Adolescent medicine specialists serve individuals
between the ages of 12 and 22 who require care related to puberty,
development and behavior. From acne and hirsutism to sexually
transmitted diseases and menstrual disorders, our adolescent medicine
physicians are a resource for the general practitioner.
As a supplement to community physician primary care,
our specialists also can perform routine gynecologic care. Other
specialized services include body image problems, and evaluation
and management of eating disorders.
Our services also extend to children between the
ages of 8 and 11 who are prepubertal or peripubertal and may have
specific age-related issues. This section uses a multidisciplinary
approach, working with a team of psychologists, psychiatrists,
social workers, psychopharmacologists and dietitians as necessary.
