Seeking pediatrician recommendations....
When we moved here we decided on Growing Child because everyone raved about a particular doctor and their experiences there. Fast forward through three visits and we have yet to see the doctor we hoped for (granted one of the three visits was a Saturday, so that one is understandable), have had billing issues resulting in many phone calls with their office and Blue Cross because the data entry at the office had my son as a female and my husband's (policyholder) name spelled wrong, and everytime I call I listen to a loop recording about. 5-8 minute hold time before being dumped in a robotic call center.
What I'm looking for is a small one doctor practice where I can build a relationship with someone who knows my kids, their histories, their allergies, etc. When I call, I'd like a human being to be the first point of contact. Preferably one I can build a relationship with.
Our ped in Florida had a total staff of 6... One doctor.... I am looking for human connection and continuity of care.
Thanks in advance for your recommendations!
