I am a mom to be for the first time and seeking for Pediatrician in Aurora-Naperville area. Does anyone have any recommendations? It's been so hard for me to decaide on one, because I know nothing about pediatricians. Also, Rush Copley Hospital would be the closest location, but even if it's around that area it would work. Please help! Thanks!!

What can I do next?

I use Dr. Overcash (female) out of Rush Copley - you can read her bio on the rush copley site. My baby girl is 14 weeks and the Dr. is sooooo nice and informative. She's very patient with me and her staff is very helpful. I really like her and my baby feels comfortable with her. Plus she has weekend apointments available. Good luck and best wishes.

I'd recommend Dr. Christopher Stallter. He's associated with Rush Copley and his office is on Indian Trail Road off of Eola. He is wonderful with my 3 and 5 year old and has been their doctor since birth.

When I was a first time Mom, he was very patient with all of my questions and would spend as much time as it took for me to be comfortable with the shots being administered, explaining things to do at home when my child was sick, etc. He's great!

Try calling Dr. David Morris, he has been just so great w/ my two kids, and best thing is, he's not an alarmist, he's not into over-medicating, he's very cool and very great, spends time w/ you and your kids, i just love him. A few of my friends now take their kids to him too and they like him just as much as well! I think he works out of Edwards in Naperville, but he's also in Wheaton and Glen Ellyn.

We use Dr. James Webb at Apple a Day Pediatrics in Oswego. We love him and the nursing staff.

By the way, you can meet him first if you feel more comfortable. That is what we did.

I take my kids (a 2 year old and 7 monthold)to Dr. Milani @ Rush Copley ###-###-####. He is a family practitioner so my husband and I see him as well. I love having that option too. He is great with the kids and has little ones of his own so I have always felt that he knows where I am coming from.

Good Luck with your new arrival!

Dr. Priti Amin with Dupage Medical Group on Rollingridge in Naperville is awesome. She is a wonderful, smart, kind pediatrician. The office is nice too, and so are the nurses.

We love our pediatrician. Her name is Dr. Erin Shanks. She works out of ABC Pediatrics in Naperville on Book and 75th st. There phone number is ###-###-####. Their bedside manner is fabulous. They will spend as long as you need talking with you and answering questions you have about your child. We have seen all the doctors in that office and every single one of them is excellent. They are great with the kids and if there is an emergency they will fit you in at the spur of the moment. I live in Oswego and there are alot of doctors office closer but they are so great that I drive that extra mile. Congratulations and good luck!!

Dr. Michael Riecherts is an EXCELLENT Doctor.. he listens to you, talks to your child, considers anything you bring up and firmly believes that the parents know their child. He's not overly evasive and will do only what he feels needs to be done (so no over medicating, or unnecessary procedures).

He's on the corner of 103rd and rt. 59 his number is: ###-###-####

The Nurse Practioners in the office are great! as well as the other peds.
