Hi ladies, Does anyone know who the best pediatrician would be in the area?
Jennifer S. replied:
We love Laura Nowacki. She also has a PA, Jen, who we love as well. If you have any questions in particular, you can pm me.
Karyn H. replied:
Dr. Laura Nowacki is amazing. We love her. She has taken the time to really talk to the kids whenever we visit, even on sick visits.
Monica M. replied:
Just a few thoughts: it's important to jive with your pedi, in terms of your lifestyle, parenting choices, etc. A pedi who will respect your parenting decisions, and know that you're doing the very best as a mum is so important. My daughter co-slept with us until she was 18 months old. Our first pedi, Dr. Isgut (who has since retired from pediatrics), didn't even bat an eye when we told him this (and even said, "do it, it's only natural!"), and when we told Nowacki, she just smiled. We space some of the vaccines apart, and our decisions were respected. Nowacki is not an alarmist Doctor; she tends to go with a more natural and 'see how it goes' approach, which we like.
Andrea B. replied:
Dr Marilyn Smith, Canterbury Pediatrics in Monroe, absolutely fabulous.
Mirelle C. replied:
I agree with the Monica I. Maciog, it depends on what you are looking for. We had to change pediatricians when our first child was 2 months old for that reason. We love our practice now. We go to see Dr. Mortera, Dr. Soriano, and Dr Beris in Southbury pediatrics. Our children are mixed race and so they do not follow the standard growth curves but are perfectly healthy. Dr. Mortera and Soriano understand that. Dr Beris is one of the best diagnosticians in the area and is very well regarded in the medical field.
Danielle B. replied:
We love Dr Beris in Southbury.
Lisa T. replied:
Dr Nowacki or Dr Auerbach. Both amazing Peds who care a lot about their families & our town:)
Suzanne D. replied:
We were one of Dr. Beris's first patients...my kids are now 23 and 25 and we went to her until the day her practice no longer considered my boys "kids" !
Hope S. replied:
Another vote for Dr. Nowacki! She's great.
MaryBeth E. replied:
Auerbach is great and he and nowacki used to practice together - both are great choices. Dr. Beris is a family friend and amazing Dr. Can't go wrong with her either!
Amanda T. replied:
We just started with Dr Sterry in Danbury. She lives in Newtown. We love her! She has a very calming demeanor. She also has small children herself so you know she's always up to date on the latest research and recommendations.

Dr. Laura Nowacki is fantastic!
Karen W. replied:
Dr Nowacki is great but the smartest pediatrician is Dr Golonbock from Center for Pediatric Medicine. He is my office's medical director and I can tell you the guy is brilliant.
Karin L. replied:
Dr. Mortera in Southbury is awesome!
Beth G. replied:
LOVE Dr. Mortera! She diagnosed my daughter with something after another had missed it. The whole practice is great, open every day with great hours.
