I'm not sure where you live in Akron, but if you're not too far North, we love Dr. Valeri Hood at Childrens Hospital Physicians Associates (CHPA) in Green.

Congratulations on your new baby girl!

Hello and Congradulations on the new baby. Choosing a pediatrician can be difficult. I have five children and all of them see Dr. Rubin (female) at CHPA Ellet on Sanitarium Rd. in Springfield. She is wonderful and down to earth. Their number is ###-###-####. Give them a call. Good luck and best wishes!

H.,
First of all, CONGRATULATIONS!!!!!! Babies are wonderful. I also was unhappy with my pediatrician. I finally found a doctors office that is wonderful. It is called Locust Pediatric Care Group, and they are accross the street from Children's hospital's emergency room. They are part of the hospital, so all of the records are there if you ever need to take her to hospital for anything. The office is so nice! everyone is really personable, and they NEVER act like you are a pain in the butt when they have to do something for you (like a dr's office should). they also have toys in the waiting room, so the kids don't get bored, and they play cartoons on the tv, and people are NOT allowed to change the channel! Another great feature is that there is a certified nurse practitioner there also, and she can see your daughter if the dr. is not available; you dont have to wait for the dr to have an opening, or take her to urgent care. They have a helpline too for after hours concerns. Also, although Alyssa is still little, they give books to kids everytime they come in for an appt.! If you can't tell, I LOVE this place. I actually feel like my kids are getting the care and attention they deserve. I really feel like you would love them too! Again, they are called LOCUST Pediatric Care Group, and their phone number is ###-###-####. I hope this helps, and congratulations again!! P.
