Hello,
We will soon be relocating from Philadephia to Avon, OH. We know nothing about the area. I am looking for a great pediatrician in the Avon area and am willing to drive 15 minutes or so from Avon. Things that are important to us: good hours, ease of being seen, nurses available for questions, affiliation with one of the big hospitals (Rainbow Babies has been recommended to me), and, of course, caring, talented doctors who listen. Any advice is appreciated!
Thanks!
We love Comprehensive Pediatrics located just into Westlake on Detroit Road (right near Crocker Park). They have 6 Dr.'s, several nurse practitioners as well as nurses to handle questions/concerns over the phone. ###-###-####
I have 2 girls and we see Dr. Arora (a female Dr.) but all of the Pediatrician's there seem great. Our other favorite is Dr. Occhionero (male Dr.)
Good luck with your move!
Try Westshore Primary Care. They are right off of 83 and are wonderful. I switched over to them about 3-4 years ago and I wont go any where else! They are affiliated with St. John's Westshore hospital in westlake and are so much better than any of the lorain/elyria hospitals here! The phone number for them is ###-###-#### my family sees Dr. Rish. He's a family doctor and is wonderful with the kids. He actually plays with them and is basicly a big kid himself. and you can actually sit down and talk to him and he will tell you things straight forward and he's willing to help with anything and everything needed medically!
Hi A.. Good luck with your move! Avon is a nice area. I'm sure you will like it there. Although I don't go to her (only becasue she is not covered under my insureance plan, otherwise I would) I have heard several of my friends rave about Dr. Vankeuls. ###-###-####.
I have been trying to organize a weekend playgroup and have met up with several other girls and most seem to be close to that area. If you are interested when you get here, let me know. We would be happy to have you join us.
I would recommend Comprehensive Pediatrics in Westlake. They are located right off the Crocker/Basset exit on 90E.
I have a nine month old daughter and they have been wonderful! They have both a sick and well waiting area that includes hours up to 7:30 as well as Saturday hours. We see Dr. Graber and I can't say enough about her. I have also used the on call nurse service several times and they are timely and accurate.
Good luck with your search.

Hi A.!
I too highly recommend Comprehensive Pediatrics in Westlake. I also live in Avon and all 3 of my children go there. The staff is always pleasant and I am always able to get in right away if one of my kids is sick. All of my children see Dr Scot Occhionero. He is very friendly and all of my children like him. I would also recommend Dr Arora, but I have liked all of the doctors and nurses that I have met there.
Good luck and welcome to Avon. You didn't say how old your girls are. If they are pre-K you should look into joining the Avon Preschool Parents Club. It is a great way for you to meet other families in the area. They sponser a lot of great get togethers during the year and organize fun field trips and parties for the kids.
