Welcome to Pediatrics!

The Mission of the Edward Via College of Osteopathic Medicine is to provide medical education and research that prepares globally minded, community-focused physicians and to improve the health of those most in need.

Pediatrics is the medical specialty focused on the health and care of children from infancy to adolescence. Pediatrics embraces preventive health including careful observation of the growth and development of a child, anticipatory guidance about safety specific to each age, and acute and chronic care for neonates, infants, children and adolescents in all areas of medical specialties. Pediatricians are passionate advocates for their patients and are intimately involved in the care of the entire family by facilitating and coordinating services for the child.  Pediatricians are a diverse group of physicians working in a variety of practice settings, medical subspecialties and geographical regions.

The Department of Pediatrics wishes to provide an exciting unique experience for the clinical student while developing competent and compassionate student physicians capable of caring for this extraordinary group of patients. This website will highlight the third year rotation sites in Pediatrics and provide informative links to assist with learning more about the specialty of pediatrics.
