Help an Our Kids reader, she asks "Can you recommend the best pediatricians and dentist in the Fairfax county area for a toddler (almost 3 year old)?"
Sandy R. replied:
We love Childrens Medical Associates CMA who have offices in Fairfax and Alexandria and Alexandria Children's dentist (Dr. Angela). Both Alexandra locations are right off of 395 at the Little River Turnpike exit
Margaret H. replied:
Capital Area Pediatrics is a great pediatric group - they have offices in Vienna, Herndon, Ashburn, Sterling and Falls Church. I used to work for them before changing fields and now take my son to the Herndon group.
Mara S. replied:
We also love CMA. We have also been really happy with Dr. Banaji - he's near the Mosaic District. Great dentist and the hygienists are terrific with little ones!
Linda M. replied:
Dentist- dr. Jack Weil in Vienna. I have seen him and his staff make very young children comfortable on their first visit. Doctor- virginia pediatric and adolescent center in Springfield and Fair Oaks (next to Inova Fair Oaks Hospital).
Sarah D. replied:
We chose to take our kids to our dentist, since most pediatric dentists in Virginia don't employ Registered Dental Hygienists, only Dental Assistants, to do the cleanings. You still pay the same, but for much less training/experience! Just something to be aware of.
Kathleen M. replied:

Julie A. replied:
