Letter To The Editor

Dr Simon has captured the essence of pediatrics. The personal satisfaction that comes from the care of children and their families makes pediatrics unique among medical specialties. Dr Simon is correct in stating that we should all be capable of promoting pediatrics as a career choice for medical students. Often the pediatric resident is in the best position to influence that choice. Students in the third year clinical clerkship consider members of the house staff as their mentors.
