Finding the right pediatrician
for your growing family
For several months, you've been dreaming about the day you'll get to
meet your little one. While you're designing the nursery, creating a
birth plan and registering for all those baby necessities, there's one
more important task to add to your list to prepare for your baby 's
arrival – finding the pediatrician that's just right for your family.
From the first exam in the hospital to each important well-check, you'll
want a supportive, experienced and compassionate pediatrician by
your side. Some soon-to-be parents are often surprised to find that
one of the best times to find that provider is before baby even arrives.
Your little one will need lots of visits and care during those first few
months – from weekly checkups to vaccination schedules, checking
weight gain and adjusting feeding and sleeping schedules.
