Pediatrician
A pediatrician is a physician that specializes in pediatrics - the branch of medicine that deals with the development, care, and diseases of children.
Because of the complexity of the body, some pediatricians also have a specialty interest (sub-specialty) and focus their practice on certain body systems such as the digestive system or cardiovascular system. Therefore, when you visit our sites for a pediatric cardiologist, look at the specialty areas of the office practice to make sure there is someone in the practice that specializes in the type of medical care you are seeking. If you find an pediatrician in your area that does not specialize in the type of medical care you are seeking, they will probably be happy to refer you to someone that can help you. You can start your search by calling them and asking who they recommend.
If you are looking for a physician, the following AMA site may help you find one: The American Medical Association.
In addition, check your local hospital or hospital Web site for a referral. You can find a listing of hospitals on our site in the hospital directory.
If you don't find the knowledge you are looking for right away, search until you do. Remember—Knowledge is Powerful Medicine!
