What Do You See a Pediatrician for?
A pediatrician is a medical doctor who has received additional education and training in the care and treatment of children under 18.
Pediatricians are typically a child's first doctor and remain their primary care physician through their childhood and adolescence, up until they turn 18.
Their extensive knowledge and experience in childhood health and wellbeing make them an excellent resource for preventative and holistic healthcare for children, starting when the child is a newborn.
Children should see their pediatrician regularly throughout their lives, with the visit frequency varying depending on their age, medical history, family history, and overall health. The pediatrician will want to check on their young patient's growth and development, physically, mentally, emotionally, and socially to ensure they are meeting the standard benchmarks. This will allow them to detect or flag possible signs of any issues that could be cause for concern.
Early detection is important in the treatment and management of many medical conditions and can help slow down or stop their progression.
