Dr. Annette Mackoul. She is a sweetheart and takes the time to get to know the child. Better than a large group where it's a new doctor every visit.

Dr Schiller is part of Lee memorial. I really didn't like any of the Lee physicians group which are part of Lee Memorial.
Elissa H. replied:
Dr Cossu owns his own practice and not a part of any group. Rare to find these days.

Dr Darryl Troast best you will ever find!!!!
Joni G. replied:
I go to Dr Julia Fashner at Lee Phys Group. She's fantastic. She even calls you personally to check up on you if you've been sick or have had a procedure done.
Joni G. replied:
Dr MacKoul is the best pediatrician.
Steven S. replied:
The problem I have with Lee physicians group is that I show up and they take my money within 1 minute of entering their door. When I go back to see my doctor, the nurse checks my vitals and just leaves. Next I see the doctor. She just looks at my chart, orders blood work again, says she will refill my prescriptions and that they will be e scripted to my pharmacy, listens to my heart and lungs and says see a you in a few months. Recently when I hurt myself and went to follow up from my injury (mind you I went to Lee Convenient Care right after for an x-ray), she just walks in and before any other exam just says well, if you are still in pain, I'm sending you for an MRI. She doesn't spend the time is my point. I just want someone who listens and actually cares.
My family and I will be moving to the area in October and will be needing a new pediatrician for my 3 kiddos. Ages 3, 1 and 3mos. We are military and on Tricare Prime....
Nadia G. replied:
We have Tricare Prime and go to Dr. Minick at Premier Care pediatrics here in Fishhawk. We really like them..
Mabel B. replied:
Dr Tappan and dr roman! Both amazing doctors.
Jessica E. replied:
I also recommend Pediatric Health Care Alliance. My children see Dr. Wallace and her like her a lot.
Rebecca P. replied:
Dr. Pruitt is the best.
Monica T. replied:
Dr Tappan and Dr Roman is who we use. 813-571-6800 they are at the corner of Lithia and FH. Very close to this area
Jaclyn N. replied:
Dr. Minick at Premier Care Pediatrics! He is fantastic with our girls.
Marcie H. replied:
Dr. Tappan at Pediatric Healthcare Alliance is always our first choice followed by Dr. Roman.
Kristen W. replied:
We love Dr Wallace and Dr. Tappan but like stated above, the only way that you will get out of Brandon clinic is if there is no room there when you arrive or you switch to standard. We were lucky 6 years ago.
Rcjlae D. replied:
I highly recommend dr Christopher Tappan at pediatric healthcare alliance for a primary pediatrician ! They are five minutes up the road
Megan B. replied:
We love the two doctors at Premier Care right here in the neighborhood! We have four little ones, one with special needs, and they have always been fantastic and very parent oriented. Our youngest goes to Shriners for his orthopedic needs. One of which is a clubbed foot. They have been awesome there!
Delia D. replied:
Dr Tappan, Dr. Martin, Dr. Wallace ARE THE BEST
Stephanie M. replied:
Have to throw in my two cents for Dr. Mankodi at Healthpoint. She was recommended by our realtor when we moved here, a great tip for us.
Michelle P. replied:
Dr Pruitt
Eryn B. replied:
Laurie Beth Spencer we use Dr. Roman and Dr. Tappan at Pediatric Health Care Alliance. They are the best. And super close.
#1 by FAR is Dr. Nancy Witham!! She is the best! We've had her for 9 years now and she will call me personally on a weekend to check on a sick child. So amazing and awesome and she lets you, as the parent, go with your gut on some things.
Ashley W. replied:
Dr Jones at physicians primary care and island coast pediatrics. Both amazing practices and pro breastfeeding!
Victoria O. replied:
Dr. Wiggins at PPC hes awesome. I totally love him
Katiee M. replied:
Dr Witham & Dr Petriniro (idk how to spell it) but I seen both of them till I turned 18 . they're great !
Priscilla C. replied:
Yes Fort Myers, FL' class='name_reco'>Dr. Pietroniro is amazing as well. He is in the same practice as Fort Myers, FL' class='name_reco'>Dr. Witham. It's Lee Physicians Group Pediatrics. They have an office in Lehigh or Fort Myers by Page Field.their number is 239-343-9888.:))
Looking for a pediatrician in estero. Recommendations
Abbe B. replied:
Lee physician group associates in pediatrics. 343-9888. Amy hicks nurse practioner is the best or dr Pietroniro are great!! I work there also so if I can be of any help please ask for me!
Kim W. replied:
Dr Pietroniro! He's great!
Jennifer H. replied:
we use Dr Troast and Dr Vince and Island Coast Peds in fort myers, but I believe they have an estero office!
Would you please recommend a pediatrician in Fort Myers?
Janice H. replied:
Dr Troast or any MD at Island Coast Pediatrics on Metro
Brianne M. replied:
For more "natural" Troast and his PA (Vince) with Island Coast, Jones with PPC (We also really like Susan Bengtsson one of the Nurse Practitioners with PPC). We see Dr. Shiller with Lee Physicians Peds and while not outwardly going the more natural route, he is not opposed to it either and is willing to listen to ideas and concerns without being condescending as so many are.
Amanda J. replied:
Dr Mackoul there in fort myers too
Scott G. replied:
Dr. Jones at PPC is the best ever!!! I meant it! Message me for questions
Pamela H. replied:
Dr. Berget at PPC is amazing.
Brooke F. replied:
PPC Dr. Bartlett!
Alicia H. replied:
Dr. Annette MacKoul at MacKoul Pediatrics in Ft Myers. She's been seeing my kids for 15 years! She listens. My Simone won't see any other dr!
Veron E. replied:
Dr Vince at Dr Troast (island Coast Peds) is so awesome.
Janet D. replied:
Island Coast Peds. Is where camp DeMarco goes... since birth. We have seen Troast, but our regular is Vince over there. They are awesome.
Kane F. replied:
Is Cape OK? I'd HIGHLY suggest Mackoul Pediatrics Cape Coral:\ Island Coast is good, too!
I'm Looking for a pediatrician who does western med but also appreciates and acknowledges homeopathic remedies. Any recommendations ?
Katie W. replied:
Troast and Vince at Island Coast Pediatrics have been amazing from day one with my crunchy granola parenting style. No vaccines since 6 months old and always comment about how great it is that she is still breast feeding. =}
Kari H. replied:
I third Dr. Troast. He is very accepting of our "alternative" choices. We love him! Also, talk to Suzanne (bootcamp instructor/sub), do you know her? I believe that she knows of a holistic doctor who may also value some western medicine???
Just found out my son is Gluten in tolerate so he was put on a strict gluten free diet from his pediatrician ....Doe anyone know of any good kid friendly gluten free...
Maggie M. replied:
I have some I can send- just an FYI all Pampered Chef seasonings and rubs are now Gluten free. Also my sister Melissa Wathen is gluten intolerant so she can give you a TON of tips. Oh and switch to King Arthur brand flour. They do not use GMO's ( genetically modified) grains which is the biggest culprit behind gluten intolerance.
Ilona W. replied:
Eric Foskey Shane
Melissa W. replied:
Ilona, King Arthur also has great gluten free baking flours. Also check out the Bob's Red Mill brand.
