After over 36 years of general pediatrics, Dr Paul Smolen knows what parents want to know. Stimulating and empowering parents with interesting conversations about a wide variety of pediatric topics is the goal of the DocSmo podcast. Parents can expand the conversations started in their own pediatric offices, at home or on the fly, with these portable, practical, pedcasts. By listening together both Mom and Dad can discuss their mutual approaches to important parenting topics. Each pedcast is researched carefully for accuracy, peer reviewed, and linked to handy references for those parents that want more. Many casts include a trip down “Science Drive” where important basic science concepts are discussed, interviews with experts in pediatrics bring parents new insights into the latest in pediatrics, and fresh opinions and perspectives from Dr Smolen’s reading, and of course the famous DocSmo Pearls of wisdom for parents to remember.
