I am not happy with my current pediatrician. I am looking for someone in Boro Park (or Flatbush, but preferably not). Would be great if this office has early or late hours, as I work full time.

What don't you like about your current pediatrician? That might help us figure out what sort of pediatrician to recommend.

We use Dr Mermelstein and he's amazing.

He gives you his beeper number where you can him 24/7. He's very gentle and extremely not pushy.

He never pushes invasive tests and stuff unless necessary. He would rather you call in and update him how the kid is doing multiple times before doing drastic things.

We're very happy there!

Of course these traits are very important but a good diagnostician is also a very important key. Which is why I love dr diamond. He's not a youngster and has loads of experience. The other Dr's there are younger though.

She was recommended to me by a few people I knew who said they liked her. Right away I was a little unimpressed by the lack of professionalism in the office, but as long as the Dr. knew her stuff I was ok. Recently I heard that the Dr. told a mom whose baby had 103 fever to just wait until morning, and I find that very dangerous.

Well that doesn't mean she doesn't know her stuff. A newborn I know had 103 and dr diamond also said wait till the morning and bring her in. It turned out to be viral. Had she gone into the er they would've done a lot of unnecessary tests like spinal tap etc. Dr diamond sent her for a chest x ray took bloodwork on the spot (results he gets within a few minutes). He avoided a trip the er. Sending the er right away doesn't mean a good dr. I can do that too.

I am really happy with Dr. Roth.She knows her stuff, and really cares a lot. The downside if using her though, it's the very long wait time in her office (unless you want to see a diff doc there). She might also say to wait till morning after seeing a baby with fever to avoid taking unnecessary tests.

High fever in a baby more than a few months old can easily be viral, that's why they say to wait!
