And we don’t blame you. If this is the case, take time to think about what you value most in a pediatrician and what services you want your child’s doctor to provide. Jot down your thoughts and questions and discuss them with your network of friends, family and coworkers. This network may help you find the pediatrician that fits most of your wants.
