About Us

Pediatrics On Hand began with a tech-savvy physician, David Stockwell, MD, who recognized the value of mobile devices in pediatrics, but found a lack of reliable information on the Internet. Dr. Stockwell channeled his research into a web site designed to help residents better understand and use handhelds and smartphones.

Pediatrics on Hand has resources relevant to physicians and parents everywhere, including information for:

• Beginners - answers frequently asked questions about handhelds and a tutorial that provides handheld basics, including how to buy a mobile device and download programs
• Experienced users - the latest news on handhelds, a list of software for professionals by specialty, and links to general and medical handheld sites
• Parents - links to software that tracks children's health and personal information
