who is your pediatrician? which hospital has the best emergency care? and picu? which doctor would you go to when you have a child with medical needs needs blood work periodically, and a specialist? (ps I am not driving yet, so its not easy getting around) I need a doctor that is calm and confident and not an alarmist. someone that has been around the bend. I have seen dr hirsh in chemed and I would love to continue there but the other things around it is making me leave. so if you know him thats the type I am looking for. hes calm, respectful, knowledgeable, caring. all in one. I just wish he had his own practice. I would go there without a blink of an eyelash. I dont know if I am willing to go to shanik, I cant wait an hour to see a doctor. if I have no choice I will. but its out of the norm for me. if he has all the other factors I might give it a try. I still dont know much about westpark . dr gittleman sounds like an alarmist. thats not for me.
need to be anonymous for childs medical condition.

I hear people are very happy by dr eilenberg.

I use indich, very quick in and out, not sure if that's what you want. He'll do blood work, or send you to a lab, depends when. For specialists he has ppl he recommends but I personally do my own research for that and pick who I want.

I use Gittelman's practice. On one hand I hear you about him being an "alarmist" but on the other hand so may times when I was concerned about something he was the one to calm me down. Also Dr Ukrainchik works with him and he is absolutely PHENOMENAL doctor.

Good Luck!

I use westpark and am very happy. I book my check ups with dr setton - very sweet/ caring/ confident.... Dr sasson ( in this practice is supposed to be a great diagnostician)
The office is well run, professional... - though dr setton gets booked pretty fast.... There are other drs there that people love.
