Mother Daughter Seminar Series

Pediatric Specialists of Nashville presents the Mother Daughter Seminar Series, a 3-part discussion series of issues most pressing to young adolescent women today. The adolescent years are such a formative time. During these years a girl will decide which values she holds dear and what type of person she wants to be. One of the most important parts of what we do is to empower girls to make informed decisions regarding their health today and in the future. We cannot always know when our daughters will be making these important decisions, but we can prepare them to make educated ones. Why not provide your daughter with the best advice and information about her development. Physician speakers are Amy Johnson MPAS, PA-C and Dr. Shontae Buffington of our Spring Hill location. Join us for an evening of hot topics, camaraderie and hors d'oeuvres. This event is open to the public and attendance is free of charge. 

Everyone has a good time and is made to feel comfortable in a non-judgmental environment. The parents had as many questions as the girls! One of the moms approached us after one of the seminars and said it was a great way to break the ice with her daughter. She said, “I worry about what my daughter is learning from other teenagers. My daughter was able to ask questions from a professional and I felt good knowing she was getting the correct information. I wish I had this type of service when I was a teenager.”
