Pediatrician Referrals...

In a few weeks, my son will begin living with me full time, and as a result, I am looking for a pediatrician close to home (Woodridge). I did not choose his current pediatrican and I do not care for her or the other doctors/staff, and they are in Arlington Heights, which is a bit farther than I'm willing to go. My son's insurance company gave me referrals for the following doctors and I wanted to see if anyone has had any experience with them... good or bad.

In Woodridge....
McGowen, Jennifer, MD
Michael, Sheri L, DO
Valeriano, Juliette A, MD
Walsh, Jean L, DO

In Bolingbrook....
Webb Jr, John L, MD
Wilk, Steven M, MD
Shih, Christine H, MD

In Naperville....
Smart, Brian, MD

In Darien...
Hall, Jennifer L, MD

In Downers Grove...
Froehlich, Judith M, MD

I appreciate any insight that you can offer!

Thanks!

What can I do next?

I can't say enough wonderful things about Dr. Froelich! She is very professional and extremely punctual...don't be late! Her office in DG is next to Good Sam but there is also an office on Odgen in Naperville between Washington and Naperville Road. All of the Doctors in the practice are great and I have never had a bad experience with any of them.

I know of Dr. Jean Walsh and would recommend her. My friend used to work at her office.

I believe Jean Walsh is a general Practioner ( I go to her) and I like her. I just started to go to her about 9mos ago. she is treating me for an under active thyroid. It seems pretty easy to get to see her and she seems to have a good bed side manner. One downfall, no lab on premises, so you have to go to Quest Labs to get any lab work done and it takes up to 2 weeks for the doctor to get your results back to you.

I hope you find what you are looking for.

Hi S.-

I take my daughter (3 y/o) to Dupage medical group in Naperville (Dr. Judith Froehlich is her main doc) there is both a naperville and Downers grove location. Dr. Froehlich was my doc when I was little. I just turned 30. My experience is that they are very nice.

good luck to you!

We go to Dr. Judy Froehlich and LOVE her!!! She does a great job. Good luck!

i also use dupage med group out of good sam with judith froelich. and ditto on everything that barb said on a previous message. when i started going to them my son was younger and i was able to see most of docs in practice and feel each of them out. i try to see the same one most of the time now so my son can be more familiar and who to expect to see. but if it was an emergency, i'd feel comfortable with any of them. good luck.

I had very bad experiences Judith Froelich and most of the other doctors at her practice. They always rushed us and did NOT have good bedside manners...the nurses were ok but the doctors handled my daughter very roughly and I always felt like they didn't have time for us...

I would really advise against this practice.

PS. If your insurance allows you to go to DuPage Pediatrics in Darien, I highly recommend them...especially Dr. Davis.

Good luck!

I adore Jennifer Hall at Dupage Pediatrics in Darien. She's young and VERY personable and great with the kids. We have seen the other docs in that practice as well and they all are very good. She's just our favorite! :) Email me if you have any specific questions...
