What is the Names of the exams that a pediatrician have to take?
Licensure and certification
All States, the District of Columbia, and U.S. territories license physicians. To be licensed, physicians must graduate from an accredited medical school, pass a licensing examination, and complete 1 to 7 years of graduate medical education. Although physicians licensed in one State usually can get a license to practice in another without further examination, some States limit reciprocity. Graduates of foreign medical schools generally can qualify for licensure after passing an examination and completing a U.S. residency.
M.D.s and D.O.s seeking board certification in a specialty may spend up to 7 years in residency training, depending on the specialty. A final examination immediately after residency or after 1 or 2 years of practice also is necessary for certification by a member board of the American Board of Medical Specialists (ABMS) or the American Osteopathic Association (AOA). The ABMS represents 24 boards related to medical specialties ranging from allergy and immunology to urology. The AOA has approved 18 specialty boards, ranging from anesthesiology to surgery. For certification in a subspecialty, physicians usually need another 1 to 2 years of residency.

Is it possible to become a neonatal surgeon without becoming a certified OBGYN?
Yes, one as nothing to do with the other. To become a neonatal surgeon, you first have to do your residency for 5 years as a General Surgeon. After the five years, it takes about 3 years to become a Pediatric Surgeon and then from there you can specialize as a neo-natal surgeon. Hope that this answers your questions:)
Can a person get into medical school or pre-medical school with a degree in medical assisting?
Yes you can! Most of the people actually came from backgrounds such as medical assisting, medical transcribing etc., when they got into this field. I think most of them were working students by that time. While many individuals who pursue a career as a physician major in biology at the undergraduate level, many others come from a variety of other educational backgrounds. You should meet with a career counselor at the college or university you attend for what options exist for you. The important issue is preparing for the appropriate prerequisites required for medical school. The student should have a strong background in the following areas.
- Biology (cell biology, biology of the organism)
- Chemistry (inorganic, organic)
- Physics
- Communication (written and oral)
- Higher level math
- Computer literacy
- Development of good critical thinking skills.

What is RRR as a medical abbreviation regarding heart sounds or Heart RRR?
Heart RRR in medicine and nursing means "regular (heart) rate and rhythm". In some hospitals, it may be an acceptable charting abbreviation but it may not be acceptable use in other hospitals.

Abbreviations can aid communication-- unless some parties do not know the meaning, in which case, it will hinder communication.
