Whoever you choose, just make sure they are affiliated with either SwedishAmerican or Rockford Memorial Hospital. St. Anthony's Medical Center is great for adult care, but they have a terrible pediatrics care floor if your child ever needs in patient care. The second choice is Swedish American--they at least have a Pediatrics floor, though they do NOT have Pediatric Intensive Care. For that, only Rockford Memorial has a PICU. So if your child has any unusual health conditions, you would really be wise to find a pediatrician affiliated with Rockford Health System, though I personally don't have any preference for them, and in fact drive my kids to doctors in Madison, WI. I just wanted you to know what the hospital care is like in Rockford, as some people don't think about that when choosing a doctor, and if you need it later, it can be a BIG hassle. Best of luck, K.
P.S. My sister uses a pediatrician in the group at Rockford Clinic and seems happy with him.

I go to UIC L.P. Johnson center. It's located on E.state St right on Swedish American Hospital's campus. They are very friendly and you don't take a long time in the waiting room. I was wondering what day care center do u work at? My mom is a cook's helper at Rockford Day Nursery Early learning center. That's why I was wondering.

Hi, Both of my children see Dr. Mark Hornbach. His office is located on Rockton Rd in a building near the Rockford Memorial Hospital. I have always found him to be a caring and thorough doctor. There are also several other Pediatricans in the office to choose from. I'm very happy having him as our Pediatrician!!
