My story about: Reflexes
DrMDK's story
March 15, 2008
There is nothing better in this world than having a happy, healthy child. Yet sometimes, taking care of a baby is a little overwhelming. There are so many questions: When should I start my baby on solid foods? Does my child have allergies? Why does my child get so many ear infections? .Of course your pediatrician can answer these types of questions, but if you'd like to do a little research on your own, our site not only has the answers, but they are spoken from the mouths of pediatric experts themselves.
DrMDK.com was started by Dr. Melvin Koplow. He asked his friends, noted pediatricians from around the NY area, to film videos on their areas of expertise. What resulted is a website with hundreds of videos on every medical subject you can imagine, including: allergy, asthma, autism, breastfeeding, hematology, growth, development and so much more.
You'll find many of the most respected doctors in NY on DrMDK.com. For example:
Â? You can see and hear Dr. Steven Shelov, Head of Pediatrics at Maimonides Medical Center, discuss ear infections, divorce, parenting, flu, antibiotics and more.
Â? Dr. Martin Fisher, Director of Adolescent Medicine at Schneider Children's Hospital, discusses adolescent issues and eating disorders .
Â? Dr. Warren Seigel, Director of Pediatrics at Coney Island Hospital, explores depression, drug abuse and weight problems
Â? Dr. Michael Marcus, a pediatric pulmonary specialist at Maimonides Medical Center, discusses asthma, allergy testing and the flu vaccine
Â? Dr. Oded Preis, a neonatal specialist, explains just about everything you need to know about newborns
Â? Dr. Jay Dolitsky, Pediatric ENT at the Manhattan Eye, Ear, Throat Hospital, discusses ear infections and nasal problems
Â? Dr. Henry Anhalt, Director of Pediatric Endocrinology and Diabetes at Saint Barnabas Medical Center, takes a look at childhood diabetes and weight problems
Â? Dr. Michael La Corte, Assistant Chief of Staff at Schneider Children's Hospital
