Among Women 161: Catholic Pediatricians Make a Difference!

imgtopJoin me for a great new Among Women podcast episode featuring the lives of Catholic pediatricians and the good they bring to the world around us. This time around we’ll profile the life of St. Gianna Molla, a wife, mother and pediatrician who, in 1962, died heroically in the days following the birth of her fourth child, the same child that her physician recommend that she abort.

She’s also writing over at CatholicMOM.com.

In this interview Dr. Berchelmann explains the benefits of finding a Catholic Pediatrician as she takes on the moral and medical questions regarding raising teenage girls with regard to the Gardisil vaccine, oral contraceptives for girls with difficult periods, and similar medical dilemmas facing teens and their parents.
