Overview
What you will study
The Primary Care Pediatrics course offered by Harvard University aims to present state-of-the-art information that pediatric providers can incorporate into their daily practices. Subject matter will be presented to the entire group in didactic lectures, panel discussions and brief management problems. These will be followed by question and answer periods. The practice of general pediatrics requires a large knowledge base covering many areas of practice. Keeping up to date is a challenge. Using the yearly course evaluations, we determine the topic areas most needed by clinicians.
