| PHYSICIANS
All
physicians in this group are Board certified. After
medical school each physician had at least three years of
intensive, post graduate medical training solely in the
health needs of infants, children and adolescents and has
successfully passed a difficult, nationally certified exam
in pediatrics.
Members
of our physician group have received medical training from
different institutions, the blend of which complements the
care of each patient. Our physicians meet regularly
to discuss diagnoses and treatments, providing patients
with not only second opinions but third, fourth and fifth
opinions.
ARNP-NURSE
PRACTITIONERS
We
are proud to be associated with two nurse practitioners
who make a significant contribution to our practice.
A nurse practitioner is an individual who has achieved a
four year Bachelor of Science in nursing and has then gone
on to obtain additional training leading to either a
Master's Degree in nursing or a national certification as
a nurse practitioner. Such individuals have received
education and training qualifying them to perform complete
physical examinations, obtain medical histories, make
diagnoses and prescribe treatment. Our nurse
practitioners are particularly skilled in teaching health
maintenance and illness prevention.
