Evans-Ramsey Tracy, MD

Dr. Tracy is amazing. She is our daughter’s pediatrician and we couldn’t be happier. Not only does she know the research, but she’s practical. When our baby was born, she was the last pediatrician to assess her. She recognized that we were super stressed parents who were having difficulties feeding (it took 7days for my body to produce milk for the baby). Dr. Tracy discharged us on a Friday, but had us come into the office the following Sunday to reassure us and make sure we were doing OK. We were so grateful for the appointment and her help. What an extraordinary doctor!

Dr. Tracy has been my daughter’s pediatrician for almost five years, since she (my daughter) was born.
Dr. Tracy has a great bedside manner with patients and parents, and during visits, she never seems hurried. I always leave with my questions answered, and I have received follow-​up phone calls from her about questions and issues.
When my daughter was hospitalized, she came by one evening to pay a visit (and Dr. Tracy has her own family and young child).
She is very flexible and willing to consider alternative treatments and approaches. Before a neurosurgery, she wrote a prescription for my daughter to receive craniosacral therapy. I don’t know if it worked or not, but I never felt like a kooky Cali-​new ager asking for the prescription. Plus I was able to get partially reimbursed by my insurance.
Her office is located in Orinda and Berkeley, and the other doctors in the practice seem quite competent and nice. The practice offers lots of convenient services like unscheduled drop-​in hours on Monday mornings (when your child has possible been sick during the weekend and you’ve been sweating it the whole time!) and an advice nurse.
The wait time on the phone can be long at times, and it’s almost impossible to directly and immediately reach a human, but who has such expectations any more?
