My family just moved to the area and I need to find a pediatrician as well as a family physician for the rest of us. I would prefer an internal medicine doc. I also need an ob-gyn. I have heard great things about Cornerstone Pediatrics but some negative about the only doc that's accepting patients there. Please help!

What can I do next?

So What Happened?

Thanks to everyone for the responses. I took my son to Pediatric Associates of Madison today--it turns out that he has an ear infection and the croup. We saw Dr. Bryant there and she was so nice and really took her time to answer all questions and thoroughly examine Isaac. Plus, they let me bring him in even though I didn't have his records from his previous doc in NC yet. One of the other offices here flat out refused to see him without his records. I understand that to an extent but I know his history, the records are on the way, and he is pretty sick. So thanks to everyone who recommended P.A.M. I think we've found a winner!

I, too, take my son to Pediatric Associates of Madison. I love the doctors there. The nurses are great, too. We see Dr. Dudley but I hear the other doctors are nice. For an OBGYN, I go to Dr. Fiore. I can't think of the name of the practice but I'm pretty sure you can look him up by name. He is so nice and attentive! I actually have 3 friends that see him, too. As for a doctor of internal medicine, the only one I know of by name is the mother of a former student of mine. She a very nice lady but I can't speak for her as a doctor. Her name is Dr. Yousuf and she is located at:

Athens Internal Medicine
1005 W Market St # 16
Athens, AL 35611

I really hope some of this information helps! Welcome to the area!

Hi S.,

Like you, we moved here a few months ago and are in the same boat (looking for a quality pediatrician). So far we are seeing Dr. Terry (Providence Main) and have had no issues...but it depends on which kind of approach you're looking for - more holistic or medical?

For GYN I see Diana Dowdy who is a nurse midwife with the Clinic for women in Huntsville http://www.clinicforwomen.com/about-clinic-for-women.html - do you plan to have more children?

I also have a 13 month old girl, 8 year old son and 23 year old step-daughter.

Welcome to Alabama!

Blessings,
A.
