We love Dr. Andrea Mertz at Boulder Medical Center! Amazing and patient!!!
Jobea M. replied:
Dr Wynett. At avista family medical. Next to Walgreens!!
Kiri M. replied:
Dr. Bucknam with Cornerstone Pediatrics! The whole practice is fantastic!
Porter J. replied:
Another vote for Cornerstone... We usually see Dr. Miller but all the docs are great. For us, Dr. Palazarri wasn't a good fit

Heather, if you are comfortable telling me, I'd love to know the issues with CV Peds. We go there but recently I am hearing more and more people are unhappy there. You can PM me. Just wondering if we should look to switch also. My experience has been so so depending on which Dr we see.
Heather K. replied:
It's more the personality of the place. Definitely NOT a neighborhood small-town practice! Only Dr. G is good. Constant changes in front desk. Each one more snotty than the one before. I Needed papers filled out for camp and now I'm told its 5 days to get them when countless other times they've just called me when they're done... Usually in 24 hours. Said they won't fill out my kids' paperwork since they haven't had specifically "wellness visits" recently. When I tried to schedule one, they are booked out for at least three weeks. No kindness or apology for being booked. Almost rude. Basically, a poor way to run a business. Ps - the other guy doc, Wright? - was a jerk to my sweet, shy kid the first time I met him. I refuse to take appointments with him. I'm done.
Mary S. replied:
I second Dr Palazzari!
Kelley A. replied:
Heather-I wholeheartedly agree about Dr Wright. I've had 2 appts w/ him and his bedside manner is horrible. I feel like he doesn't even like kids. I won't see him either. Dr G and both nurse practitioners are awesome, though, at CV Peds. I'm a nurse and really picky about healthcare providers. Dr Wynett is awesome at Avista by Walgreen's!
Shannon K. replied:
Yes! She recently finished her fellowship at Case Western! What I love is how she talks to my boys about school and sports and friends! She wants them to know she can listen to make them better! Amazing!!! https://www.bouldermedicalcenter.com/medical-providers/andrea-mertz/

Arvada Pediatrics in Broomfield.
Paula O. replied:
This will sound crazy, but I still take my kids to Dr Dacey at Pediatrics 5280 in Castle Rock (we moved from CR last year). We did Broomfield Pediatrics before that when we lived in Thornton, and while they were ok and "meh", the practice as a whole didn't give me a comforting feeling as a new mama. I think you are doing the right thing by looking for a new practice for sure!
Sharon K. replied:
For sure the best is Cornerstone Pediatrics at Avista in Louisville
Jenny D. replied:
Boulder Med Center Pediatrics... 303-938-4700 at Boulder Foothills Hospital on Arapahoe. When you are looking for a pediatrician you need to look at the whole group because rarely is your child sick when your primary is available. All the Docs are great. I work with them. I am a neonatal nurse practitioner for Children's Hospital Colorado and have taken my kids there for 15 years. Love them!!
Kelly M. replied:
Love the docs (esp dr Jordan) at cornerstone. However, SO fed up with absurdly long wait times. The little Avista satellite office by Walgreens/Erie rec. is fantastic and never a long wait. Dr Daruud is fab, not sure if he sees littles though but it sounds like someone above has a pediatrician there.

Dr Bruce Martin at Centura health. The new building by I-25 exit
Ashley K. replied:
We really love Dr. Meredith at Coal Creek family medicine in Louisville right next to Avista.

Dr. Gonzalez at Broomfield Pediatrics on 144 th is AMAZING!

Cornerstone Peds
Julie E. replied:
We love Dr Adam Palazzari at Lafayette Pediatrics. The office staff and the NP, Maura, are fantastic as well. Dr P is kind, gental, present, and available. I never feel like he's rushed or distracted. Also, he won the Best Pediatrician award from Broomfield's Talk of the Town.
Boulder peeps: does anyone have a general practice family doctor that they love? Someone who communicates well, is thorough, and is reasonably organized? Thanks!
I do. I have an awesome female GP who just moved from Oregon so she is still building her panel of patients (think availability) Her name is Dr. Robin Nordstrom Lane. She is great and since I work in Medicine I am pretty picky about providers I see.
Julie F. replied:
Dr. Karin Susskind - the BEST!!!
Angel D. replied:
Karin Susskinf at BMC. She's awesome!

I second the recommendations for Dr. Samuelson and Centennial Valley Pediatrics.
Vanessa H. replied:
I go to Dr. Grace Fan at Longmont clinic, she is great!
Heidi H. replied:
We really like Dr. Melissa Serlin at Boulder Valley Medical Center. Great with kids, was a pedi ER dr before doing private practice, and I like her friendly and approachable, yet no nonsense, style with parents.
Janissa S. replied:
I love Dr. Fries.... He really seems to care about his kiddos. He is in Boulder... Call me if you need more recommendations I know every pediatrician in the state for work!
