#275 | How to Interview Your Pediatrician with Dr. Joel Gator Warsh
Description
Dr. Joel Gator Warsh is a classically trained integrative pediatrician with a holistic health practice in California. His approach to care puts parents at the center of the decision-making process. In today's episode, we discuss the key questions parents should ask when interviewing a pediatrician (and yes, you should interview numerous pediatricians before choosing the best fit for your family), including:
- How to talk about the vaccine schedule;
- The benefits and risks of Vitamin K;
- Does where you give birth affect how your pediatrician views you, and, if applicable, will they support your having a home birth;
- What are the most common reasons a pediatrician would release a family from their care;
- How important are growth curves; and
- Are there alternatives to antibiotics for an ear infection?
Dr. Joel delves into these questions and helps us understand the most effective relationship dynamics between a family and their pediatrician for a child-centered, holistic healthcare experience. Keep an eye out for Joel's new book: Parenting at Your Child's Pace: The Integrative Pediatrician's Guide to the First Three Years.
