Rockland Moms.

we have time but over the summer dh and i have to decide on a peditrican for LO.... i started researching a little and our insurance gives us so many choices.. i heard great things about Pomona Pedi but chances are we plan moving back to the Orangetown area next summer and that would be a hike up the palisades....

Hello. I've waited here for you. Everlong<3<br>

Re: Rockland Moms.

  • I guess I will not be a huge help as we use Pomona... but I do LOVE them!  They might be worth the trip.

  • I started off at Clarkstown Peds. I had no problems with the Dr's there, but the office staff is horrible. There were several incidents, but the final straw was when A was sick on New Years Day, and after being told that she wasn't sick enough to be seen, as decided by the stupid receptionist (even though the office was OPEN that day) I decided I was never going back to that practice. I had to take her to PM Pediatrics in Suffern, and it turned out she had an ear infection and needed meds. Clarkstown wouldn't see her and told me to wait until Monday to bring her in (it was Saturday). Jerkoff's.

    So, since January I've been taking her to Orangetown Ped's. I've only been there twice, but so far I have zero complaints and I like the Dr.'s.  I have several friends that take thier kids there and they love them. The are a much smaller practice than Clarkstown which I actually like better anyway.

  • Ive heard terrible things like Lisa said about the staff at Clarkstown, but good things about the doctors also that theres usually a long wait time even once your in the exam room. But for some reason 2 of families on our block still use them

  • Funny thing, I started out at Clarkstown Peds years ago, had one bad experience and switched to Bardonia Peds. My kids have been going there for years. I can't really rave about them but they are OK and definitely available during emergencies. I do prefer some Drs. over others.

  • We use Pomona and they're a good 20 minutes from us but totally worth it. They just started staying open later in the evenings Mon-Thurs (we actually have an 8:30 appt tonight b/c I think Ry has pink eye...) and I've never had a problem getting one of the kids in on a Saturday or Sunday for a sick visit. They've been fabulous during emergencies. We love them!
  • I chose Pomona Peds after meeting with them and the glowing recommendations from all the Nesties :)

    The woman on the phone at Clarkstown was an a$$ - and that's when i was calling to find out about the practice to choose one. 

    We're at bardonia pediatrics - I like dr. trigg best. i am not loving the practice - it's just ok. 

    i am considering returning to our practice in ho-ho-kus, nj, but it's a real hike. i just loved them.

  • Hi just wanted to tell you about wonderful pediatricians new to new city- they are husband and wife... and from what other moms I met, and from my own experience, they are terrific! they take time out to talk to you and the dad. no question is a dumb question. they are really flexible with their schedules too.  I just had a baby 2 weeks ago and i found out about them thru my best friend.  If you haven't decided on a pediatrician yet, give them a call or visit them online: helpingkidspediatrics.com 845-499-2339

  • Have you met Dr.Jacob (s)  they're husband and wife and are the best!!! I just got a postcard in the mail a few days before I delivered...(I didn't get a chance to interview pediatricians before...) But I called them on the phone and they are so great! I can't say enough about them and how thorough they are with my Rachel!!! I recommend them to all my prego friends..www.helpingkidspediatrics.com
