My daughter has decided she is no longer going to the pediatrician. I guess the fact they deal with infants, children, and teens makes her feel that she's outgrown them.
That is amazing. They pay well, and it is such a great profession to have because she can help young people and their health.
I think it's an interesting profession because they can work in hospitals but can also specialize in things like neonatology or just be a primary care physician.
What is neonatology? I've never heard of that
Neonatology would be the specialty where the doctors work on newborns, mostly those that are ill.
Oh that makes sense. Like neonatal care. That would be a really tough job!
Yes, I think so as well. They would spend a lot of time in the NICU with nurses and other doctors but then not all the babies would make it.
That would be one of the hardest jobs to do ever. Does your daughter plan on working with babies specifically?
No, I don't think so.  Specializing in the care of ill or premature infants that may or may not survive would be too much for her I think.
