Dr.Butch Edward Goldblatt or Dr. Byers Southlake Pediatrics982.2500.
Maggie D. replied:
Dr. Alice Mansell Hardy, South Trace Pediatrics
Christy S. replied:
Dr. Jolly at Greenvale in Alabaster.
Sarah S. replied:
Dr. Wolfe in Helena is wonderful. Dr. Wright at Greenvale Alabaster is phenomenal too. Some people may complain about the Greenvale Alabaster office, but we've never once had a problem with anyone there. Front desk staff, nurses and the doctors we've encountered there have been nothing short of fabulous.
Stephanie W. replied:
Dr. Wolfe at Wolfe Orthodontics(419-5562) is the best and Dr. Andrew McCowan at Southlake Pediatrics(982-2500)! If you need a great pediatric dentist, check out Dr. Mike Anglin in Hoover (988-9800)
Tina B. replied:
Dr. Babi on Morgan Rd is the best. I've worked at several pediatric offices and he is by far the best. Both of my kids go there.
Jodi C. replied:
Dr Schroeder at Alabaster pediatrics and we love Dr Denny at Oak Mountain ortho...she has an office right by Publix and one in Pelham.
Anthony W. replied:
No doubts....Dr. Carter! I'm picky with four kids......Hoover.
Angela B. replied:

Amy D. replied:
My son sees Dr Byers at southlake. She us amazing! We use Dr mccowan as our back up. I personally do not care for Dr goldblatt
Sarah S. replied:
There's Greenvale Alabaster, which is right by Shelby Baptist on 31. Several people, including myself, have recommended docs there. Although Hoover has plenty of fine pediatricians too! Alabaster pediatrics is not too far from Greenvale Alabaster as well.
Sandra B. replied:
Another recommendation for Dr. Jolly in Alabaster at Greenvale. Super good with kids, catches problems early. I have three kids including a special needs daughter and he has been outstanding with all of them. Dr. Denney is my choice for orthodontics. Her Helena office is super convenient and she is really nice.
Emmanuel S. replied:
I totally say Dr Babi@Babi Pediatrics 459....very convenient and the entire staff will love you and your children. He takes time to shiw/explain to you. Also, as for the orthodontist
Emmanuel S. replied:
Oops, posted too fast! Dr. Jeff Backus in Hoover!

We use Dr. Mike Anglin for a pediatric dentist and love him. Find "Hewy Nosleep" on Facebook he has a daily blog about Helena. If your neighborhood does not have a pool "Gobblers Knob" or the Pelham YMCA are options. There is also A water park called Alabama Adventure about 30 min away. Helena is a great place to live. The bowling ally is Pelham has a "kids bowl free" summer program. Two local theaters have summer kids flicks movies two days a week.
