A paediatrician is a medical doctor specialising in the care of children, with special training in the health and illnesses of infants, teens and young adults. He or she provides preventive care, medical care and offers advice to parents on concerns such as growth and development, safety, prevention, nutrition, and emotional wellness.
Ensuring vaccinations as per schedule is the best way to safeguard your child from potentially fatal diseases. Some of these vaccinations can also help in warding off diseases well into adulthood.
In the context of children's health, preventive care includes regular visits to a Paediatrician to evaluate the growth and development of the child, adhering to the immunization schedule and parents being actively involved in the child's health and well being.
