Pediatrics
Pediatrics is a branch of medicine that focuses on the health and well-being of children, from birth through adolescence. Pediatricians are medical doctors who specialize in the care of infants, children, and teenagers. They play a crucial role in ensuring the healthy growth and development of young individuals.
Here are some key points and information about pediatrics:
