This dr is not in the Sandy Springs/ Atlanta area but he is the best doctor!! I unfortunetly am moving out of state and am so upset to have to leave him. If you don't mind driving to this area... he is located off of Nesbit Ferry Rd, off of exit 7A. Dr. Bergmann @ The Pediatric Place. ###-###-####, www.thepediatricplace.com. He is affiliated with Northside. I learned about him on mamasource and am so thankful. He runs his practice by himself, he's young & has the best bedside manors, cares about his patients... I could go on and on. Hope you get to meet him.

My sons' pediatrician is Dr. Stephanie Jernigan at Dunwoody Pediatrics. Here's the contact info:
5501 Chamblee Dunwoody Rd
Dunwoody, GA 30338
###-###-####

She's been our pediatrician since our sons have been born (8 years). We love her! She's dependable, trustworthy. She listens to our concerns. She returns phone calls. We're able to make sick visits on the same day. If we're not able to see her for the sick visit, the other doctors are just as good. We haven't had a problem with any of them! I'd highly recommend her. They're affiliated with Northside Hospital. If she can't come to the hospital for your delivery, they will send another doctor from the practice. Again, we were pleased and didn't have any problems with them doing the first check-ups while we were in the hospital. I'm sure you can set up an appointment with her to do a consultation to determine if she's a good fit for you and your family.

Hi! I know what it's like to be new, I've been here 6 months and like it better everyday. I just delivered my 2nd baby here at Northside 4 months ago and had a great experience. The pediatrician I use for both of my daughters is great. Dr. David Roe with Piedmont Pediatrics ###-###-####. They are off of Collier Rd at Piedmont Hospital in-town. I live in Dunwoody and think he is well worth the 15 minute drive. The office needs some updating cosmetically but the staff and drs are so kind! They do not service Northside Hospital but have a practice (Neonatal Associates) that goes to the hospital to check on the babies for them. Neonatal Ass. sends reports to Dr. Roe and after those initial few visits at the hospital you are in the great hands of Piedmont Pediatrics. Good luck and enjoy!!

Hi K..

We have really enjoyed Dr. Ellerine at Peachtree PArk Pediatrics. You never have to wait in a waiting room of sick children! (When you arrive, you are promptly put into a private room.) The wait is never long, and Dr. Ellerine is very knowledgeable. They have a nurse's line you can call and ask questions, and I love the staff. They actually listen! I think their website is www.peachtreeparkpeds.com. Good luck with your search.

K.,

We also use Dunwoody Pediatrics and are very happy with the whole practice. I have 2 kids and the oldest is 7 and we have used Dunwoody Pediatrics since he was born. My kids' primary pediatrician is Dr. Gerald Reisman at the practice, but I think we have seen every doctor including the NP for various sicknesses, etc throughout the years and I have not had a bad experience with anyone. When I was pregnant with my first child, I "interviewed" several practices and with Dunwoody Pediatrics, they set up a meeting where I met one of the head pediatricians individually to discuss my questions, not just an office manager or a group meeting to learn about the practice. That sold me on them. That was 8 years ago so I don't know if they do things exactly that way now, but I would definitely recommend the practice, regardless.
