"The ACP is the largest medical-specialty organization and second-largest physician group in the United States after the AMA," ACP President Omar T. Atiq explained. "And with the extraordinary experience of our internist instructors combined with the latest pediatric information available in textbooks and online, this program is a must if you are thinking about caring for children in your clinical practice."
The DCMP program is structured on the science, art, and philosophy of pediatrics and will include more than 360 hours of instruction, combining both classroom and online modules. According to DCMP instructor Mort Fishman, an internal medicine physician for nearly four decades, the curriculum is comprehensive. "In addition to the learning modules, which were designed by a panel of adult medicine experts such as myself, there will also be a mandatory presentation before a panel of academic adult subspecialists, and a research paper on a common pediatric topic for submission to the Annals of Internal Medicine's new "Kidz Zone" section."
