I have not met this doctor but my daughter is taking our grandchildren to her. Her husband is also a doctor and my husband has been seeing him for a year and really likes him. Other friends have also gone there and really like them. They are very personable people who spend time with their patients. Her father is a cardiologist as well. They have opened a fairly new practice here in Colorado Springs and are accepting new patients. I do not know if they accept medicaid or not but it is highly probable. R.

I have used the same family doctor/peditrician since my son was born 9 years ago, I am sure he is taking new medicaid, his name is Charles Johnson, his number is ###-###-####. All of the doctors in his building are awesome. It is worth a shot, he is the only doctor that would listen when we were sure my son had ADHD. And sure enough he did.

Hi there!!! Good luck with your delivery and my thoughts go out to you right now. The end of pregnancy always seems to be the toughest!!! I would highly HIGHLY reccomend Dr. Underhill and Hover, they are part of Mountain View Medical Group. They are very nice, adore all the kids that come in, and are always quick to give a free sample of children's Tylenol, etc. (which I always really appreciate). Their number is ###-###-####. There office is located right next to Penrose Community Hospital off of Academy just North of Palmer Park.
Also, my best friends pediatrician is Dr. Mendel, ###-###-####. She loves him. He is way up north on Delmonico ( I believe that is in the Rockrimmon area)
Good luck with everything! :-)

Community Health is always taking new Medicaid patients. They have some really good Dr. ###-###-####. Also Kids Are Great Pediatrics is accepting new Medicaid patients. 1715 N Weber Ste 240 ###-###-####. There are very few Dr. that except new patients on Medicaid and it should be this way.

Good luck to you with you new baby.

They are located downtown on N. Weber. Their number is ###-###-####. Good luck with the delivery and I wish you all the best with your new little one.
