Okay. I have a list of pediatric dentists in our network. The problem is, there's like 30. So, who does everyone recommend for the BEST pediatric dentist in the area?...

Nicole C. replied:
Dr. Halum in Highland is fantastic! http://happychompers.com/
Loren G. replied:
Karr is not in network but Dr. Dunlop is so I'm going to call her. I have 2 1/2 year old twins. One has an extra tooth on top and the other one has a complete under bite. But they're afraid of the doctor so I'm hoping Dr. Dunlop can ease their fears.

Chrissy R. replied:
Dr. Tyree in Munster is a no . I have a 6 year old and i wasnt impressed with their staff. Never even met the doctor. We were referred by our regular dentist for my child to get a spacer. They took my child in and didn't let me come in the room at all. They could have done anything to him. The receptionist ladies are a bit confused also. Not very friendly either.
Melissa H. replied:
We started at south shore smiles on 41 in St. John. We see Dr. Dunlpo. It's a brand new, beautiful office!

Crystal M. replied:
Oloade at Franscian Clinic in St.John. hes an awesome dr.
Sarah C. replied:
I used to go to Gold's office and had problems all the time too. I switched to Dr. Omiyosoye A. Ololade, MD at the Franciscian Clinic and St. John. I love him!! And they always try to get you in. If he is not there that day they will try to get you in with his partner.
Erica M. replied:
I had the same exact problem with Dr. Gold. However, I just switched to Dr. Vicente at the same practice. I can get into her ANYTIME my kids are sick. Plus you NEVER have to wait with her.

Angie F. replied:
We see Dr. Alsakaji in St John at Community Outpatient. He is in with Dr. Dershowitz and NP Kieren. They are Healthy Kids Care Center. I have 3 kids, and I've never had a problem getting any of them same day usually within 3 hours. They've saved me numerous trips to the ER by ordering tests and sending us downstairs to outpatient. The receptionists and nurses also rock. (219) 226-2380 is the number. They also see patients in Schererville.
Melissa W. replied:
Dr. Uzelac in Schererville
Amy K. replied:
I just switched pediatricians last week. Was able to get in to see a doctor who is one of the partners (and not a nurse) the day I called. Dr. Crill shares an office with Dr. John in Dyer. Dr. Crill is younger (that's who we saw) and Dr. John is more seasoned. My friend highly recommended both of them. I switched for the same reason. Their office is in that plaza on Exchange near Sheffield. Dr. Crill was kind, informative, and didn't rush us in any way. We were very pleased.
Jennifer S. replied:
Kids First Pediatrics on 30. Dr. Stroman is amazing! I trust no one else. The staff is friendly and knowledgeable and 99% of the time I can get a same day sick visit.

I went to Dr. Pulver as a kid, never had more than cleanings back then but he and his staff are great with kids IMO. My kids still haven't been to the dentist but it's where I plan on sending them.
Nicole A. replied:
Dr. Mattingly in town is the best dentist- lots and lots and lots of kids go there including my own and haven't been happier.

I just got back from seeing Dr.Vicente so she's definitely still at northpoint. Quick responses when calling in about a question and easy to schedule appointments. Got to my appointment early today and got called back within 2 minutes of sitting down. Dr. Gold at northpoint is also great. She was on call when I had to take my daughter to the er and had an overnight stay. Very nice lady.

Angela P. replied:
Dr. Khattri is the best! My son contracted the Entro virus in September and she not only diagnosed him but encouraged me to send him to a chicago children's hospital. She made the arrangements and called up there at the hospital in Chicago every day to see how he was doing!
Gina M. replied:
Dr. LISA Gold.. she treated my son for 10-11 years for same diagnosis. . Awesome lady !!!
Any reccomendations for a good pediatrician for a 2 year old? Currently at crown point pediatrics looking for other options. Thank you
Jaimie S. replied:
Kids First on 30 in Dyer! They have several doctors but we see Dr. Albright. Same day sick appointments, sick and well waiting rooms, online portal to view and print health and shot records without going to the office, late hours, can talk to a nurse without having to wait for a call back, free wifi, and you even get your doctor's cell number for after hour emergencies that don't warrant an er visit.
Channing C. replied:
I didnt care for Kids First. We switched to Dr John at Dyer Family South- office staff there kinda sucks but Dr. John is great.
Beccy M. replied:
Dr. Ololade at the Hammond Clinic in St.John, he is really great with kids and his nurses are as well .
Dawn U. replied:
Dr. Reena John in Dyer is the BOMB. She was awesome with my kids when they were little

Dr. Dershewitz at Healthy Kids in St. John! My son loves him and he is very thorough and kind. My son is almost 12 and has been seeing him since birth. Can't recommend enough!
Looking for kids dentist and doctor for kids in lowell or close by
Jennifer R. replied:
Dr. Berquist in Crown Point us a general dentist for the whole family and they're amazing with kids.
Jaimie S. replied:
For a pediatrician, we use Kids First in Dyer. All of their doctors are great but we usually see Dr. Nancy Albright. They have late hours, same day sick appointments, a nurse available to talk to with no hold, sick and well waiting rooms, and they provide you with the doctor's cell number for after hour emergencies. For a pediatric dentist, we use Dr. Halum at Children's Dentistry in Highland. They are great with kids and have the newest technology to make appointments easy on the kids. Both are well worth the drive.
Looking for a family practitioner who uses a more natural and holistic approach. There was a CNP at Green Pediatrics but it looks by their site that she is gone. Anyone...
Becca B. replied:
Dr Rena John in dyer is great and she has recommended the chiropractor, an amber teething necklace and certain essential oils to me.
Victoria R. replied:
Dr Bilijana Uzelac. She is amazing.
Jill T. replied:
If you are looking for any kind of natural pain relief, either now or later, you should consider Cranial Sacral Therapy and Reiki with my cousin Angela Rauscher Lukas. It's incredible and will change your life!
Amy R. replied:
Green Pediatrics has been our place, we even went to Uzelac when she was still part of fransician and followed her to her own practice. Love it and so much trust! And if your looking for yourself Dr Karen Patterson in Winfield is the same!
Anyone have any good suggestion for a pediatrician?? I'm not feeling the new LCHC...Need a better plac with good doctors!!!
Paula S. replied:
Dr Rekha Quazi drum hill
Lisa S. replied:
My kids go to Lowell Pedi, to Dr. Olszack, she is TRUELY my favorite. Lowell Pediatrics also have a muchhh cleaner office in Westford which I 100% prefer over the Lowell office (which Westford sounds far but it's not). I hope to visit soon, sorry the weather messed us all up and there's suppose to be more this weekend:( ! I hope the little family is doing AMAZING!!! <3 .

I go to dr. Mark Gilchrist and sevigny in Chelmsford. At 4 meetinghouse road
Looking for recommendations for pediatrician that specializes in ADD/ADHD and behavior disorders that does alternatives to medication. Also a pediatric neuropsychologist.
Cindy D. replied:
I'm not sure if anyone in the area. Dr Kramer with Medical Specialists in Merrillville is an excellent pediatrician. You could go there. My girls are older now but he did refer one of them to a pediatric cardiologist from University of Chicago and he came out to Crown Point. Also an excellent resource is Lisa Carnegie Newcomb I would ask her. She has a wealth of knowledge.
Cindy D. replied:
Dr Paul Dunn in Oak Park was the absolute best but he passed away in March
Vicki W. replied:
Healing Arts Center in Valpo does alternatives to medication
Dana S. replied:
Dr. Uzelac in Schererville is great with that kind of thing. She helped treat a friends little girl who was "diagnosed" with ADD/ADHD by the schools. She is very homeopathic but also will prescribe if absolutely necessary.

Emma A. replied:
My GP retired, but I still schedule all my appts back home at Harvard Vanguard. That's where my Pedi and all my specialists were/are too, and I love being part of a network that can access my chart.
Colleen G. replied:
We go to Chelmsford Family Practice in Vinyl Square for pretty much that very reason. I want the kids to be able to stay with their doc as long as they choose to. Our entire family has the same PCP and it's the same one Craig has had his whole life. I also went to a family practice growing up and only left because our amazing N.P. who were always saw when we went got a job at Children's in Boston. Otherwise I'd absolutely still be driving to Tewksbury to stay with her.
