Pediatric Consultations ages Birth to 25
Raising children well is more challenging now than 20 years ago.
Children are more commonly struggling with autism, ADHD, POTS, chronic fatigue, anxiety, depression, obesity and cancer, just to name a few.
How does that get handled in a 20 minute well-child visit?
It doesn't.
Children need adults who recognize that their problems are complicated a deserve a plan that takes advantage of their resiliency.
A Pediatric Consult is an opportunity to discuss and improve upon your strategies for your child or teen's specific challenges. Creating "buy-in", framing change positively, implementing healthier lifestyles are as important as medication management.
I salute you if you have a great plan or if your primary care pediatrician is available to help. If not, consider a consult.
Resilient, yes.
Super Powers, no.
