The history of our society began 100 years ago in 1924. In the 1920s, the scientific approach, treatment and education of childhood diseases gained more and more ground. Professional bases, clinics, children's shelters and children's hospitals specializing in pediatrics opened in many places in the country. At the initiative of Professor János Bókay Jr., the Hungarian Society of Pediatricians was founded in 1924, and has been operating continuously ever since. The goal remains, in line with the founder's intention, to promote the scientific development of pediatrics in Hungary and to expand professional knowledge in order to provide the highest possible level of care for sick children. Pediatricians have been serving society in our country for 100 years, treating and caring for children; during their work, they have cared for 14 million children in the healthcare system so far.
