Pediatric hospitalists
MassGeneral for Children at North Shore Medical Center has three pediatric hospitalists on staff. Edward Bailey, MD, Elizabeth Coray, MD, and Kristin O'Sullivan, MD, manage the care of pediatric patients during their stay in hospital. They monitor every child's progress and are accessible in cases of emergencies or if concerns arise. They ensure fast turnaround of tests and treatments and keep each child’s pediatrician and family members informed. After a child is discharged from the hospital they help ensure a smooth transition of care back to his or her pediatrician or family medicine physician (they can also help family members find a physician if the child does not have one).
