we've been reaaly satisfied with West Broward Pediatrics in Plantation. We usually see Dr. Morrison, but they're all good and they are quite accomodating :)

Hi, I absolutely LOVE my pediatrician...he came very highly recommended to me,and now I know why. His name is Dr. Stephen Restler with Pediatric Associates in Coral Springs. They also have the added benefit(which is huge,I might add)of being open 7 days a week, 365 days a year. I can't tell you how nice it is to have that convenience. Anyhow,I'm sure you'll make the right decision,in whatever you choose. I hope this info. helps you!

Welcome to Plantation. Good luck on your move. I live in Plantation, have a 3 yr old son and I use Pediatric Associates ###-###-####. What I like about them is that you can see any doctor you want. I use the same doctor for my son's yearly exam. When he's sick, I see any other dr. They also have extended hours in Coral Springs and are also available weekends and holidays. You can call & go in for a consultation if you desire. I use Dr Teresa Santos as my son's regular doctor and I usually see Dr Lawrence Garter otherwise. You can also check them out online - www.PediatricAssociates.com

Good luck. Take care.

I absolutely love Children's Medical Association. They have three offices, Plantation, Tamarac, and Coral Springs. At least one office is open every single day including holidays. I use Dr. Matthew Penson but any of the doctors are great, including Dr. Sirota, Dr. Stavitsky, Dr. Pearson and Dr. Valdez. The main number is ###-###-####.

My girls went to Dr. Chreresnick at the Coral Square Pediatics. The phone number there is ###-###-####. He is great with children and I highly recommend him. If you call ask to get an appointment with him as there are other doctors in the same office or you might end up with the nurse practioner, whom I do not recommend.

We probably won't be going there after this year as my girls will be 17 years old this year.

look up Mary Ellen Zondorak-Perez. I'm a doctor too and alot of doctors choose her as their own kids doctor...a real vote of confidence. I live in the CS area, and travel across town to Dr. Howard Gill at Holy Cross, who I also highly recommend.

Hi V.;

My son has been seeing Dr. Donald Marcus and his associate Michael Friemark.

He is almost two. They have been his doctors since he was born.

They are all very nice. Even the office staff and the medical staff are all nice.

They are in Plantation: ###-###-####

If you want someone while you are in Plantation,we use Pediatric Assoc. That might make it easier when you move if you switch to the one in Coral Springs. I have seen all of the doctors in the practice but I prefer Dr. Juwaid (female) and Dr. Garter (male). I exclusively breastfed my babies and had many questions about vaccinations. Both of them spent a lot of time with me and never once seemed in a rush. They offered good suggestions when I had milk supply issues instead of just pushing formula. Dr. Garter used to make it a point to change the cloth diapers on my kids just to keep from losing his touch :) I thought that was cute. Good luck with your search.

My children go to Children's Medical Association
###-###-####. They have offices in Plantation, Coral Springs (Heron Bay) and Tamarac. We see Dr. Louis and he is great. I prefer the Heron Bay office for my main office for well check ups, no wait and very quiet, great nurses there. I will go to whichever office Dr. Louis is at when they are sick. If he isn't on I Do trust the other Dr's also just the kids are use to seeing him and he knows them.
