Tomorrow I will see my brother walk across the stage and receive his Ph.D. in Political Economy and Public Policy...and I couldn't be prouder. Not only will it serve as the culmination of nearly 7 years of hard work, but it will truly represent a lifetime achievement of which there have been many ups and downs. And I will be honored to be able to watch his...

Two very interesting events occurred in the past couple of weeks. Both of which produced a good deal of interest, probably one more so than the other…and although not directly related (as I will explain below) both deeply intertwined by a theme that has become a major undertone in the pediatric population today…vaccines and autism.
Over the course of my career, I have seen the primar...1 Recommendation6 Comments -

My days are quite busy around these times...flu/RSV/stomach ailments seem to be increasing exponentially...but there is something that always helps me get through these long winter days. A couple of days a week, I have the opportunity of meeting couples who are about to enter the world of parenthood. Some come to me with questions in hand trying to determine if I might be th...1 Recommendation6 Comments -

Hi everyone,
I just had one of those times last night that I wish I could bottle up and reopen whenever I feel the need...something I guess I might want to retreat to in about 10 years from now. But let me explain...for those who are unaware, I have 3 children, with my oldest nearing 7 years of age and getting closer to that dredded second decade of life. You see, I'...1 Recommendation19 Comments -

Tax deductions...hmm, probably not what you think your friendly pediatrician might write about, but I read a very interesting article in the Business section of the Los Angeles Times today that I fell compelled to share with others here at DS.
I've posted a link to the article below but the take home point is that there exist many deductible medical expenses for those with certain ai...1 Recommendation2 Comments -

I thought it might be a good idea to clarify the recent concern of botulinum toxin and a possible association to children's deaths and severe side effects. As some are probably aware, botulinum toxin works by blocking nerve impulses to muscles, which causes them to relax. A few years back in 2002, the U.S Food and Drug Administration (FDA) approved the use of Botox (bran...1 Recommendation1 Comment -

What the researchers found was with the increase of baby lotions, shampoos, and other infant skin care products, there has been an increase in the concentration of phthalates, which are often found in the products with the fragrances ("nice smells&...1 Recommendation8 Comments -

A study funded by the National Institute of Mental Health and just published in the American Journal of Human Genetics has found a gene variation that may raise the risk of developing autism, particularly when this gene variant is inherited from an individual's mother. What this implies is that a child may be more vulnerable to developing autism when this variant exists and is pass...2 Recommendations10 Comments
