Parental Resources

At San Juan Pediatrics, we listen and care about your concern. Our parent resources section is devoted to addressing, educating, and informing parents about some of the common issues and topics that I often asked about as a pediatrician.

Great resource done by the AAP in which you can look up illnesses based on symptom or body part, and get a complete explanation of possible causes, things to try at home, and signs that you should come see your doctor.
