Need Doctor That Respects Vaccination Choices Arlington, TX
Can you recommend a doctor for our needs? We recently moved to Arlington. I need to find a doctor for our family. I would consider a pediatrician for my children, rather than all of us going to the same family practice. My priority is finding a doctor who respects a parent's choice to not vaccinate or vaccinate selectively/alternative schedule. I'm hoping to find a provider in Arlington or within a 20 minute drive. We are very near the Grand Prairie border.
So What Happened?™
I still haven't decided for sure. I'm considering Healthy Kids Pediatrics in Frisco. (Yes, kinda far.) Also, Sharon Dennis at Arlington Family Practice.

My kids pedi is named dr ruth bernardez-tan. I just luv her. She is at rainbow childrens clinic at mayfield and 360. Give them a call to check on the vaccanation thing. I stick to the guidelines. She is wonderful and I trust her. Give her a call.

I highly recommend Dr. Chimene Fikkert! She has offices in south Arlington (on I-20 and Matlock) and in Mansfield. She is open to alternative vaccination schedules, and I think she's a wonderful doctor. My kids love her!
Her number is 817/557-5437. Best of luck to you!

Try Dr. Sharon Dennis. She is a DO and a family doctor. She is great with both my boys. She will ask you to sign a form if you don't vax, and will ask why you don't, but she won't look at you like you have two heads ;) (other docs in her practice might, though.)
Good luck!

My husband is a Chiropractor in Mansfield. We see mostly vaccine injured as well as families who have been given the boot for vaccination choices! Our 3 children have only seen their daddy as their doctor! A firm believer that the spine is the key to helping our bodies do their job! If you are interested, we are actually running a special this month that the first visit is $60 made payable to Mission Arlington. Our number is ###-###-####.
