Pediatric Neurologist

Army experience examining, diagnosing, treating, and directing care for infants and children with central nervous system disorders directly supports pediatric neurology practice.

How to prepare: Ask the target state's medical board to review your medical education, specialty training, and examination records against its physician licensure requirements, and request an employer credentialing review for pediatric neurology practice. State physician licensure is required, with requirements varying by state.

What the civilian work involves
  • Examine patients to obtain information about functional status of areas, such as vision, physical strength, coordination, reflexes, sensations, language skills, cognitive abilities, and mental status.
  • Diagnose neurological conditions based on interpretation of examination findings, histories, or test results.
