A neonatologist is a pediatric medical doctor who specializes in the
diagnosis and treatment of disorders in newborns. Neonatologists are usually
consultants and work in neonatal intensive care units, providing care for
premature infants or those born with infections or other health
problems.
Neonatologists can be board-certified through the Board of
Pediatrics, which is recognized by the American Board of Medical
Specialties.
