Pediatric care encompasses a broad spectrum of health services ranging from preventive health care to the diagnosis and treatment of acute and chronic diseases. Pediatricians understand the many factors that affect the growth and development of children. They understand that children are not simply small adults. Children change rapidly and they must be approached with an appreciation for their stage of physical and mental development. IU Medical Group Pediatricians are faculty members at Riley Hospital for Children and can provide specialty services at Riley.
Pediatricians achieve their competency through training, experience, and continuing education.
