I have just moved to Lake Jackson from Indiana, and would love to hear some recomendations for good pediatricians in the area. I would also like to know about any ped. I should stay away from. I also like the idea of possably finding a dr that practices natural med. as well as traditonal (someone that would write a script if needed but would also suggest natural options that are available)

What can I do next?

So What Happened?

Thank you all for the recomendations. The majority said Bottenfield or Hardoin, so I tried to schedule a check up for my 6 mnth old w/one of those 2 dr's. But neither is taking new patients. 1 person also mentioned Dr Ryan & since I like the idea of a female Dr I tried her. I am so far happy with the care my daughter recieved there. Thanks again!!!

Yes, Dr. Bottomfield is a great ped. I work at a day care and a lot of my parents use him. Dr. Ryan is a female Dr. and she is also good. You asked about Doctors to stay away from? I would definitely stay away from Dr. Vavich. He is a quack. I worked for a day care in the 80's and one of his patients were misdiagnosed that shouldn't of been and he died. He was only 18mths. So please stay away from him. Dr. Hardoin is also a good ped. Good luck!

Dr. Richard Hardoin is the best. I wouldn't trust my daughter to anyone else but him.

Dr. Bottenfield is the BEST!!!! He is in an office with Dr. Hardoin who is also great. They have 2 or 3 physician assistants and a nurse practitioner that are equally recommended.

I use Dr. Bottenfield, and have had no problems out of him or his staff. His office is really great because they have nurses who take calls all day to answer any concerns you have and they actually answer them, they don't automatically try to get you in for an appointment. Also, there are Physician's Assistants who work in his office, so if he is unavailable you can usually get in with one of them. I particularly like Amy Payne. If you have any other questions about him you can e-mail me at ____@____.com
