Are there any really good pediatricians

I take my kids to one of these factory places and I really want to go somewhere smaller, where they’re recognized, where the doctor (not np) tries to figure out what’s going on and you feel like they’re good diagnosticians.

Does such a doctor exist in Lakewood?

Also have to be willing to do delayed vaccinations as my kids have bad reactions as infants.

The trick with bigger practices is to pick a few doctors that you like and only see those ones consistently which I have not had an issue with doing in the practice that my kids are in.

But do you always get to see them for every last minute sick visit?

Precious health.
Re sick visits, I have a few on rotation that I like and I try to see them but if it's for something silly, I don't really care.

I put another vote for precious health. Thrilled with that place. All the providers are amazing and try to diagnose and give personal attention to this best of their ability, specifically I’m thrilled with PA Ben Jacobs.

For sick visits you often can’t see doctors

Dr Fensters practice is really good. It's really not a factory feel. He's very on top of things and gives you the time that you need. He definitely let's delayed vaccination. Im thrilled there

I use Dr Gittlemans practice and dr U is my main dr. He personally knows my kids and I can reach him as needed pretty much any time. For something not urgent you leave message with front desk and say which doctor you want it to go to. For very urgent, I have his number.
I use an NP that I like consistently for my older DD

I use Shanik and will see any pa for an ear infection or strep or the like. But any time I need to see Dr shanik or haimowitz or Jennings never had an issue seeing someone when needed to for a bigger problem

I take my son to Dr. Miller there, I am always surprised on how he remembers my son even if it's been a whole year since he has seen him.
