Hello Ladies,

We just moved to Harrisburg from Texas. And now we need to find a new pediatrician for my 9 month old son. We had a great Ped in Texas. We're now living in Lower Paxton area if that helps.

Thanks in Advance

What can I do next?

I, also, recommend the University Physician's Group on Hope Dr. in Hershey. It is well worth the drive, and everything can be done through Hershey hospital, if ever needed. My boys see Dr. Paul, and he is fantastic! My twins were diagnosed with a rare disease many years ago, and the odds of finding a dr who knew anything about it was going to be difficult. I planned a pre-visit with the office, so that I could introduce the boys to the dr and the office, and explain what I knew about the disease. Dr. Paul walked into the room fully prepared with information about the disease, and so right away I knew he was the right choice for the boys. He has, also, been the dr for my other three children.

The phone number there is ###-###-####. To get there you just drive down 83N to 322E, which veers to the right as an exit when you get close, because the straight changes to 422E. I believe the 4th light is Cherry Dr, make a right, and then the next right onto Hope Dr. Make the next right into the offices. The pediatrician's office is on the left, and the office is on the 1st floor. Turn left when you enter the building, and go through the first set of doors, and the office is right there.

Wanted to include the info, in case you were interested in checking them out.

Jones Daly Coldren Associates - Excellent! Dr. Sangillo detected a heart murmeur in my daughter at 2 days old that no other doctor picked up on until we got her to the cardiologist! She's great now. Same doctor also picked up on a bone problem with a newborn of a friend of mine. He needed on orthopede, and when they took the baby in, the specialist was shocked that a pediatrician picked on the problem!

Also - a grat resource for future questions is the "Simply the Best" listings that the Central PA Magazine puts out. They poll people on their favorite everything - from doctors to plumbers to caterers to party places. There are great recommendations from people in the Harrisburg area on everything. Good luck.

Welcome to the area :) I've been going to the University Physician's Group on Hope Dr in Hershey (there are many UPGs in the area) since my oldest was born over 7 years ago. I have met many of the Drs there and I'm so happy with their work I would definately recommend them. Dr Mark Widome is who we see. Good Luck choosing!
