Does anyone have a great family doctor they recommend in the Lehi/American Fork area? And a pediatrician??
Haylee S. replied:
I love my pediatrician! He's right by the AF hospital. Dr Ryan Wilcox. You can see more about him at http://mormon.org/ryan.

We take our kids to Alpine Pediatrics. They are in AF, Lehi and Saratoga Springs. They are really good with our kids....and they can always get us in the same day if we need it. We like them so much that we've driven from Orem for 11 years to see them. IN the Lehi Office they have Dr. Knorr and Dr. Whiting & Dr Vargo all Incredible. Here is their site.... http://www.alpinepeds.com/
Jackson L. replied:
BTW....these doctors have the best bedside manner with kids I've ever seen. Knorr and Whiting came to the hospital for all of our kids....and Dr. Vargo treated Halle after she took a really hard fall and we were really worried. Super calming for the kids and us...they take time to explain stuff and really help the kids feel comfortable.

I'm looking for a pediatrician for Evan and I've heard nothing but good things about Alpine Pediatrics.
Lisa W. replied:
Love Dr Whiting at Alpine Pediatrics and LOVE the after hours at their sister office up by the AF hospital!!
My friends in the Lehi area: I need to start looking for a pediatrician. Whom do you recommend and why?
Natalie F. replied:
Another Alpine Peds voter. I worked for them for lots of years & most people were happy with any of the drs. They have an office in Saratoga right by the smiths, In Lehi also right by smiths marketplace & the main (biggest office) is in PG on the AF hospital road. They have after hours M-F 6-10 & sat 9-5. I like that even in after hours they can access your child's chart & that AH is always at their building. Other practices have AH but also sometimes you may have to drive a good distance to the office of the dr on call. We most often see the PA Jeff Abram in PG..He's my bother from another mother. If you want Lehi.. Dr Brett Knorr & D.Todd whiting are there along with some other PA's. I'd be happy to talk to you if you have any other?'s I'm so very excited for you!! www.alpinepeds.com

We love Alpine Peds. I would recommend almost any of them, but our favorite is Dr. Alba.
Amanda M. replied:
Dr. Wise. He just joined north Valley pediatrics. He has been ours since he came to Utah, almost 11 years. He is the most patient dr I have ever met. He takes his time and listens to you. He also does all of his charting right in front of you. I love it because as he is charting, he will think about other things and is right there to ask you questions. It also gives you time to ask him or add anything you forgot! We lucked out by getting him. He is the one that has gotten all my kids the right care they needed as they needed it. He set up the life flight for my baby when he had RSV. He felt there was more to my daughter heart murmur and sent us right to a cardiologist. He was right, she had a heart defect. The on call dr that saw me when I had her passed it off as nothing. When he thinks something is serious, he never hesitates. Just plan awesome!
Kristine T. replied:
I really like most of the drs at Alpine Peds
Tim-Crystal H. replied:
Brett Knorr at alpine peds! Very patient, knowledgeable and awesome with both kids and parents!
Jen M. replied:
Dr. Wilcox in American Fork. We love him so much, it's worth the drive from Orem! He's that good!
Roslin F. replied:
Dr Gustin- altaview ped. I would drive to the ends of the earth for her. She takes care of all my kids!
Kristi A. replied:
We LOVE Dr Feindt at Willowcreek Pediatrics in Draper. She is amazing and only about 10 minutes away. She came highly recommended by all the nurses at Intermountain Medical Center.
Christine G. replied:
One more endorsement for Alpine Peds. I've also been happy with any of the drs we have seen there but we absolutely love Dr. Arnold! I made the drive to see him even when we lived in Draper.
Reaching out to South Jordan Residents or surrounding areas.
Looking for the following recommendations
-Pediatrician
-Children's dentist
-Preschool (preferably...
Tammy B. replied:
I think there is a Montessori out there. We lived close to S. Jordan before and went to Southridge pediatrics with Kristina Esham. Lots of people out there like her and Dr. Duffy in the Riverton Hospital (not sure how far into S. Jordan you are). Also a great preschool out that direction is http://coppercreekpreschool.weebly.com/. As a teacher myself, I highly approve! I sent Caden there for a summer camp when I wasn't teaching and loved her! She's hard to get into so you would need to call asap.
Merlaine W. replied:
Our pediatrician is Dave Lofgren. He is at 1300 E and 90 th South. We moved to Farmington and I still go to him. LOVE him!!! I will send you his # if you want.
Jessie N. replied:
I love Southpoint Pediatrics. It's on 9000 South and 1300 West. We see Dr. Bosworth, but I've never seen a doctor there that I didn't like.
Heather P. replied:
We have always danced at Extravadance in West Jordan. Pediatric Dentist, Stevenson Pediatric Dental off of Bangerter and 12300 So. and I drive to Draper to Wasatch Pediatrics for a pediatrician. Preschool has been a long time around this house but I need to find one too in the South Jordan area.
Rochelle L. replied:
I second Stevenson Pediatric, he's great. We miss him even more after our visit to the dentist today. Grace went to Learning Dynamics for preschool and was reading at 4. We absolutely love that preschool and the teachers there.
We need recommendations for a pediatrician and/or family doctor. Ours is retiring in June, close to Lehi or American Fork ideally.
Elizabeth P. replied:
I LOVE my pediatrician..Dr Ryan wilcox next to the af hospital.
Kelsey T. replied:
We use Dr. Wilcox as well and LOVE LOVE him!
Romney S. replied:
Dr Wise is awesome!
Mindy K. replied:
We go to Dr Cox at Alpine Pediatric, just south of the AF hospital. We love them.
Kendall S. replied:
We go to Dr Wilcox as well, the only downside is I don't like anyone else in his practice. So if we need to go and it's after hours or on call, and he isn't the Dr, we either wait or go to the emergency room.
Becky B. replied:
We go to Dr. Weipert in AF. I really like him. He's on the same road as the hospital, just north.
Becky B. replied:
If you want a family Dr go to Dr Willis at Tri city, same road as the hospital. That's where everything is! He's a great Dr and I know him personally. He's Marc's sisters father-in-law. Love him!
Mindy K. replied:
Dr Cox is just a pediatrician - but Dr Willis is awesome! I went to him growing up ... he used to be really hard to get into, but I'm not sure if he's so busy now.
Lehi area friends! Do you have a favorite pediatrician? Or family Doctor? How about dentist, pediatric or the normal kind?
Stephanie M. replied:
We love our dentists, our pediatric dentist is Dr Richter at Dry Creek pediatric, and Tim and I go to David Babcock at Bluffdale dental, but they would be great with kids too. We really like our pediatrician, but she's in Riverton. Her name is Marisa Nagle at Southridge pediatrics.
