Pieces Dr. Yucel has written for parents, and the places to go for reliable pediatric information between visits.
Written by Dr. Yucel
Why some parents look for a pediatrician who combines modern medicine with preventive and natural approaches, and why Dr. Yucel avoids prescribing antibiotics for infections that antibiotics cannot treat.
Covers antibiotic overuse for upper respiratory infections, the difference between bacterial and viral illness, side effects, antibiotic resistance, and what to look for when choosing a pediatrician.
The difference between french fries and a baked sweet potato, or between a processed breakfast cereal and steel-cut oats with berries and nuts. All of them are carbohydrates.
Dr. Yucel's answer to whether carbohydrates are good or bad is that they are both, and the question is which ones.
The practice's position on vaccination, in full.
Now kept up to date on the dedicated vaccinations page.
Green juices and smoothies are a way to get children who are otherwise picky to try something new, and not only in March.
Includes juicing suggestions for families.
