Externs commonly work alongside pediatricians, nurses, and other healthcare professionals, gaining hands-on experience with a wide variety of pediatric cases. The role typically includes both direct patient interaction and learning opportunities, balancing observation with performing certain tasks as allowed by your training level. This gives externs a well-rounded introduction to pediatric healthcare settings, valuable for future career growth.
