North bethesda? Willing to go to Fairfax hospital (VA) area or Shady Grove Hosp in MD for someone who would have great skills and works well with 7 year olds.
I concur -- Lynn Duffy is fantastic. She worked with my daughter when she was an infant, so I'm not sure about how she deals with seven year olds, but she has a great reputation for a reason!
Dr. Benny Kerzner at Children's is one of the best gastroenterologists in the country and a really great Doctor. He never rushed us, always answered all questions and had a great way of communicating directly with my child. He has hours at several of the Children' clinics as well as the main hospital building. We found it easiest to see him at the Spring Valley location in DC on Mass Ave. The staff there is really great. Their number is 202/745-8860. You can see Dr. Kerzner's profile on the Children's website at
http://www.childrensnational.org/FindADoctor/DoctorProfil...
On that page they also list all the clinics where he sees patients. Good luck.
I have taken both of my boys to Dr. Lynn Duffy in Rockville. She is absolutely awesome! I have taken them to other ped gastro's and she is by far the best. Her contact information is:
INOVA Pediatric Gastroenterology
15020 Shady Grove Road, Suite 315
Rockville, MD 20850
To make a new patient appointment, you have to call their VA office, ###-###-####.
