East end pedi recs?

I've had it with the waits at my practice. At both the 2&4 year scheduled appointment it's been over an hours wait. I walked out today at the one hour mark. Often 30 min for our infant monthly checks. I'm done. Who do you use & how on schedule are they?

Re: East end pedi recs?

  • CCP-GIL above Trader Joe's. We've never waited longer that 15 minutes in the past 5 years. In the winter they have walk-in hours from 7:30-8:30 for illnesses and the staff is very nice. We see Indorato, but I've also liked Chaudhari, Glick, McNanie and Shaver. If you call when they are closed, their call service will get you in touch with a nurse or doctor within 15-30 minutes. We've been very happy with the practice and if I make the appointment late enough, we can go to Natural Stitches afterward. :-)

  • We go to Monroeville Pediatric Assoc in Monroeville behind the Miracle Mile.  Have never had an issue with the staff or any of the dr's.  We usually see Dr. Schott.  They are usally on time with the most we had to wait was in the exam room like 15-20 mins for the dr to come in.  They have walk in sick hours every morning.

    Wow. :-( I'm sorry to hear that.

    I know the woman at the desk can be gruff, but we've never had a wait like that. Once or twice we've waited some in the room, but I can usually hear Dr. I with a patient or on the phone for a patient, so no biggie.

  • The group of doctors we see in Wexford have a Shadyside office:

    We primarily see Stewart and Rowland but have also seen most of the others at random sick visits, and everyone has been nice.  I will say that Stewart can sometimes run a bit behind if you see him in the afternoon, but it's because he is extremely thorough and really takes a lot of time to talk to you and go over more details than most doctors do.  Dr. Rowland is always on time and is really nice, Liam loves him.

    This is where we go and adore the practice.  They even have evening walk in hours- 2/3 times a week.  I was in and out in 25 minutes last night with Madeline.  Awesome online portal where you can access all records.  Appointments have always been on time.  I don't think I have ever waited more than 5 minutes tops.  Message me on FB with you want more info.

  • I go to GIL Children's Community Pediatrics too in E. Liberty with Dr. Shaver.  I have never waited more than 10-15 min.  and I have always had an awesome experience with them.  We moved to Robinson and travel far to see him because he is so fabulous. (Our travel time is longer than our entire stay!)  I am shocked that others have had bad experience there, as I never had?
