    Gerard Kuhn, MD, is a board-certified pediatrician. He is an advocate for early literacy. He serves on the board of the Juvenile Diabetes Research Foundation (JDRF). I discovered during medical school that I enjoyed taking care of children most of all. I like being a part of helping families take care of their children’s health and watching them grow. I prefer the broad spectrum of pediatrics, which is why I went into primary care. I care about the quality of medical care children receive on a daily basis. I’m passionate about educating and coaching families in certain areas of childhood health that need attention. Childhood obesity is an example, where I help families understand the importance of healthy eating and exercise — and doing as both as a family.Another passion of mine would be helping families recognize the importance of early literacy. Again, this is a family activity. Children want to learn, and parents play a big part in that early learning by introducing books. I’m involved with Reach Out and Read. I’m involved with community service, like serving on the board of the Juvenile Diabetes Research Foundation to help lend some medical expertise. I’m also on the board of the Friends of the National Library of Medicine. Dr. Kuhn is rated as an Experienced provider by MediFind in the treatment of Croup. His top areas of expertise are Food Allergy, Obesity in Children, Common Cold, and Developmental Dysphasia Familial.

    Preethi Kumar, MD, is a board-certified pediatrician. She is passionate about teaching families about ways to get and stay healthy. I get immense pleasure from treating children because these are the kids who see you for close to 20 years. You see them grow up. Over that time, you see children sick, you treat them to get well, you watch them grow, and you see them flourish. Sometimes those kids, once they’ve grown and started their own families, bring their children to us. I get a lot of satisfaction from that. I love teaching and explaining things to families. This is more than a job to me, it’s a passion. Making one child feel better, having one family comfortable and happy, I’ve done my job. At the end of the day, what I’m looking for is, “How many did I treat today? How many did I make happy? How many lives did I make feel better today?” When I see people walking out of here happy and healthy, that’s all I need. One big way I try to make a difference is through education and teaching. I give talks at schools.I try to make a difference to my patients by being available when they need me. I make a lot of follow-up phone calls. I talk with parents and ask about their other children. I talk with them if my families see me out shopping or in the community. I try to remember the little details, all as a part of knowing the family and building a relationship with them. Educating the parents gives them the best tools to make the right decisions for their child. Dr. Kumar is rated as an Experienced provider by MediFind in the treatment of Croup. Her top areas of expertise are Common Cold, Food Allergy, Cluster Headache, and Obesity in Children.

    Justin D’Antuono, MD, FAAP, is a board-certified primary care pediatrician, and a fellow of the American Association of Pediatrics. He has been working with children for much of his adult life, and enjoys working to keep kids healthy throughout childhood. Ever since high school, I’ve loved working with kids. In college, I volunteered at a major children’s hospital in the northeast. I like watching children grow and develop throughout their childhood. I’ve always found helping sick children, and helping them do what kids should be doing — being happy and healthy — very rewarding. I’m passionate about preventive care to help keep children from getting sick. Simple things such as nutrition, fitness and good sleep habits, if started at an early age, will have a big pay-off later on in life in the overall health and well-being of a child.It’s also important to me to help parents with their everyday challenges, and to aid in developing parenting techniques and strategies for families. Parenting is the toughest job in the world, but it’s the best job in the world. The home atmosphere plays a huge role in a child’s development. I have two of my own kids, so I can offer practical suggestions based on what has worked in my family. We are moving our practice toward the medical home model where the family can feel that this is a place where we can take care of more than just medical problems, but also social/emotional challenges. I make myself as accessible as possible to my patients, whether it be by phone, email or appointment times, in order to fully address any concerns that parents may have. Dr. D'antuono is rated as an Experienced provider by MediFind in the treatment of Croup. His top areas of expertise are Food Allergy, Obesity in Children, Common Cold, and Cluster Headache.

    What is the definition of Croup?

    Croup is due to an infection of the upper airways that causes breathing difficulty and a barking cough. The cough of croup results from swelling around the vocal cords. It is common in infants and children.

    When should I see a Croup doctor near Middletown, DE?

    There are various reasons why you may want to see a specialist, such as: 

    • Your primary care provider recommends it. 
    • Your condition requires expert knowledge and specialized care. 
    • Your symptoms persist or worsen despite treatment. 
    • You need specialized testing or procedures. 
    • You want a second opinion.  

    What should I consider when choosing a Croup doctor near Middletown, DE?

    It’s important to see a provider with expertise in your specific condition. Each provider profile in MediFind’s doctor database includes information on which conditions they treat, years of experience, research contributions, languages spoken, insurance plans accepted, and more.  

    How does MediFind rank Croup doctors near Middletown, DE?

    MediFind’s rankings are based on a variety of data sources, such as the number of articles a doctor has published in medical journals, participation in clinical trials and industry conferences, as well as the number of patients that provider sees for a given condition. Note that MediFind’s provider database is not based on user reviews, and providers do not pay to be included in the database. 

    What types of insurance are accepted by Croup doctors near Middletown, DE?

    Most profiles in MediFind’s doctor database include a list of insurance plans accepted by that provider. However, it’s a good idea to contact the provider’s office to make sure they still accept your insurance, then doublecheck by contacting your insurance plan to confirm they’re in network. 

    How can I book an appointment online with a Croup doctor near Middletown, DE?

    MediFind offers direct scheduling for certain providers using the “Request Appointment” button on that provider’s profile. If the schedule option is not available for a provider, tap the red “Show Phone Number” button on their profile to get their contact information. If you prefer to find providers who offer online scheduling, select “Schedules online” under the “Availability” category of the filter feature on the left side of the Croup doctor search results page. 

    Why is it important to get a second opinion from a different Croup doctor?

    Second opinions are an opportunity to confirm a diagnosis and its root cause, learn about alternative treatment options, or simply gain peace of mind. Many people, especially those with serious diagnoses, get second opinions so they can understand all their options and make informed decisions, so don’t hesitate to get one if you have any doubts or need more information or clarification regarding your care. Note that some insurance plans require second opinions, while others don’t cover second opinions, so be sure to confirm with your insurance provider first.   

    How can I prepare for my appointment with a Croup doctor near Middletown, DE?

    Prepare for your appointment by gathering the following items: 

    • Copies of medical records (dating back at least one year) 
    • Your medical history, including illnesses, medical conditions, surgeries, and other doctors you see 
    • Family history of disease 
    • List of current prescription drugs, over-the-counter medicines, vitamins, and herbal remedies or supplements including names and doses 
    • Allergies to medications, food, latex, insects, etc.  
    • List of questions and concerns 
    • Your insurance card 

    You might also contact the provider’s office to see if they offer transportation or childcare services or if you’re allowed to bring a loved one for support or to take notes during your visit. 

    What questions should I ask my Croup doctor?

    Here are some sample questions: 

    • Can you explain in simple terms what this condition is and how it’s treated? 
    • What symptoms or side effects should I watch for? 
    • What tests will be involved, and when can I expect results? 
    • Are there other specialists I need to see? 
    • What’s the best way to reach you if I have follow-up questions? 

    How can I learn about the latest clinical trials and research advances my Croup doctor may know about?

    MediFind’s Clinical Trials tool asks you a series of questions to help you narrow down your search by health condition, age, gender, location, how far you’re willing to travel, and more. Each question you answer filters down the number of trials until you find the ones that are most relevant to you. 

    MediFind’s Latest Advances tool features summaries of recent articles published in medical journals. We use cutting-edge technology to scour medical publication databases for the latest research advancements on any given condition, then we simplify this information in a way that’s useful and easy to understand. 

    Can I filter my search to show male or female Croup doctors near Middletown, DE?

    Look for the filter feature on the left side of the Croup doctor search results page. Select “Female” or “Male” under the “Gender” category to search for female or male providers exclusively. If the “Any” option is selected, it will pull results for both male and female providers. 

    Can I filter my search to find a Croup doctor that offers video calls?

    Look for the filter feature on the left-side of the Croup doctor search results page. Select “Offers telehealth visits” under the Availability category to search for providers who offer virtual appointments (video calls).
