Pediatric Optometrist or Opthamologist

I recommend Larson Eye Center. They have an office in Downers Grove and Hinsdale. Dr Lise Guy-Bahtia (or something like that) is great with small kids. You can look on their website for more info and all their doctors info.

M.,

I highly recommend our pediatric opthamologist who is at Alexian Brothers medical center. Her name is Dr Fishman, she is EXCELLENT, so is her collegue. Her # is ###-###-####. I think she has another office also, but we've only gone to the one at the hospital.

One of my daughters had a blocked tear duct at birth, and we delt with constant eye infections. Eventually Dr Fishman performed a simple surgery, and we've gone to her since for evaluations and other eye infections.

She really is great with the kids and parents. See if she's on your medical plan or call them to find out.

We have taken our daughter to Glen Ellyn Opthamology. It's right off of Park and Roosevelt. The pedicatric doctor is a woman and she is really great with kids. My husband goes there to see Dr. Lindenmouth. I can't remember the pediatric doctor's name completely, but the receptionists there are really friendly and would help you out. She goes to the Glen Ellyn office, and she has a an office in Aurora, also. Godd luck!

I would highly recommend Dr. Kevin King with the Geneva Eye Clinic at Delnor Medical Office Bldg. Their phone # is ###-###-####. I have been going to that practice since I was 3 yrs old and my daughter has been seeing Dr. King since she was 4. There is an eye store next door that has excellent customer service especially with the little ones breaking theirs, etc.

Dr. Castillo at Dreyer Medical Clinic. ###-###-####. He has been taking care of my son since he was two. Comes in with a lot a tricks in his bag to get the kids to do the eye exams.

Good Luck.

I would also recommend Dr. Fishman. She is EXCELLENT, so is her collegue. Her # is ###-###-####. Their other location is in Wilmette but we use the Hoffman Estates office.

Try Dr. Kris Owens with Rosen Eye Care in Naperville (near 95th and Book Rd). He's a great guy and has two young kids of his own.

We go to Simpson Eye (not sure all of their locations) but it is sometimes hard to get in w/the Opth. Insurance does cover the opth rather than the optom. though.

Larson Eye Clinic, Dr. Guay-Bhatia. She examined one of our kids at one month old, and the second daughter at 6 or 7 years old. The only problem is that the dilation they routinely do there lasts several hours.

We use Fox Valley Opthalmology, Dr. Eric Quartetti, in St. Charles. 40W330 LaFox Rd., Suite A. ###-###-####.
Dr. Quartetti has been great with both my son and daughter.

Oh, I'm so sorry you had a bad experience there. My daughter and two of my day care kids go to Wheaton Eye Clinic. I know there is a woman and a male doctor that treat little kids. We went to the male doctor that is at the Naperville location on Thursdays. I know it's always hard to go back somewhere, but I know of several people, including myself that found everything to work out fine. Good luck!
