Description: Send us a textDr. Joel Gator Warsh is a classically trained integrative pediatrician with a holistic health practice in California. His approach to care puts parents at the center of the decision-making process. In today's episode, we discuss the key questions parents should ask when interviewing a pediatrician (and yes, you should interview numerous pediatricians before choosing the best fit for your family), including: How to talk about the vaccine schedule; The benefits and risks of Vitamin K; Does where you give birth affect how your pediatrician views you, and, if applicable, will they support your having a home birth;What are the most common reasons a pediatrician would release a family from their care; How important are growth curves; andAre there alternatives to antibiotics for an ear infection?  Dr. Joel delves into these questions and helps us understand the most effective relationship dynamics between a family and their pediatrician for a child-centered, holistic healthcare experience.
