the doctor that you are looking for a pediatrician who takes a less invasive approach for children, since the parent of the child you will be referring is interested in this style of health care.

 Picking the perfect pediatrician - Health - MSNBC.com
You will want a pediatrician who is comfortable dealing with the confidential concerns of your child, and who can counsel your child effectively and nonjudgmentally.
Finding that right pediatrician for your family involves not only finding someone who is competent to provide health care for your child, but also someone whose temperament and philosophy mirrors your own.
Others seek a pediatrician whose style is more “prescriptive,” offering the equivalent of a medicine prescription for everything from toilet training to deciding about school readiness and counseling teenagers about risk-taking behaviors.

 Working with Your Pediatrician: Steven Parker, MD
Some prefer a pediatrician who has a very strict view of discipline while other parents are more comfortable with a more lenient view.
Parker: Pediatricians are trained to recognize almost any problem that might arise in a child.
The pediatrician will do a careful physical examination to ensure the baby is healthy.

 Virtual Children's Hospital: CQQA: Why Should You Become A Pediatrician?
Pediatricians do research to learn more about treating diseases and improving our communities.
A pediatrician is a doctor who takes care of children from birth to age 21.
Pediatricians work in private practice offices, hospital, public health clinics, schools and many other places.
http://www.vh.org/pediatric/patient/pediatrics/cqqa/pediatrician.html

  
 Finding a Doctor for Your Child
Some pediatricians have additional training in a subspecialty area such as cardiology, critical care or emergency medicine, or hematology.
This means pediatricians keep up-to-date on changes in children's health care.
When it comes to medical care for your child, there are generally three types of qualified providers: pediatricians, family physicians, and pediatric nurse practitioners.
http://kidshealth.org/parent/system/doctor/find_ped.html

  
 Rate Your Pediatrician
Because pediatricians are generalists, they aren't always the right physicians to handle problems like food allergies or skin disorders.
You might be the one who answers the questions for your shy toddler, but a really good pediatrician will never forget that the concerns and comfort of his patient -- your child -- come first.
One thing you definitely don't want in a pediatrician is an ego.
http://www.parents.com/articles/health/5573.jsp?page=2

  
 Gale Encyclopedia of Childhood and Adolescence: Pediatrician
Because new parents will rely on their pediatrician for support and advice as well as medical care, it is important that they feel comfortable with the personality and style of the pediatrician they choose.
Pediatricians receive extensive training that begins with four years of medical school.

 Choosing a Pediatrician
Immunizations: Most pediatricians are very aware of the need for immunizations, but asking about their immunization rates would not be improper.
However, with some introspective thought about what you would like in a pediatrician and some checking around with friends, family, etc., you can usually decide on a pediatrician who is also a provider on your insurance plan.
I hope your child will not get very many illnesses, but when he does, sometimes a doctor's office close-by can be one of the most important aspects of the practice.

 HOW TO PICK THE RIGHT PEDIATRICIAN
From my own experience as a pediatrician and a parent, I confess that being a parent involved in caring for my own children's day-to-day needs, is as important (if not MORE important) in making me a good pediatrician as my residency training and practice experience.
This prepares the general pediatrician to care for almost all aspects of health relating to infants and children.
Most learn their skills at larger medical centers, which see the sickest, most challenging patients.
http://www.yourpediatrician.com/how_to_choose.htm

  
 Finding a pediatrician with requirements
You and your pediatrician should agree on issues such as discipline, nutrition, and prevention medicine.
Consider choosing someone who is sensitive to the concerns you may have about your child.
You should be interested in the number of years that they have been practicing.

 Choosing a Pediatrician
While every pediatrician is dedicated to helping new parents to raise healthy children, many pediatricians have different approaches and styles.  This brochure is a guide to help you find the pediatrician that best meets your family's needs and preferences.
There are several options available when choosing a doctor for your baby.

 BABYWEARING
During my thirty years as a pediatrician, parents in our practice would often say, "As long as I carry my baby she's content." After years of watching a whole parade of babywearers we dubbed these thriving infants "sling babies."
I would like to introduce you to a style of parenting which will bring out the best in your baby and yourself.
Many kids ago we noticed that the more we carried our babies the less they cried.

 Physicians and surgeons
Like most physicians, pediatricians work with different healthcare workers, such as nurses and other physicians, to assess and treat children with various ailments, such as muscular dystrophy.
Providing care from birth to early adulthood, pediatricians are concerned with the health of infants, children, and teenagers.
Most of the work of pediatricians, however, involves treating day-to-day illnesses that are common to children—minor injuries, infectious diseases, and immunizations—much as a general practitioner treats adults.

They prepare and review case histories and clinical records of infants and children, examine patients, determine the need for x-ray examinations and clinical laboratory tests, then interpret examination findings and test results before prescribing pediatric treatment.
They may work in managed care, private practice or academic medicine.

 Selecting A Pediatrician
If your child is ill, be ready with important information such as child's exact age, when symptoms began and note any temperature or behavior changes, etc. Have your pharmacy phone number available in case your pediatrician has to call in a prescription.
Always keep up-to-date health records of your child, including immunizations and drug allergies, as well as any special treatments.
Although selecting the right pediatrician is a very personal decision for parents, I suggest following the simple guidelines below helping you select a physician and make the best use of his or her medical services.

Large groups may be able to provide a broader range of office hours, but you may have to give up the personalized care that comes with a smaller group if you see a different doctor every visit.
See what his responses to certain scenarios involving difficulty nursing would be.

 Pediatrics - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
In a sense, pediatricians often have to treat the parents (and sometimes, the family), not just the child.
One of the major challenges facing pediatricians is that the range of body sizes (and weights) that they face in pediatrics is much greater than in adult medicine.
Most pediatricians are members of a national body, such as the American Academy of Pediatrics, the Canadian Paediatric Society, the British Association of Paediatric Surgeons, the Royal College Of Paediatrics and Child Health or the Indian Academy of Pediatrics.
