Glossary of Terms

Neonatologist
A pediatrician who has received 4-6 years of training after medical school in preparation for treating sick newborns. This is the person who usually directs your baby's care if hospitalization in an NICU is required.
This is Children's Glossary of Medical Terms - and much more. You'll find the basic definitions and, for many medical subjects, a larger medical context written by an experienced Children's pediatrician. All the definitions are in an easy-to-print format.
