Pediatricians in Lakewood Ranch, FL

Still on the hunt. Most doctors are pretty set on the vaccine thing. Which I'm okay with on a delayed schedule. Most are not willing to work with a parent. Also, we have Florida healthy kids - which I was not aware is a part of medicaid- so most doctor's are now not accepting it due to the changes since Obama care we moved from Ohio and never once did I deal with such nonsense.

Ellenton Pediatrics. Dr. Cristian Chiritescu. Great staff there.

We love the Giangrecos and Dr Joe Scarano! Also if you have a girl there are a couple of females doctors there--Dr Kathrine (Giangreco) and Dr Taylor

Love Ellenton pediatrics.. They always test and do lab work b4 they come to a conclusion

I love Dr Tehan with Manatee peds. Their staff, eh. The place, eh. The dr has spent our on the phone with me answering questions. Calls me when my daughter is sick to check up. I do a VERY delayed schedule and although she disagrees she is very pleasant about it. Never forces me. Never ever strong arms me. She's truthful. She's calm. She's a mom. She's awesome.

Pediatric partners ( Drs. Lopez and White)

The best around is Dr. Lopez and. Dr. White in Bradenton!! We have been to some around here but had problems with wait time, etc. Plus Dr. Lopez is a teaching Dr. So he is quite knowledgable in all areas you may have. Pediatrics Partners off exit 270.

Dr. Bindu Nair ...Kids First Pediatrics@Lakewood Ranch absolutely the best in my opinion. 8 years with my girls

Karen Lepianka Seymour you use Dr. Nair to? I just love her and she takes most all insurance. Her nurse Crystal is the best. Very personal relationship with her patients.

Wasn't impressed with Ellenton Pediatrics which is who my girls were seeing during the adoption period. I changed to Dr. Nair as soon as the adoption was final.

The only 2 doctors at Ellenton pediatrics is dr Christian Chiritescu and dr. Jessica Mckelvie. Me and my 2 little sisters have been going there for years and love them both.

Definitely skip Ellenton Pediatrics if you do not follow the CDC guidelines for vaccinations. When we moved down here several years ago I met with them to discuss alternative schedules. We hadn't vaccinated our children at that point, and were ready to start a delayed schedule. He was very nice and caring at that point and said no problem. He believes in vaccines, but was okay with a delayed schedule to get them caught up. Well, two months later at my first appointment his story completely changed. He was downright hateful and rude. I left in the middle of the visit in tears because of his behavior. I do hear good reviews from other parents, but I'm assuming they follow the CDC guidelines. I now go to Dr. Logan in West Bradenton (about a 25 minute drive or so) and have been so pleased with her care. She does recommend vaccines, but was willing to work with me. The drive is so worth it to me to have a pediatrician who truly cares about me and my family.

Dr Placheril is who we use. He's helped my daughter out since we moved here when she was just a toddler. She's 9 now, so he's seen her grow!

Dr Placheril off 70, LOVE everyone in his office, he's on call 24/7, very prompt at returning calls after hours. Wouldn't take my son anywhere else

Dr. Nair. Just moved over by Lakewood Ranch Medical Center.

We love Dr. Placheril on SR 70 & I-75... He has been great with our daughter who has Down Syndrome and her twin brother. Love him and his staff!!!

Dr Logan covers for Dr Victor-Linkenhoker and vise-a-versa. We like Dr Logan and don't mind seeing her when our Dr is out.

Ellenton Pediatrics is amazing.

Pediatric Partners, Jeffrey White and Gerardo Lopez. Amazing Docs and staff!! They are on SR64 and they are open on Saturday mornings for emergencies. My son is 4 and loves Dr. White. Doesnt mind going to the Dr and even pretend he talks to Dr. White on the phone. I just read your comment above that he doesn't take your insurance though. Its a shame bc they are great.

I absolutely love Ellenton Pediatrics. There are two doctors, Dr C and his wife Dr Alina, and one Nurse Practitioner, Jessica McKelvie... and all three are hands down amazing! When you schedule appointments, you can choose to schedule them with the same doctor always, but if you need a same day appointment, as with any office, you will see whoever is available. I have never had any issues getting a same day appointment, or changing appointments when needed!

Cooper Family Group on 64....rated #1....birth to genetic. Fantastic doctors.

My girls had Dr.Linkenhoker for 17 yrs..love them!♡ Manatee Ave.

Ellenton Pediatrics does not do the Dr. Sears schedule, CDC only

I second Giangeco, Scarano & Taylor...Dr. Alfredo and Dr. Joe are awesome! We have been going to them since our daughter was a newborn.

Dr Vanessa Victor-Linkenhoker as Bayside Pediatrics. She's on manatee and 51 st st. My kids have gone to get for over 12 years! She gets them in the same day and there's never any wait! Also she's the Dr you'll see every time! She's great! My 19 year old is sad that she had to leave and find an adult Dr.

Dr. Nair accepts Medicaid. I have it for my girls as it is state provided when you adopt and have BCBS as secondary.

Thank you. We tried Dr. Frias- not a winner. Dr. White no linger accepts our insurance so I'll try your other suggestion

We love Ellenton Pediatrics! We been using Dr C for six years now. Entire staff is wonderful.

Jamie Foss looking thru folders..Dr.C is on there..a few in West bradenton..but u don't want to travel that far..Can't hurt to call..and ask them their veiws?

Ellenton Pediatrics. Great doctors and staff. Been using since fall 2008.

Dr. Pineno at Cooper family medical is amazing!!

Ellenton Pediatrics - Dr. Chiritescu is the best pediatrician I have ever used!
