I'm not sure about a doctor since we are in the Air Force and just use the military doctors but I do have a good playgroup. If you go to meetup.com and go to the Hip Mamas group in Albuquerque you will find a great group. It is $4 a year and we do so many different activites. Go to the zoo, Bounce-u, candy making places, sometimes even playgroups at different peoples houses. I've only been a memeber for a few months but I have met some nice moms and my son enjoys the group as well.

The day I delivered my (now 3 years old) little girl, a nurse and a midwife told me that they take their children to Dr. Jurgen Upplegger. I said, "Thank you, that sounds great, I'll be sure to set up an appointment with him."
The midwife said that he likes to see all "his babies" as soon as possible... so early the next morning, he was in my hospital room checking out my baby girl!

He was awesome. He has a very thick German accent, a very cheerful demeanor, a kind face and he's FAST!
During each of her shots, my little girl didn't have a chance to begin crying until he was out of the room.
Which of course I loved!

Any little emergency that I'd have, I could call him at the office or even at home, and he'd immediately call in a prescription for anything needed... (first stuffy nose, first red eye, etc.)

Although I've never seen another pediatrician to compare him with, I don't see myself switching unless he stops practicing.

Here's his information if you decide to check him out.

I love our pediatrician! He actually calls us (himself!) to follow up on things. His name is Dr. David Allison with After Hours Pediatrics. The group is great too because they have extended hours so you have less trips to urgent care on nights and weekends.

Hi N.! I have tried several pediatricians and I found the most wonderful pediatrician!! His name is Dr. Mosman and he is located at Albuquerque Pediatrics on Constitution behind Kaseman Hospital. He is so wonderful with kids and is also great with parents! :) He always gives out great advice if you need it and they are on call 24 hours if you need them for advice during the nights when little ones so often get sick. Hope that helps and good luck!!! :)

Hi, I like Dr Koil too. Actually, all the doctors that my kids have seen in after hours pediatrics have been wonderful. There is hardly any waiting time too! Good luck.

My daughter sees Dr. Koil he is at after hours pediatrics on montgomery and moon. I like it here because they are open late hours and weekends. If she sick I can take her there instead of an urgernt care. They also take most insurances.

He's the best.
