Did You Know?
A pediatrician is a doctor who specializes in treating children from infancy through adolescence! The word "pediatrician" comes from Greek words meaning "child healer." Pediatricians need "patience" to work with children, while their "patients" are little kids - a perfect double meaning! The first pediatrics hospital was founded in Paris in 1802.
