Hi ladies~
Is there anyone who could recommend a good pediatrician for my 17 month old. I just moved to Lawrence, KS in July. She had her 12 month check up already and now I need to get her in with someone for her 18 month. I know I should have figured this out already but haven't necessarily had to. Any recommendations would be great. And if you know any that take Medicaid that would be even better. ~Thanx, A.

What can I do next?

So What Happened?

Thanx ladies. I took Bella to see Dr. Rundquist. Although I think she was built up by others (I had personal friends recommend her as well) she didn't fit a lot of what everyone told me as far how much time she spends with the parent and child...I don't know maybe it was just a busy day for her and I know how that goes. She almost made me feel like Bella and I were a waste of her time, but my OBGYN was the same way the first time I met her and she was a completely different person the next time. So I'll give it up to a bad day. Nonetheless, Bella was taken care of:) and that's all I'm worried about.

Hiya!!

My only choice is Dr. Beth Rundquist. She's very very attentive, though sometimes this causes a wait in the waiting room, as she's attentive to others, too. She saw my (much) younger sisters when fresh out of med school and diagnosed them with a genetic disorder no one else could figure out. She's seen my 9 & 10 year old daughters since they were born and has kids a little younger than that of her own. She's a fantastic doctor and mother, and I trust her with my kids. When she's not in you can see one of her partners, too, as there are 5 or so in the office. ###-###-####

Hi A.,

Welcome to Lawrence. I have a 6 month old baby boy and I use Dr. Kelley as his pediatrician. Though I can not speak on his entire group, I've been very happy with Dr. Kelley, and I've heard great things about his partner Dr. Riorden as well. The group does accept Medicaid, and they are very good about answering any questions you have.

I take my son to Family Medicine Associates and they are wonderful. I have seen all of the peds over there. They are open evenings and weekends and are very good if you call in with questions over the weekend.

I also know that a lot of people take there kids to dr office off of maine street. I am sorry but I can't remember the name I think it might be runquist i am not for sure though. There are plenty in this town and I think that they are all good.

Welcome to Lawrence it is a great town to live in!!
