When is it okay to question your pediatrician?
Empowered Patient is a regular feature on CNN. The topic on March 13th was about when it’s okay to question your pediatricians advice. I suggest checking out the article in it’s entirety at CNN Health. I know for me personally when I talk with my pediatrician about certain issues the response I am getting has more to do with the doctor’s personal opinion and less to do with medical facts. But that is to be expected when addressing such issues as toilet training, picky eaters or other similar issues. As for the medical side of things I know that I am not as knowledgeable as my pediatrician so in regards to medical topics I do take his input as expert advice.
What’s your thoughts on this topic?
