What is important to us in pediatrics for you as a medical student:
- Be welcomed and feel included in a multi-professional team that cares about the health of children.
- Buddy system: Every medical student is assigned an assistant doctor as a buddy who will accompany you during your practical training and answer all your questions.
- Every single employee, whether doctor, nurse or therapist, acts as a role model when dealing with children and young people and should inspire you during your training.
- We encourage you to ask lots of questions.
- You will have the opportunity to see and examine children of all ages (from critically ill newborns/premature infants to adolescents).
Visual diagnoses in pediatric and adolescent medicine would be, for example:
