How to Choose the Right Pediatrician
When you're expecting, it is highly recommended to find a pediatrician before your child arrives. Depending on your comfort level, this could be anywhere from a few weeks to a few months before the delivery.
When you feel that you've found the right doctor, you can also schedule an interview with them. Most offices welcome this approach, although you may be charged for a visit. When considering a pediatrician, there are a number of questions you might ask. Here are some of the most common.
- Does the doctor encourage questions?
- Do they spend enough time with you?
- Do you like the other doctors in the practice?
- Do they take on new patients?
- Do they take your insurance?
- How do they handle problems after hours? (e.g., is someone on call?)
- What hospital are they affiliated with?
- How convenient is the location, hours, and parking?
