I'm guessing that many pediatricians are gifted (I think I heard that most specialists in the medical field have IQ >130). But whether they know it or not probably depends on how old they are and their elem. school's recognition of giftedness. We have a fabulous pediatrician - we found out later that there is a waiting list for him because everyone wants him, and they eyed us suspiciously because we got him (i don't know how!). Anyway, he noticed and commented on our son's early grasp of things, saying e.g., "my kids were early at that too." But when I asked if there were any resources/advice for gifted toddlers/preschoolers, he said there's nothing until school. Looking at the Seng pamphlet probably wouldn't have helped me much. What really helped me was finding this forum while searching the internet for answers about what i should do with my little one. Perhaps a list of websites and short descriptions on the SENG pamphlet would be helpful.
