A pediatrician is a specialized medical doctor. In the United States that means acquiring a four year bachelors degree that includes pre medical classes. Typically those classes are a year of physics, year of Biology, year of basic chem and a year of organic chem and calculus. After a bachelors you go on to apply to medical school, and after four years of med school you do a residency(a training in a hospital before you officially become a doctor, in order to be accepted into a residency you have to pass an exam after medical school). The residency is typically three to four years long for a pediatirician.
