BUF Southtown - Rec your pediatrician

Starting the process of looking for a pediatrician as near to East Aurora as possible.

I'd love any positive, or negative recommendations. 

TIA!

    We go to WNY Pediatrics on Big Tree in Orchard Park.

    I've always been happy with the care and the hours. However, I have had a lot of trouble getting well appts lately.  I called for Justin's 18mth 3 weeks in advance and got a lecture and a half from the receptionist. So for his 2 year I called 3 months in advance- they could BARELY squeeze me in. They had 1 appt, it's during his nap time and the woman asked, "ummm, it's the week before thanksgiving, so that's all we have, can you just wake him up early one day?"

    We go to Carrow St. Pediatrics in Orchard Park.  I have been very happy with them.  They are a small practice (only 4 doctors) and a few NP.  We never have a problem having the boys seen.  They always get us in for sick visits and they always follow up the next day if I call in after hours with a question or speak to the doctor after hours.  They follow Reed really closely since he had a Wilms Tumor at 7 months.  I wanted a practice where I knew all of the doctors and they knew my children.  I usually go to Dr. Wegman for well visits.  You can request who you see and they can usually accommodate.  For sick visits, I generally take whoever is available.

    We go to East Aurora Family Practice.. Not a pediatrician.. they see adults too.. but they are very good. We have always been seen in a matter of hours if Eve is sick.  And this is silly, but several of the P.As there have young kids (Within a few months of Eve's age) and I feel like they "get" it.

    Stay far far away from East Aurora Peds though.

    WTF? they don't let you make your appts like when you're there? We already have Eve's 2 year appt scheduled, but since its 6 months in advance its at a convienient time at least.

     This is where we go too.  I am very happy with this practice, never had a problem.  I haven't had an issue with scheduling, but I always make the next appointment before I leave the office.  Thankfully, I have never had to make  a sick appointment yet, but from what I hear, they are accommodating.

    We go here too.  I'm happy with the practice and the doctors we have seen.  I normally schedule her next appointment before I leave also.  I have had to call and go into for a sick appointment a few times.  They got me in that day within a few hours.

    We go to Carrow Street Pediatrics in Orchard Park.  I'm very pleased with them.  I've been in a few times since Carter was born- have met Dr. Wegman, Dr. Kita, and both NP's.  I really like Dr. Kita.  I like that they call to follow up on after-hours calls and I like that when I've called on a Saturday morning they could get him right in.  They do have evening hours if you're looking for that...
