I am getting ready to have my first baby ( about 3 weeks away), a girl, and have not been really on top of finding a Pediatrician. I have had a couple of recommendations for Dr. Michael Slavik...problem is the two phone numbers I have for the Schaumburg office are bad. Does anyone know their number or can anyone offer up another doctor in the area they really trust? I want a doctor whose first response isn't always medication and one that takes time to know who their patients are.

What can I do next?

We take my 1 year old son to Dr. Mike Slavik and LOVE, LOVE, LOVE him!! Dr. Charles Slavik is his dad and is awesome too. We've seen Dr. Celina Miller (also in the practice) and love her too, but haven't seen her in the office, only right after Alex was born and one other time when he was in for Jaundice.

Anyway, their office number in (technically Schaumburg although it is right on the border of RM) is ###-###-####.

The three doctors in this practice are not medicine-happy. They're very even keel and ask you questions as well are very open to your questions. I've never felt rushed and have talked with all three of them at 3 am -- and never once have I been made to feel as if I inconvenienced them. I highly recommend this practice. They will meet with you before you have your baby if you'd like to set up an appointment, at no charge. We met Dr. Mike and loved him from the start -- he has three babies of his own, one born last year. Good luck and send me an email if you need more info. They are truely wonderful doctors and the office staff is great too.

I used to go to Dr. Slavik years ago. I agree with the other comments that he does have a good bedside manner and does not push medications however I feel that because he is so laid back that he sometimes does not take the parents seriously when they express a concern about a child;s health;and believes then to be overreacting to an ailment. Unfortunately, in our case the ailment was serious. I LOVE Dr. Celina Miller. She is caring and compassionate and will listen to a parent.

For my daughter we go to Associates in Pediatrics on Schaumburg Road just west on Barrington Road in Streamwood but on the Schaumburg/HOffman/Streamwood border. They have a main ofice in Elgin too. Her Doctor is Dr. Michael Sheade and I also went to him growing up. There are two brothers in the practice Wynn and Michael Sheade... I would recommend either of them.

I, too, go to the Slavik, Salvik, Miller practice and LOVE them all!! Like the other post said, I've talked to them all at various times of the day and night and I've never been made to feel like a bother. We see Dr. Miller mostly, but have also seen Dr. Mike on many occasions. You have the phone numbers from the post below. I would highly recommend them!!

I use the doctor's at Wee Care Pediatrics ###-###-####. They are in Arlington Heights and I've only been going to them for a year. I absolutely love this place, my son who is now 2 had a penial adhesion and none of the other pediatricions that I was going to before ever mentioned anything. But when I took my son to this practice they noticed it right away and set me up to go and see a pediatric uroligist, so now my son will be having a minor surgery, but it is better now than when he gets older and is more aware of that area. I really do like them because they did pay such close attention to my son and spent time with me asking question, letting me ask questions, I never had that rushed feeling like I was just another $$ to get in and out the door.
