Preemie Magazine and Pediatrix Medical Group Join Forces for Professionals and Parents of Premature Infants

Preemie Magazine is the nation’s leading publication for families with premature infants and the
professionals who serve them. Working with Pediatrix, the nation’s leading provider of newborn,
maternal-fetal and pediatric physician subspecialty care, these two organizations will focus on
providing medical professionals and the families of preemies with the latest research, most
focused information and invaluable sources of support.
“Preemie Magazine is honored to be working with Pediatrix,” says publisher Deb Discenza. “As
strategic partners with such a well-respected organization, we hope to bring even more helpful
information and assistance to the doctors, nurse practitioners and—of course—parents who are
dealing with the challenges and triumphs of prematurity every day.”
Together, Preemie Magazine and Pediatrix will work to reach more preemie parents and clinical
professionals through the print publication, both organizations’ websites and other special
projects.
"Preemie Magazine and Pediatrix Medical Group are both committed to a single unifying goal:
the best possible outcomes for premature infants,” says Alan R. Spitzer, M.D., Senior Vice
President and Director of Pediatrix’s Center for Research and Education. "In this respect, we
strive to work together to provide parents with the most up-to-the-minute information about
pregnancy and the high-risk neonate through both Preemie Magazine and the Pediatrix.com
website. These mutual goals are enhanced by the growing relationship between our companies, as
we continue to take great care of the tiny patients whose lives mean so much to us and their
families."
Dr. Spitzer, a renowned neonatal researcher and academician, serves on Preemie Magazine’s
Editorial Advisory Board. Pediatrix physicians, including Dr. Spitzer are also contributing
writers.
Pediatrix is committed to advancing neonatal care by sharing clinical discoveries across its
national group practice and throughout the medical community through peer-reviewed literature,
medical conferences and Pediatrix’s online learning programs, available on pediatrixu.com.
Pediatrix's relationship with Preemie Magazine will offer the magazine's readers the latest in
Pediatrix’s neonatal research, continuing medical education and quality improvement programs.
