Pediatrics

A pediatrician is a medical doctor who specializes in the health and medical care of infants, children, and adolescents. They diagnose and manage acute illnesses, chronic conditions, developmental concerns, and preventive health needs throughout childhood. Pediatricians perform routine checkups, administer vaccinations, monitor growth and development, and provide guidance on nutrition, behavior, and safety. Their work spans newborn care, urgent care, chronic disease management, and coordination with pediatric subspecialists to support healthy development from birth through young adulthood.
