Do your children love to play doctor?

Little Medical School is inspiring tomorrow's doctors today!The Little Medical School knows that children love to dress up and pretend to be doctors, nurses, and other medical staff. Through our educational enrichment programs, we create an opportunity for children to experience this role play with real tools that doctors, nurses, veterinarians, pharmacists, and dentists use. Our programs provide a fun, innovative, and engaging curriculum that is aligned with STEM objectives. In class, children learn the real medicine and science behind these medical careers. We offer summer camps, after school programs, in-school field trips, birthday parties, and scout classes.

What started out as a concept that connected medical students and residents with the community and children, has grown into an educational program that inspires children to pursue a career in the medical field. Mary Mason, the founder of Little Medical School created the concept in 1999 while working on her MBA at Washington University and before she started her Chief Resident year for Internal Medicine. Mason's mother was a pediatrician and was always coming up with fun activities to get her daughters interested in medicine. Many of these activities inspired our Little Medical School classes.In 2011, we started with Little Medical School, Little Pharmacy School, and Little Nursing School. Accompanying those today are Little Veterinarian School, Little Dental School, Sports Medicine, Wilderness Medicine, Pediatrician School, and coming in 2019 Little Nutrition School. Little Medical School started in St. Louis, Missouri, and now we have over 40 franchises worldwide. To find a location near you, go to our website https://www.littlemedicalschool.comOur vision is for EVERY child to discover how the body works, understand the importance of health, and to explore what career opportunities are available to them in healthcare.
