Beliefs and Values

In terms of believing, pediatricians have the drive to help children. People go through the long years of education to become pediatricians because they are focused and determined to help every child remain healthy or get better when they become sick. In addition, pediatricians go into this profession with the intention of contributing to the improvement of the medical field in regard to efficient diagnoses and treatments. Furthermore, every pediatrician has the goal of not only curing the sick, but also caring for the patients that cannot be cured, as well as preventing disease.

In terms of valuing, even though there are no uniform laws about patient privacy, a pediatrician values protecting confidentiality of medical records because it is an important aspect of the patient-doctor relationship. Also, a pediatrician greatly values the atmosphere in which he works. For example, since there are kids always coming in and out of the office, a good pediatrician values that every employee has a smile on their face and is kid friendly so that the children have a good experience and feel comfortable. Furthermore, due to his goal to improve the medical field, a pediatrician values accurate diagnoses of the patients as well as accurate medical records.
