I am meeting with a new pediatrician tomorrow that has come highly recommended by several moms that I share a parenting philosophy with. But, I am interested to hear what features of the Dr. and the practice you would personally be looking for. I don't want to overlook something! Is there anything you love or hate about your Dr. or practice?
ETA- I should say that since I already know we are on the same page with things like vaccines and other bigger issues I am more interested in figuring out what else to consider. Right now all I am hoping for is someone who seems interested in my children, more than just a basic exam. I feel like mine doesn't go into enough detail. My old ped used to bring a clipboard filled with things he wanted to touch on for that age and would really take the time to ask questions and hear your answers. I know there are probably some logistical things I should be looking for too though.
