We are very new to the area (less than a week) and we need to locate an excellent pediatrician right away--not as in 911 imediately, but today, tomorrow, maybe the next day. :)
Thanks to all,
K.
We go to Terry Jones at Springfield Clinic. Very responsive, but laid back, and he has a nurse who will call back very quickly if you need advice.
My daughter's and soon to be son's pediatrician is Nicole Florence at Koke Mill Medical Center. The number is ###-###-####. She is absolutely wonderful and always takes time to talk with me and her office is unbelievable in getting us in whenever needed! Just call and talk to her nurse, not the receptionist!!
Hi K.,
Hands down Dr. Virginia Dolan! I take my three (10, 8 & 3) kids there and she is great! Her nurses are also very nice. She is in Koke Mill. I don't know if she is taking new patients but it is worth a call.
Also, We were just there the other day and had to see Dr. Ashish John (strep) because Dr. Dolan was out of the office and he was also very nice and very detailed. His staff was also very friendly.
Best Wishes on your search.
My sons see Dr. Misty Phillips, who is with Springfield Clinic. I absolutely love her! She has young children, so I feel like she really understands. I have not had to see any of her partners, but her staff is wonderful.
We use Dr. Mark McKay at the Springfield Clinic on Wabash and the best part is he takes patients from birth to elderly. My daughter was very sick a few years ago and he caught something that we would never think of because he wanted to be so thorough. He listens and takes his time with his patients. I've been a patient of his since he first came to the Clinic and from the first visit I was sold on him as a doctor. Good luck in your decision. My kids are 8 and 4.
