Start your online pediatrics course
with Dr. Brian Alverson, MD from Brown University
Children always are deserving of special attention and care. Managing the health of patients in their early stages of life can have significant impact on their future lives and long-term wellbeing. With children’s physiology constantly changing as they grow, their unique care needs that differ from adults’, and the large variety of conditions, pediatrics is a vast and challenging field to enter.
This course covers the main pathologies that affect every organ system in the pediatric population. Dr. Brian Alverson, MD, from Brown University, will discuss introductory information on adolescent medicine, neonatology, child development, pediatric oncology, and genetics. He will teach you to assess growth and developmental milestones, highlight the differences in child and adult care, and pay special attention to watching out for and identifying signs of abuse.
The combination of Video Lessons with interactive quiz questions, downloadable study materials, and a USMLE-style Qbank makes it easy to understand and retain the topics. By the end of this course, you will have a comprehensive overview of the diagnosis and management of pediatric conditions and be prepared to care for your youngest future patients.
