Kristen Prescott"},"content":{"rendered":"<div class=\"container\">\n<div class=\"grid\">\n<div class=\"col-sm-12 maincopy blogCore\">\n<p>La Dra. Prescott se licenci\u00f3 Magna Cum Laude en Antropolog\u00eda por la Universidad de Boston.  A continuaci\u00f3n, asisti\u00f3 a la Facultad de Medicina de la Universidad Tufts, donde obtuvo el t\u00edtulo de Doctora en Medicina.  La Dra. Prescott complet\u00f3 su residencia pedi\u00e1trica en el Hospital Infantil INOVA Fairfax de la Universidad de Virginia.  Sus intereses cl\u00ednicos incluyen la pediatr\u00eda general y la medicina de la lactancia materna.<\/p>\n<p>Los padres de la Dra. Prescott le dijeron que a la edad de 5 a\u00f1os, ella estaba hablando de querer convertirse en un m\u00e9dico de beb\u00e9, \u00a1y ese sue\u00f1o nunca ha cambiado! Le encanta ver a sus pacientes cuando est\u00e1n bien y cuando est\u00e1n enfermos, y se esfuerza por conocer a sus pacientes y sus familias en todos los aspectos de su atenci\u00f3n m\u00e9dica.<\/p>\n<div>Le encanta la continuidad asistencial que supone la pediatr\u00eda.  La pediatr\u00eda le permite proporcionar una atenci\u00f3n excepcional a un beb\u00e9 despu\u00e9s del nacimiento, continuando hasta la adolescencia. La filosof\u00eda de la Dra. Prescott de la atenci\u00f3n se centra en torno a una relaci\u00f3n de colaboraci\u00f3n entre el paciente, la familia y el m\u00e9dico. Cuando no est\u00e1 en el trabajo, la Dra. Prescott disfruta pasar tiempo con su familia y hacer actividades al aire libre como senderismo, kayak y carreras de larga distancia.<\/div>\n<div><\/div>\n<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>","protected":false},"featured_media":288001,"template":"","specialty":[115],"language":[],"keywords":[],"address":[114],"class_list":["post-277960","doctors","type-doctors","status-publish","has-post-thumbnail","hentry","specialties-pediatrics","addresses-70_86"],"acf":[],"yoast_head":"<!-- This site is optimized with the Yoast SEO plugin v26.0 - https:\/\/yoast.com\/wordpress\/plugins\/seo\/ -->\n<title>Kristen Prescott MD - Southcoast Health<\/title>\n<meta name=\"robots\" content=\"index, follow, max-snippet:-1, max-image-preview:large, max-video-preview:-1\" \/>\n<link rel=\"canonical\" href=\"https:\/\/www.southcoast.org\/es\/doctors\/kristen-prescott-md\/\" \/>\n<meta property=\"og:locale\" content=\"es_MX\" \/>\n<meta property=\"og:type\" content=\"article\" \/>\n<meta property=\"og:title\" content=\"Kristen Prescott MD - Southcoast Health\" \/>\n<meta property=\"og:description\" content=\"Dr. Prescott earned her Bachelor of Arts degree, Magna Cum Laude, in Anthropology from Boston Univeristy.
