You can see above that we have worked with several specialists. To the best of our knowledge, there does not appear to be a physiological issue at the root of her weight gain issues. I’m seeking out a second opinion, and I’d like to try a doctor with a different skill set.

all pediatricians have the same skill set. it sounds like you want a ped who isn’t concerned that your child is on the 1% of weight?

No, all pediatricians do not have the same skill set. There is no consistency across training or required updates to practice.
The 1% exists for a reason, and it's not always abnormal pathology. OP has seen specialists, her child just may have a smaller body. There are pediatricians who will support her growth and development without feeling the need to harp on nutrition for 30 minutes.
