We're having our first child in a few weeks and I am in desperate need of a recommendation of a great pediatrician in the North Arlington Heights area. The challenge is finding someone who takes Tricare, the government insurance. Any suggestions? I hate to pick one at random and hope they're good.

What can I do next?

My sister and I go to Arlington Pediatrics 3325 N Arlington Hts RD Suite 100A. We both love them, they go to Northwest Community hospital, Children's, St Alexius, and Sherman. They just added two new Docs and expanded their practice to the Algonquin area. They send a monthly newsletter and have a web site. I never wait more then 5 minutes and they have fit my daughter and my nephew in quickly with potential problems that were not yet emergencies. Number is ###-###-#### www.arlingtonpediatrics.com I think Dr Brottman is liked best but I really like his partners, Dr Santiago and Dr Seskiewicz also, they are all very good. Hope this helps, Congrats and good luck

We go to North Suburban Pediatrics, S.C. in Buffalo Grove. Our ped is Virginia DePaul who we love but have had great experiences with several of the other docs in the practice (10 all together). Everyone in the office is very friendly and helpful. We got the referral from our realator when we moved to the area. Good luck in your search.

North Arlington Pediatrics is awesome! They are very good about same day appointments for sick kids. Perscriptions over the phone for minor things like eye infections. The doctor on call gets back to you timely!!!! I had to call during Christmas because my daughter got an eye infection and they called back and handled it within an hour. Great pepole to work with! ###-###-####. Arlington Heights Rd. Just south of Palatine road.

I have a 3 month old so I don't have many visits in, but I do like Arlington Pediatrics in Arlington heights on Arlington Heights Road near Dundee Road.I like Dr. Santiago (young , smart female) and Dr. Brottman (older, funny, experienced male). I think Dr. Grady is okay (young female) and will meet the other female dr. at the next visit. See if they take your insurance - ###-###-####.

We go to Dr. Stephanie Baker. She is in Arlington Heights, just down the street from Buffalo Grove High School. We love her. She also has one other male doctor in the practice, and he is awesome! Let me know if you want her phone number.
Have fun with the new baby!

Dr George Goodlow was great. He might be retired bt he was in a practice with 2 to 3 other doctors. They were all wonderful. We followed Dr Goodlow from another practice thats how much we liked him. Our insurance changed so we had to switch doctors otherwise we would still be going there. Now we use Dr Baker her # is ###-###-#### they have an office in Lincolnshire and I can't remember the second location. They are great also and one nice thing they have sick hours on Sundays and Holidays which never fails thats when the kids get sick and most offices are closed. Good luck, Jen

I'll add a third vote for Arlington Pediatrics. We drive up from SW Palatine and love all three of the current docs, especially Dr. Seskiewitz (sp?). We were referred by a work colleague and liked what we learned when we met with them. They'll let you "interview" them for free, unlike some others that we checked into initially. It also sounds like it might be the closest one to you. Good luck deciding.
