RK Newport Towne, Newport, RI 02841

Dr. Rajkamal Singh is a graduate of Philadelphia College of Osteopathic Medicine.

"He is now at the UT Primary Phyicians Center in Sevierville Tennessen. I went to see him yesterday and I have stage 4 terminal incurable brain and lung cancer. My husband was trying to explain to him how when I have asthma attacks I end up having panic attacks as well. Also with the terminal cancer and haven been given a life expectancy of anywhere from 2 hours up to maybe 2 years should the Immunal Therapy Keytruda treatments work. Of course I have anxiety, who wouldn't knowing that they have such a short time to live?? (Apologises for straying off topic) As my husband was trying to explain about my asthma attacks, panic attacks and my anxiety Singh closes my file a and proceeds to spout these exact words from his mouth and lips. Quote " I can not write scripts for anything that can help you. I just started this job and I need it. I really do not want to make my new bosses mad at me so soon after just starting my new job. " Endquote. Instead of referring me to someone that could help me or even setting me up to see the physician that must stand good for every decision good or bad that this man makes. He is more worried about his job and not upsetting his bosses than me the patient and what I face every second since I received my cancer death sentence. I was so shocked that all I remember doing was trying not to fall when standing up. There is no excuse for the way today's medical professional's are treating those of us that are in the process of dying. Is it that they will not be getting our insurance for much longer because there is nothing else that can be done for us medically. Nothing other than try to keep us as pain free and comfortable as the government allows these days due to the drug problem in the country. This is wrong by every definition of the word wrong and you there reading this post have agreed with me through my entire post. "

What is General Pediatrics?

General Pediatrics is defined simply as the medical care of children and adolescents. It is one of the broadest specialties, delivering care to patients from birth through young adulthood, and encompassing everything from preventive health to the management of acute and chronic illness. Pediatricians care for the physical, emotional, behavioral, developmental, and social problems that affect children and teens.

A general pediatrician has a wide variety of responsibilities, including:

The management and treatment of illnesses and injuries
Discouraging the spread of serious illness in children, through education and vaccination
Monitoring patients' physical and developmental growth
Performing routine health screenings
Promoting a healthy lifestyle
Guiding parents in all areas of parenting, from offering reassurance to giving advice on everything related to their child, such as feeding, safety, and education

Perhaps more than any other patient group, children are products of the environment in which they live. Because of this, pediatricians don't just treat kids -- they treat communities and families as well. They often become advocates for children and for children's rights. General pediatricians are physicians dedicated to the health and well-being of young people.
