Kaiser Pediatrician in Orange County

My employer is raising our insurance premiums again, so I'm switching to Kaiser. I have a 2 month old and need some good pediatrician recommendations. I live in Orange, but am willing to drive a short distance for someone really good.
Do any of you ladies have Kaiser and can recommend your pediatrician??
TIA!

Re: Kaiser Pediatrician in Orange County
When my daughter fell ill with a serious condition we went to urgent care in Costa Mesa and the doctor there was incredible. She was so thorough and sent us to Hoag ER immediately when others just could have sent us home. (My own pedi was not that helpful - I have since switched) We really credit her with helping address a serious issue with my daughter that other Drs may have missed. She just said, "Something is worng, she is ill" it was kind of a hunch. We ended up at CHOC and went through numerous tests. My daughter had emergency surgery on her intenstines so that Dr was right on.
I asked where she worked and she said Kaiser. My sister is with Kaiser and found her in Costa Mesa/Santa Ana (I believe). Her last name was Racic or something similar.
Pinkytee (my sis) - Can you give more info??

The Dr. Calips is talking about isn't a full-time pediatrician, she works the after hours offices.
Dr. Cordes in Irvine is highly recommended. I met him and liked him. He is very busy though. I have also heard that Dr. Plum in Costa Mesa is very good. I go to the Mission Viejo office and see Dr. Stefanides. I like her, but it may a bit far for you.
