Hi,
I'm moving to Passaic and looking for a good pediatrician for my children.
Ideally someone who is highly experienced and really listens to a parent's concerns.
Who do you use and why do you like that particular Dr/group.
Thanks!

I'm happy with Tenafly Pediatrics. I really like Dr. Jawetz or Dr. Wisotsky for my boys and Dr. Pagano or Dr. Braunfeld for my girls. In general, they are professional, and good at calling back, answering emails, etc. They listen well, and will tell you what they think. And they're good at talking to my kids and working with all kinds, including sensory and special needs.

Fyi, this is currently a painful subject for many people in Passaic, as we lost Dr. Samet, a well-known and amazing pediatrician and person in general, to Covid.

That is a huge practice & can feel a bit like a chicken market.
Imo I didn't find Pagano helpful with my ds' special needs with finding a therapist or psychiatrist.
Actually none of them in the office were helpful with that imo.

I use Tenafly also and doctor Shein is amazing!
I have a child with a medical condition and she is very sensitive and helpful. She even helped her get a special grant because of her condition.
Honestly I was in a different practice years ago when my doctor got diagnosed with her medical
Condition, and they dumped us when she was admitted to the picu- we were terrified our daughter was going to die and they were scared I was going to sue so they dropped out case. I switched to Tenafly not long after that and have been very happy with them since then- it’s been 5 years already.
