"How do you track the growth of my child?""What growth percentile should my child be in at the age of 5?" "What factors influence how my my child will grow?""When should my child be starting puberty?"
I get questions like these all day everyday from the concerned parents of the children that I see in clinic, so for this episode, I figured it would be a good time to sit down and go over the answers to some of the most common questions that I receive.
Growth is a really interesting but nuanced topic, because there are so many different factors that have an impact on your child's growth. Plus, there are different things to be considering at different ages, so it can feel like there's a lot to track. But after listening to this episode, I hope you'll have a better idea of how myself and other pediatricians think about tracking and aiding your child's growth.

She serves patients from newborns to the elderly, focusing on both the physical and mental well-being of each family member with a trauma-informed and weight-inclusive approach to care.
Both Dr. Berens and I see patients who are being treated for pre-diabetes, diabetes, PCOS, and other diagnoses that are heavily influenced by diet, so in this episode we address the role that healthy eating plays in the lives of teens. We discuss some of the biggest challenges that teens face when it comes to healthy eating, such as eating disorders and offer some ways in which parents can help their children build the foundation for a healthy life.

As a pediatric endocrinologist, I get a lot of questions about painful periods from my patients. So for this episode, I sat down with Dr. Jessica Ritch, a minimally invasive gynecologist, to talk about this topic and answer some of the more common questions that I get.
We debunk some of the myths surrounding period pain, talk about what women should and shouldn't expect, and offer some options and advice when it comes to treating the pain. Period pain should never stop someone from being able to live a normal life, and I hope that what we talk about in this episode can help to provide some clarity and ideas to those who are experiencing this.
Dr. Ritch is one of only a few gynecologists in South Florida who have completed fellowship training in minimally invasive gynecology and she works to help treat patients and get them back to their lives faster through robotic surgery, advanced laparoscopy, hysteroscopy and vaginal procedures, as well as, non-surgical treatment options. She specializes in the management of benign gynecologic conditions such as fibroids, polyps, abnormal uterine bleeding, endometriosis, pelvic pain, ovarian masses, and cervical dysplasia.

One of the best things we can do to help our kids as they develop is to get them the sleep they need, so be sure to listen to this episode to the end.
