I am unhappy with my son's current pediatrician and am looking for a new one. I want a male MD (not DO) in the HEB or North Ft Worth area. I want someone who is not going to retire in the next couple of years, but not someone who is fresh out of med school. I also want someone who is going to listen to me and not brush me off or make me feel stupid when I have concerns.

What can I do next?

So What Happened?

Thank everyone for all of the advice. I met with Dr LaMere this morning and he is fantastic. I just hope he does not retire any time soon.

Dr Deitchman with Cooks off of Precinct Line in Hurst THEY are AWESOME I love him he's the greatest. He listens to my concerns as a parent, he give me advice on what he has done in the past with his own kids. Heck he even called the next day when he saw that we had a visit to the urgent care due to my son breaking out in hives! Its also nice being in the cooks network because you can go to thier urgent cares or their hospital and they have access to EVERYTHING INSTANTLY, and if you call your pedi's after hours care to let them know you are going to the ER, they will forward your information to the ER and cut down your wait time b/c your paper work is all ready to go before you even get there!

If you don't mind going to downtown Fort Worth, Dr. Richard LaMere is absolutely AWESOME!!! He has a wonderful bedside manner. He always makes sure I understand why things are the way they are. His staff is fabulous. They have an afterhours triage line that is such a help because I know my children tend to get sick on the weekends or late at night, and sometimes as a mom I am too scared to know what to do. They always give understandable instructions and listen fully to what you are saying. The number is ###-###-#### My children are now 8 and 6 and have been seeing Dr. LaMere since they were born!
Good luck to you.

Dr. Benzick is AWESOME. The clinic is in Southlake, called Southlake Family Medicine. We too, live in North Fort Worth but he is worth the drive. I have NEVER been satisfied til I found him. You can do a meet n greet with him and go from there.
