见到妈妈医生

克里斯汀布鲁诺,医学博士

孩子就是好玩!这就是我成为儿科医生的原因。好吧,我喜欢看到人们成功。帮助父母或孩子克服疾病、行为问题甚至母乳喂养障碍等困难是非常值得的。我想要一个领域,在这个领域里,我可以与家人产生重大而持久的影响,在工作中获得乐趣,有时间陪伴自己的家人——作为一名儿科医生,我发现了这一点。我自己也是两个孩子的母亲;苏菲和杰克分别是5岁和8岁,当医生最难的就是要远离他们。我最近离了婚,正在克服许多父母在重新定义家庭时所面临的障碍。当我不工作的时候,我会充分利用和孩子在一起的每一分钟,并建议我的病人的父母也这样做。我还提醒他们——还有我自己:养育一个孩子需要一个村庄。 Lean on your friends, family and pediatrician! Not a one of us is alone, and chances are good another mom or dad has asked the same question you are struggling with.
