Dr. Jack Schunk is amazing. He works out of a great practice that has other awesome doctors as well. It is located at the corner of Lovejoy and NW 25th. My entire family has used them and we love everyone we see there.
Good luck!
Our baby is due in March 2007 and my OB suggested we begin considering pediatricians. Any recommendations? We live in SW Portland but are also close to NW Portland. I am the kind of person who likes to know lots of information, so I especially appreicate a doctor who is willing to take time to answer questions and provide good information or sources for further info.

I just had my daughter on September 28th, our pediatrician is Dr. Armsby at the Legacy Meridian Park campus. He's located in The Children's Clinic. So far we really like him, he answers all of our questions.
One suggestion no matter who you go to, make sure that you interview them before you decide. By interviewing them beforehand you can make sure you are comfortable with them from the start.
I am a new mommy to a 3 month old little girl; I also am the manager of a local pediatric clinic in Tigard/Beaverton area. I work for the best pediatrician ever! The practice is Horizon Pediatrics and the Docs name is Zaid Al-Mulla. You can check out our website at www.horizon-pediatrics.com or give a call to the clinic to set up a time to come meet him yourself. I am not only saying these things because I work there, I truly believe he is the best!
I absolutely recommend Dr MK Wagner at Metropolitan Pediatrics. They're located on NW 22nd, across from Good Samaritan. My 20 month-old daughter and I adore her. She's extremely competent and reassuring, and always takes the time to answer all of my questions.
I looked up her profile for you: http://www.metropediatrics.net/index.cfm?module=m_wagner&...
Good Luck! Picking the right pediatrician is tough.

Hi K.,
First of all, Congratulations! How exciting! Well, I just moved up to Portland in July, and had my ssecond child on September 11 of this year. A old friend of my husband's recommened a pediatrician. His name is Dr. Richard DeKlotz. He is with Providence Medical. He is off of Scholls Ferry. He is a great guy! Older man, and very sweet!! I just love him! My 7 week old had an ear infection in both ears, and his office called every 3 days to check on him!
Good luck! :)
Hello K.,
Congratulations on the upcomming birth of your first child. How exciting! I am a local birth doula and could recommend a few pedatricians, in fact I do on a regular basis. I was wondering however, if you might be a little more specific in what type of physician you would be interested in, or what you a looking for in that physician. You may email, me personally at ____@____.com and pass along that information.
Best of luck to you!
