"Parenting Children with Chronic Physical and Psychological Conditions"
with Dr. Kelly Fradin
Season 7, Episode 5

“Complex care typically refers to the children at the very tip, who are the sickest and the book is really written to be more, all inclusive, because many children, while they may not be complex, they have chronic health conditions which cause a lot of increased work for their families.”- Dr. Kelly Fradin

Dr. Kelly Fradin, a pediatrician and mother of two, was inspired to become a doctor after surviving childhood cancer. She serves as the director of pediatrics at the Atria Institute in New York City, focusing on innovative preventive care. Before the COVID-19 pandemic, she worked as a public health advocate in the South Bronx and launched her popular Instagram account, “Advice I Give My Friends,” offering evidence-based guidance to families. Her book “Advanced Parenting” is based on her experiences, helping parents navigate healthcare and education systems. Dr. Fradin’s expertise has been featured in media outlets like the New York Times, Bloomberg, Forbes, and more. She’s a Harvard and Columbia College of Physicians and Surgeons graduate, and her latest book is making waves in parenting discussions.
