Choosing a Pediatrician

Filed in archive Health on June 23, 2005

We were obvious first-time parents. We chose our son's pediatrician based only on 2 conditions: ability to speak English (FYI. I live in Germany) and proximity to our house. Honestly, we just took it for granted that ALL doctors are competent.

The doctor we chose, thank God, is really good. But it's also way more than just that. Little did we think that child-doctor relationship is also very very important.

Luckily, my son does not even wince whenever he gets shots but it is obvious that the older he gets, the more anxious he becomes during doctor visits. Soon, we hope to help our son build a good relationship with his pediatrician.

To help you (and me) in choosing the right pediatrician, here are some guidelines written by Dr. Neuspiel,MD for Daily News Health.
