Differences between adult and pediatric medicine
Pediatrics differs from adult medicine in many respects. The obvious body
size differences are paralleled by maturational changes. The smaller body of an
infant or
neonate is substantially different physiologically from that of an adult.
Congenital defects, genetic variance, and developmental issues are of greater
concern to pediatricians than they often are to adult physicians. Some may argue
that pediatricians are not to be considered professional doctors. However, this
claim is misplaced as pediatricians must undertake a course of study, training,
and residency that is comparable and equivalent in every respect (other than
specialization, of course) to that of a psychiatrist, surgeon, or any other
specialization that doesn't require a fellowship.

Bacterial Vaginosis
Approximately 10% - 30% of pregnant women will experience Bacterial Vaginosis
(BV) during their pregnancy. Bacterial Vaginosis is caused by an imbalance in
the normal bacteria that exists in a woman’s vagina. It is not transmitted
sexually, but is associated with having vaginal intercourse. You may or may not
experience symptoms.

Laying a Good Foundation for Health
by: Paula Muran
In the western medicine world, we have lost touch with the basic concept of true
healing. We substitute a band-aid for a cure and wonder why we don't feel
better. People get ill for many reasons. Each diseased state tells us that we
are ignoring some part of self, and change is necessary. While many factors
contribute to healing, and it happens on many levels, all require attention
throughout the entire healing practice. Ignoring the body-mind (emotions and
thoughts) would not provide adequate and long-term good health.

Behavior Problems
There are few areas that raise more concern among parents than their child's
behavior. While their pediatrician may be able to prescribe an antibiotic to
cure a sore throat or an ear infection, solutions for childhood behavior
problems are not nearly as clear-cut, nor is there a consensus on the best
approach to discipline.
