Post-test CME/CDE

The Accreditation Council for Continuing Medical Education requires that CME providers document that CME activities increase physician competence or performance or improve patient outcomes. In order to assess whether the recent COVID-19 educational program increased participants' competence in the areas addressed in the Program, AAMS is conducting a post-activity assessment of the Program.

You are asked to complete below quiz on the content of the Educational Expert Series Webinars on Various Aspects of COVID-19.

Your CME/CDE certificate will be emailed to you.

Thank you for your help. The information you provide helps AAMS better address the educational needs of the medical community. We hope the Scientific Program contributed to your professional development.

Dr. Alice Abrahamian is a Board Certified pediatrician practicing General Pediatrics at Central Pediatrics in Glendale. Dr. Abrahamian was born in Germany and grew up in the San Fernando Valley. She completed her undergraduate education at UCLA and medical school at Boston University. She completed residency training at Children’s Hospital Los Angeles (CHLA), a national leader in pediatric care. At CHLA, she was selected to serve as Chief Resident and helped teach and supervise residents while continuing to care for complex and diverse cases. She went on to deepen her experience caring for underserved children at the South End Community Health Center in Boston, where she directed a program created to help children obtain a healthy weight while focusing on nutrition and a regular exercise regimen. Dr. Abrahamian now provides pediatric care at Central Pediatrics, a practice she established with Adrine Yadegarian, MD, FAAP, and that is a part of the CHLA Health Network. In addition to providing loving care to children and adolescents in the community with a special focus on nutrition, sports, and fitness she enjoys teaching CHLA residents on their outpatient pediatrics rotation. She is a member of the American Academy of Pediatrics, American Medical Association, Armenian American Medical Society, and the Gold Humanism Honor Society.

She received her Medical Degree in 2005 at the Loma Linda University School of Medicine, where she had many opportunities to practice medicine overseas, from Honduras to Armenia. A desire to be close to family, friends, and community brought her back to Childrens Hospital Los Angeles for a pediatric residency, which she completed in 2008. She practiced at Kaiser Permanente upon graduation through 2011, and had the opportunity to work as a pediatrician in the Emergency Department of Boston Childrens Hospital (formerly Childrens Hospital Boston) the subsequent year. She resumed practice in Pediatrics with the Kaiser Permanente Medical Group in 2012. In her commitments to the Armenian Community, Evelyn has always been an active participant in AAMS functions, beginning with volunteering at the First Annual Health Fair.
