SUCCESSFUL PEDIATRICIAN

What if your baby's pediatrician was truly a hero? We scoured the country for the most innovative and inspiring doctors who spend long days pushing boundaries in the hopes of providing the highest possible care to our most precious resources. Allow us to introduce you to a few of the pediatricians who've touched (and simply stolen) our hearts.
The Fetal Spina Bifida Surgeon: N. Scott Adzick M.D., general pediatric and fetal surgeon, surgeon-in-chief of the Children's Hospital of Philadelphia and director of the Center for Fetal Diagnosis and Treatment
Finding out your baby has spina bifida is devastating not only because it carries lifelong health consequences for as many as 2,000 children diagnosed annually but because there are limited treatment options. Not so anymore. Thanks to the incredible work of Dr. Adzick, parents now have the opportunity to treat spina bifida in utero, giving their babies a much improved quality of life. Just a few years ago, spina bifida surgery was a radical idea, but after countless hours of collaboration and a successful research trial, Dr. Adzick brought the idea to reality. Dr. Adzick has also developed fetal surgical techniques to save babies with life-threatening birth defects.
The Breastfeeding Cheerleader: Nancy Brent M.D., pediatrician, lactation consultant and medical director of the Breastfeeding Center of Pittsburgh
The stress of caring for a newborn amid the throes of hormones and fatigue can make it hard to cope with breastfeeding problems. Dr. Brent, a mother of five, keenly understands the difficulty moms face when breastfeeding doesn't go smoothly. She formed a group of young pediatricians, armed them with expert breastfeeding knowledge and opened a practice designed to support nursing mothers. No matter which doc a mom sees regularly, she can set up an appointment with Dr. Brent's team for a breastfeeding consult. Research has shown that most docs don't feel they have time to address breastfeeding issues. Dr. Brent's nationally recognized approach brings hard-tofind lactation expertise directly to the moms who need it.
The Prenatal Pioneer: Ruben Quintero M.D., director of the Fetal Therapy Center at Jackson Memorial Hospital's Women's Hospital Center and the Division of Maternal-Fetal Medicine at the University of Miami Miller School of Medicine
A pioneer when it comes to fetal surgery, the list of "firsts" credited to Dr. Quintero is as extensive as his training. The Venezuelan-born doctor worked relentlessly to develop new techniques, including the use of endoscopy in utero to treat heart problems or organ obstructions, to help the most fragile and delicate of patients. Dr. Quintero didn't let the lack of surgical instruments suited to fetal surgery stop him. He developed his own. In addition to performing the first successful surgical removal of an undeveloped twin from a healthy fetus, Dr. Quintero recently removed a tumor from the mouth of a fetus who would otherwise not have made it to term inside her mother's womb.
The Access-for-All Advocate: Tumaini Rucker Coker M.D., pediatrician and assistant professor of pediatrics at the David Gefen School of Medicine at UCLA and Mattel Children's Hospital UCLA
Children who live in poverty are at risk of missing out on important preventative care, but Dr. Coker works tirelessly to come up with creative solutions to make sure these kids aren't neglected. Her goal is to find new ways to bring pediatric care to under-served patients. For her, that means making stops to see patients at daycare centers, grocery stores and even home visits to help as many children as possible get the medical attention, including well visits and vaccinations, they need. She is currently implementing these ideas through a five-year study from the National Institutes of Health with hopes of sharing successful strategies to doctors across the country.
The Behavior Specialist: Sherri Alderman M.D., board-certi?ed developmental behavioral pediatrician with the Artz Center for Developmental Health and medical director for the Oregon Pediatric Society Screening Tools and Referral Training program
How does one doctor manage to treat thousands of children with behavioral and developmental problems? By training 1,500 medical professionals in gold-standard screening techniques. As the medical director of a training program for pediatric screening in Oregon, Dr. Alderman helps identify issues like autism at an early stage. The sooner children are diagnosed and treated, the better the chances they will see improvement. Dr. Alderman expanded the program to screen for maternal depression, which can make a profound impact on a child's health and well-being - not to mention the mother's - if treated early. In just three years, trainees performed 4,112 well-child visits during which they administered nearly 3,000 screening tests.
The Kidney Doc: Patrick Brophy M.D., pediatric nephrologist and director of the division of pediatric nephrology, dialysis and transplantation with University of Iowa Children's Hospital
When a young Dr. Brophy was on rounds during his residency, he was shocked to learn the treatments offered to children suffering kidney diseases were the same as those used to treat adults. Unlike adults, kidney failure affects bone development in children, and special care is needed to ensure the youngsters develop properly. Dr. Brophy focused his fellowship on pediatric nephrology, developing techniques tailored to the smallest patients, including using adapted machines to provide dialysis for premature babies. Kidney patients often face a neverending cycle of treatment, medication and dialysis, and yet there is a distinct lack of dedicated facilities for children. Dr. Brophy's nephrology center is a lifeline for tiny kidney patients and their families.
The Vaccine Champion: Christopher Cunha M.D., pediatrician with Pediatric Associates in Crestview Hills, Kentucky
Do kids need vaccines? The answer, of course, is yes, but thanks to scare campaigns, confusing media reports and a growing sense of complacency about their value, it's no wonder parents may not know how to answer that question. But if the recent upswing in whooping cough is any indication, we not only need vaccines, we need the vigilance of doctors like Dr. Cunha to ensure that parents understand their vital importance. Dr. Cunha's stalwart support of vaccines through his speeches about vaccine myths and fears at community events in his area as well as by providing immunizations in under-served schools led the Centers for Disease Control to honor him with a Childhood Immunization Champion award. But Dr. Cunha's impact isn't limited to his practice in Kentucky; his patients participate in research studies to develop new vaccines to help children nationwide.

QUESTION/ARTICLE/ NEWS #1: WHY WON'T I FOLLOW MY DREAMS

# data[].attributes.attachment_link.readable_text
Fear. It's a powerful thing.

In some ways, fear is a good thing - it keeps us safe and prevents us from doing things that might harm us. It's fear that keeps us from venturing into dangerous places and from doing things we're not prepared for. A healthy dose of fear is a wonderful thing to have.

On the other hand, fear can prevent us from doing things that would be great for us - if we could only figure out a way to face and overcome those fears.

I've been thinking about fear a lot lately - about how it's affected my life and about what kinds of things I'm afraid of. I've heard so many people say, "You're so brave to ride a bike from Alaska to Argentina" and yet I don't think I am. I think I simply acknowledged my fears and went anyway.

Way back many years ago when my husband first brought up the idea of quitting our jobs and taking off on bicycles with our children, I thought he was nuts. I was convinced the man was stark, raving crazy for thinking we could ride bikes thousands of miles with children. I mean - that's not exactly what parents do!

But as time marched on and he kept talking about it, I realized that what was holding me back was fear. Fear of failure.

At the time, I had convinced myself there was no way I could ride a heavily loaded bike all day and keep all four of us fed and healthy and set up the tent every evening and take it down every morning. There was no way I could do all that and still be Mom to my precious sons.

You've been there, right? You know you can't do something so you don't even try? That's exactly where I was.

Then one day, I had my EUREKA moment. I realized that if I didn't try, I would fail for sure. If I loaded up my bike and took that first pedal stroke I figured I had a 50/50 chance of success, but not trying at all meant a 100% chance of failure. When I looked at it that way, it didn't make sense to not give it a go.

In my mind, I had convinced myself it was better to fail by not even trying than to face the humiliation and agony of defeat when we gave up down the road. I would rather deal with regrets later in life than the (very real) possibility that I wouldn't be able to do what I set out to do.

But by doing that, I didn't give myself the chance to experience the exhilaration of success.

Can someone tell me how that makes any sense?

A few days later we headed to the store to buy bikes and the rest, as they say, is history. We spent a whole year cycling around the USA and Mexico, then another three years cycling from Alaska to Argentina. Those four years I've spent on my bicycle with my family have been some of the best years of my life.

And they never would have happened if I hadn't faced my fear and climbed on that bike.

What fears do you have? What is it that's holding you back from living the life of your dreams?

I've come up with a list of what I consider to be the top fears preventing people from living their dream. Maybe by identifying what it is that's holding you back, you'll be more able to stare it down and live your dream anyway.

Fear of running out of money or not having enough time

It's the whole time versus money conundrum. If we have the time, we don't have the money. If we have the money, we don't have the time. If we take the time now, how will it affect the money in the future? Truth be told, this fear is nearly always just an excuse - a smokescreen, if you will - to hide the true reason. If you truly want to live your dream, you'll find a way to get the money and time.

Fear of reactions of others

Fear of the unknown

Fear of being inadequate or unprepared

Fear of future career implications

This one really belongs up above in the "unknown" category, but it's such a huge unknown I decided to put it on its own. Can I realistically take time away from my career and then go back? Will it work? What if it doesn't? It's scary not knowing how it'll turn out. Will pursuing my passion negatively affect some other aspect of my 'planned & structured' life? Will I have enough money for retirement? Will I miss out on a work related opportunity? What if? If you truly want to live your dream, then do it and deal with the consequences. Maybe you'll change to the point where you don't want to reenter your previous career path anyway? Once you know you CAN pursue your passion, you can do anything - even if it means heading down a different career path.

Fear of achieving your dream

Fear of failure

We all like to believe we could achieve our dream, and sometimes it's better to hold on to that belief rather than facing the possibility of learning otherwise. As long as it's just a dream it is still there and attainable - someday. If you do it and fail, or it's not at all what you thought it would be, you've lost the positive possibility. You'll never know if you can do it until you try.

Fear of not knowing how to make it happen

Many people have forgotten how to dream or weren't raised with people who encouraged it. My friend Jennifer Miller recently spent a couple months exploring the US with a dear friend of hers and their (combined) eleven kids. Her friend believed that "dreams" were nebulous things you pined for, but never really happened unless you were "lucky." In addition to needing to believe your dream can actually happen, you need to have the boots-on-the-ground knowledge of how to attack a dream, break it down into bite-sized chunks and make it real. That's hard stuff for a lot of people. Fortunately, there are people out there (like us!) who will happily help you make your dream a reality. It's easier than you might think.

Fear of how it will turn out and if it will be good for all involved

Fear of medical concerns

Fear of kids' schooling/socialization

Fear of just plain ol' not liking it

After the countless hours/days/weeks/months/years planning and preparing to live your dream, what if it's not everything you thought it would be? Trust me, it probably won't be. Living your dream won't be all rainbows, unicorns, and puppy dog tails. You'll go through some of the hardest times you've ever faced, but will also experience the best of the best. It's up to you to decide if it's worth it, but why not head out the door and find out rather than speculating?

Researchers have found that:

about 40% of the things we worry about never happen

30% are in the past and can't be helped

12% involve the affairs of others that are not even our business

10% percent relate to sickness, real or imagined.

That means only 8% percent of the things we worry about are even likely to happen!

Worry is just interest paid on trouble before it comes due. And in most cases it never comes due. When you worry, there's a 92% percent chance you're paying interest on a debt that's not even yours!

Fear. We can allow it to stop us from living life fully or we can choose to embrace it and live anyway. What's your choice?

About Nancy Sathre-Vogel

After 21 years as a classroom teacher, Nancy Sathre-Vogel finally woke up and realized that life was too short to spend it all with other people's kids. She and her husband quit their jobs and, together with their twin sons, climbed aboard bicycles to see the world. They enjoyed four years cycling as a family - three of them riding from Alaska to Argentina and one exploring the USA and Mexico. Now they are back in Idaho, putting down roots, enjoying life at home, and living a different type of adventure. It's a fairly sure bet that you'll find her either writing on her computer or creating fantastical pieces with the beads she's collected all over the world.

Send them your heart so they'll know that someone cares
And their lives will be stronger and free
As God has shown us by turning stone to bread
And so we all must lend a helping hand

We are the world,
We are the children
We are the ones who make a brighter day
So, let's start giving
There's a choice we're making
We're saving our own lives
It's true we'll make a better day
Just you and me

When you're down and out
There seems no hope at all
But if you just believe
There's no way we can fall
Well, well, well
Let's realize that a change can only come
When we stand together as one
