Caring for children is one of our most important roles. At ParkwayHealth we offer parents the choice of pediatricians or family doctors; both are trained to provide loving care to your child. Our physicians' page has information about our physicians, their training, and background to help you choose someone you feel comfortable with.
Pediatricians specialize in caring for children, while family doctors specialize in the care of the whole family, from infancy to old age. Both types of doctors are trained to consider not just the physical health of their patients, but their mental, emotional, and social health as well.
Our physicians believe that parents and physicians should partner together on children's health. Your child's physician will provide preventive care (including childhood vaccinations) as well as diagnose and treat illnesses. He or she can also advise you on the proper growth and development of your child, offer advice on diet and other ways to keep your child healthy, and answer any questions you have about your child's health and well-being. |
