Pediatrics is not just medical care for children. It's medical care for children only! This means that your doctor completed every hour of her medical residency training (three years) learning how best to take care of small humans. When it comes to caring for children ages newborn to young adult, there is such a wide variety of developmental stages and differences in their bodies' physiology and responses to disease. Children benefit by receiving care from a professional who knows how to care for them exclusively. See the membership page for more information on what's included with a direct primary care membership with Spirit Pediatrics.
