I had to find a new pediatrician because our insurance is apparently having some beef with my daughter’s old pediatrician’s office. (BOO, UNITED HEALTHCARE!)
The doctor’s office is clean and there are lots of toys to keep your kid occupied.
HOWEVER, we did wait almost an hour to get put into a room to wait for the doctor. An hour? Really? THERE WAS NO ONE ELSE IN THE WAITING ROOM. WHY DID WE NEED TO WAIT AN HOUR?
Do you have any idea what it’s like to wait for an hour with a toddler? THANKFULLY, my daughter and my cousin’s girl were REALLY good. But honestly, waiting an hour for a toddler is like waiting for 4 hours as an adult. It must’ve been brutal for the kids.
Anyway, once the doctor did see us, I kind of liked her. She was pretty to-​the-​point and direct. A little different than I’m used to, but not in a bad way. She was good with my daughter and she was very nice and professional. We will most likely go see her again next year.
ALSO, they have lollipops for the kids after. The other doc only had lame stickers. The kids were quite pleased with that.
