I Really Want to Find a Pediatrician That I Love!

Hey there moms. Just got home from yet another stressful visit to my pediatrician. I have three children. One son who is five years old, 2 daughters ages 3 and 2. Our family almost lives at the doctors office during the cold season. Wondering if any moms out there are really pleased with their pediatricians? Would love to hear about an office that values patient care and cares a little less about money. It would also be nice if the pediatrician actually let me finish a sentence! Thanks for your thoughts.

What can I do next?

WOW!!! Thank you all so very much! What an awesome response I got. I'm well on my way to a new pediatrician now. This site is really nice.

I absolutely adore my pediatrician. I actually went there when I was a kid. So I know he knows what he's doing. He's a little older, but a wonderful doctor and he knows his stuff. The office is a little far from ferndale though, it's in Livonia on Seven Mild Road between Farmington and Merriman. It's called Brentwood Pediatrics. Dr. Marcus is the doc I used to see, and now my son does too! Dr. AJ is the other doc there, and he's great too. Or if you are looking for someone on the younger side, Dr. Marcus' son has his own practice now. He is Dr. Todd Marcus, and you'd have to look up where he is. He used to work with his dad at the office when I went there. Anyway, hope this helps! They really are great!

Dr. David Schindler in Novi. He's a family practitioner, so he can see you as well - which you'll appreciate, cause he's awesome.

I visit Mali & Mali in Troy. I usually see Dr. Zoey. I am very pleased with this practice. I have always been able to get appointments when I need. Also, I never feel rushed during the one on one time with the physician.

Dr. Seigfried Schweighofer, ###-###-####, on 19 Mile between Garfield and Hayes. Been going there for 12 years and I love him. He's at Clinton Preferred Pediatrics across from St. Joe's (now Henry FOrd). The other doctors at that office are also great. good luck. K. S. in Warren

Hi T.. K. from Rochester Hills here. I am the mother of 9-year-old twin girls and we adore our pediatrician. You didn't say where you reside, so I don't know if Troy would be too far a distance for you to travel. The doctors name is Tamar Mazeranni, MD (Somerset Pediatrics) and he doesn't have the greatest "front-end-looking office" (cause he is into kid-care and not beautiful office) and he doesn't have an associate either, but if its excellent care that you are after, this doctor makes himself available all hours. He lives nearby his office, so has even come in on Saturday evening and on Sunday's for my girls if, for example, an ear is "screaming" with pain, or an odd-looking Christmas-tree shaped rash appears on the back, out of now where. Depending on your insurance (we have $20 co-pay), I believe he takes most. I may not be exact about the spelling of his name, but close enough that you can find him in the telephone directory.
Good luck!

My children go to Dr. Sanford Lax in Clawson. It's actually a family practice so everyone goes there. I have had a lot of bad doctors before and I absolutely LOVE him and his nurses. They remember who I am. He has a wonderful bedside manner and answers any questions I have. Actually, he is on the pediatrician list for the Birthing Center at Providence Hospital. My mother-in-law referred him to me actually. One of my sister-in-laws goes to him with her two children as well. I just feel extremely comfortable there and NEVER feel ill at ease. His number is ###-###-####.

I'm sure you have plenty of referrals now. Good luck in your choice.

Hi!

I REALLY love our pediatrician, even though it's a little bit longer of a drive than our previous one. The practice is called Orchard Pediatrics and the doctor my children see most often is Dr. Rhonda Elton. She has been great and is very thorough. The phone number is ###-###-#### and they are on Orchard Lake Road in Bloomfield Hills.

I was going to a practice closer to where I live before and believe me, Dr Elton is worth the drive! I have had some experience with the other doctors there and have been pleased as well. I hope this helps!

I am not sure where you are, but I go to Dr. Linda Bolton, she is fabulous, and the other doctors in her practice are good, but I really love her, she spends time with my kids and she listens to me. Good luck.
