Dr. Erick Félix, pediatric surgeon, highlights the importance of pediatric surgery in child well-being. According to Dr. Félix, pediatric surgery is a completely different universe from adult surgery, as children have a unique physiology and an anatomy in constant growth and development.
Dr. Feliz explains that pediatric surgery addresses a wide range of conditions, from emergencies like appendicitis to congenital malformations that require timely and specialized surgical intervention. The work of the pediatric surgeon does not end when the child leaves the operating room, as postoperative care and follow-up are essential to ensure a quick and safe recovery.
Dr. Feliz emphasizes the importance of creating a clear and caring communication environment to contain the fears of both the child and their parents. In the Dominican Republic, it is necessary to strengthen this specialty and raise awareness of its importance in comprehensive medical care.
