We recently moved to the area (Downingtown) from out of state. I am looking for a Pediatrician and Dentist for my children. I prefer a Doctor within a larger practice (3 or 4 other Drs.)I'd like a Doctor thats knowledgeable and very competent, but also warm and friendly towards the children he or she treats. We came from a Children's Dentist that catered to the whole child. The waiting room and treatment area were more like a play area (for big and little kids), and the treatments and service were very professional. My kids actually enjoyed going there! I'm looking for something similiar.
Thank you in advance for any advice or reccommendations you may have!
Tickle Tooth Dentist is wonderful! They are in Exton, across from Babies R Us in Exton's Main Street shopping center. The waiting room has a bunch of toys and even a horse that the kids can ride. They are great with the kids and so friendly. Good luck!
Two years ago we moved from Downingtown to Pottstown and elected to keep our peditrician and our pediatric dentist because we are so pleased. I have a 6 year old daughter and a 3 year old son. They are patients of Chester County Pediatrics off of Arrandale Blvd in Exton. Our favorite of the practice is Dr. Faber. He sometimes has a bit too much energy for my taste my he honestly cares about my children. This past New Years I finally wrote him an overdue thank you note. (It is not uncommon for him to follow up with us via telephone when one of the kids has been sick.) We take the kids to Loretta Healy, DDS of the Oaklands Corporate Center. It is a very kid friendly set up. Good Luck.
My Ped is a little far for you but our dentist Chester County Denistry for Children is great...they have an office in West Chester near the hospital but also one in Lionville..Dr Jeff Mellini is our dentist, he is really nice and the office is kid friendly. My children have no problem going to the "big kid" room for their check ups..they even get to watch cartoons while it is being done.
I wouldn't take them anywhere else...and I have only ever had to wait about 5 minutes for them to go back, don't think we have ever been in the office for more than 45 minutes to an hour total start to finish and that includes setting up the next appt. I wouldn't take them anywhere else.
Hi H.! Welcome to the area!
I don't use a pediatric dentist, but I would definitely recommend Chester County Pediatrics for your physician. There are 4-6 doctors, all very nice, well run practice, EXCELLENT hours (including early morning, late evening, and saturdays). They are on Rt. 30 in Exton (just down the street from Lowe's). ###-###-####.
I noticed your post didn't mention what area you are from, you might want to repost and include that. I was able to find that you are in Downingtown by clicking on your name.
I have had very good experiences with Chester Springs Family Dentistry, and so has my cousin whose 6 year old son has had a lot of work done there and was very pleased. They are located right off Route 100 in Eagle, near the Eagle Tavern.

I love my pediatrician but he/they are in Phoenixville, probably a bit of a hike for you. Penn Care for Kids, specifically Dr. Schwartz.
Welcome to the area and good luck! Feel free to contact me if you have any other questions about the area.
