Hi Ladies,
I just moved to Danbury, and need to find a really good PED. Extended hours would be great. Weekends and evenings. And if there's one that's not pushy.I definitely believe in natural medicine.
Thanks in advance.
N.

What can I do next?

I am going to second Pediatric Associates in Danbury on Germantown Road. They are a wonderful group. My daughter sees Dr. Cohen and he is wonderful. I highly recommend him! He is very knowledgeable and very open minded. I just had a favorable conversation with him the other day about a vegetarian diet (my daughter doesn't like meat - like her mother!)
Good luck!

Hi N.. I have 2 kids and I take them to the Mt Kisco Medical Group. I know Mt Kisco is probably about 30-40 minutes away from you but in my opinion its worth the ride. The physicians are excellent and as a matter of fact mine and my husbands doctors are there too. They do have an office in Carmel which would be a little close for you and its a straight shoot west on I-84. Hope this helps. By the way, where in Ireland are you from? My maiden name was Cassidy : )

I go to Clair Free in Brookfield, ###-###-####. But the her phone service off hours is great. No extended hours but she is very laid back and very good about my no vacination stance. I know a couple other wholistic doctors in the area too if you are ever looking for a referral.

I've been taking my kids to Pediatric Associates in Danbury for 15 years. ( I even went to them when I was a kid!) They are all wonderful. I love that they have weekend/ holiday hours in case of an emergency and they are open late in the evenings as well. I also love how they have nurses available if you need to call with a question or concern. I can't say enough about them. Good luck and welcome to Danbury!

Hi N.,
I don't know how far you wan to travel but I love my ped. Dr. Mortera in Newtown. The office is the same road that Walmart is on just farther up past target. She also has another doctor in the office with her. All my kids have gone there since birth and we can always get in when ever we need to. I am not totally sure about hours but they are good with on call and they are associated with Danbury Hospital. The # is ###-###-#### if you are interested. Goodluck!
