What is a typical day for a pediatrician?

Pediatricians are medical doctors who specialize in the care of children.

The responsibilities of a pediatrician include:

• Diagnosing and treating illnesses

• Treating injuries

• Treating developmental problems in infants, children, and adolescents

They may also provide preventive care or perform surgery on newborns with congenital disorders. Pediatricians must be able to communicate effectively with their patients' families as well as other health professionals.

Pediatricians are medical doctors who specialize in the care of children from birth to adolescence. They are responsible for the diagnosis, treatment, and prevention of diseases that affect children.

To become a pediatrician, you need to complete at least four years of undergraduate study in an accredited program, followed by four years of medical school. You will then be required to complete between three and five years of internship and residency training to become licensed.

Pediatricians are usually paid well. They can make between $97,000 and $200,000 annually.
