i fought so hard not to leave my pediatrician, until she legally COULD NOT keep me...at 19. And while it sucked to get a kidney infection in college, I was THRILLED to be in the pediatric ward. lol I had Jaguars on my wall. My favorite video so far!!😁

[@andromedatonks60]

I’m 25 and I saw my pediatric dentist this year! I think she’s generally willing to keep seeing patients in their early 20s who are in college/grad school until they settle down somewhere and find an adult dentist. But they finally gave me the paperwork to transfer this time… Sad day. I don’t think I’ll have much luck finding an adult dentist office where everything is fish themed like it was there. (It *was* a bit weird, at my most recent teeth cleaning, to realize that after having been going there since before I was in kindergarten, I was now probably the same age as many of the dental hygienists and some of the moms😆)

FINALLY! I keep telling everyone adults are terrible and pediatricians actually spend very very little time with crying yelling children. Usually when we have any problems with the patients, it's because of their parents, who are ADULTS! I always carry lollypops for kids and colleagues in my pockets. Very very accurate :))

One thing that I enjoy a lot about pediatrics is that I can unreservedly love my little patients and openly show that affection to great emotional fulfillment.

If I were to be a doctor, I'd definitely be a pediatrician omg. When I'm at a party, the ones I hang around with the most are children.

There was a show ( I think Good Girls?) where a character kept going to a pediatric psychologist instead of an adult one. It got me thinking that sometimes the pediatric approach can be just as or even more effective in getting adults to open up.

[@tabby_cat]

Well adults are just grown-up children, and they tend to get more stressed (or express it more aggressively) because they are aware of far more things that are giving them trouble. They are too used to getting defensive, so maybe a different approach helps to reassure them.

She did have one itty-bitty stumble - when she started her radiology rotation, she was all enthusiastic about it and told me she might want to specialize in radiology. I blurted out, "Oh, no, honey - you have social skills." At the end of the rotation, she said, "You were right - I got a lot of studying done, but I was stuck in the basement and barely saw anybody."
