At what age are people classified as adults? is that when you should stop seeing a pediatrician?

Adults: this depends on what whether you are asking from a medical or social standpoint. In pediatric offices, the age at which pediatricians transition care to an adult doctor can be at 18 years old or 21 years old. This is dependent on the pediatric practice. In my practice, I see young adults through age 21.

Legal Adult at 18: Most countries including USA you are legally an adult at age 18.You are eligible to vote and can sign for yourself for all legal purposes and held accountable for your action Some pediatrican do not see patients over 18 years age but others see till you are 21 But some countries legal age is 16 and even 13

18: The majority of adult specialties do not see anyone under age 18, which has evolved over time for insurance liability and other reasons. Some internists I know will accept kids as early as 15, most peds will see kids until 18-21. I kid should stop seeing a pediatrician when they don't consider their physician patient connection important.That could be at 10 or 20.
