Any good pediatrician to recommend in North Arlington

[Anonymous]

My family is going to move to North Arlington from August. Could anyone recommend a good family doctor or pediatrician for my kids. My son is four year old and my daughter is almost 3 year old.

Thanks a lot!

I go to Pediatrics of Arlington they are great, we have a two year old and Dr. Catherine Casey has been his doctor since birth. They are open on Saturdays, take sick appointments quickly, you can call and ask the nurses questions anytime and the on call service is super helpful as well. You can talk to a nurse first before they call the doctor, I'm a first time mom so there were some times I have called the on call and I didn't really need to talk to a Dr.

I go to this practice, too, and Dr. Pease is our dr. Love Dr. Pease and agree with above pretty much, but the wait times here are awful. Generally at least 1/2 hour and sometimes more. I am actually thinking of switching my kids to my own internal medicine practice because they are so much quicker and they also do pediatrics. That is Premier Primary Care on N. Glebe.

We love most of the doctors too but agree that the wait times can be horrific. It took me 25 minutes just to get someone on the phone this morning.

We go to Northern VA Pediatric Associates in Falls Church and have been very happy! I have rarely had to wait longer than 10 or 15 min, and am always able to get a sick appointment if my child needs one. We see Dr. Christine Baldrate, but have seen several of the other pediatricians and have been happy with all of them!

Number of families, including us, go to Northern Pediatrics in Falls Church. Very close to Arlington, and it's a great practice.

We go to McLean Pediatrics, which isn't that far from N Arlington. I love it - tiny practice of only two doc's, super helpful after hours nurse line, half day on Saturdays so you don't have to use up your sick leave for well-child visits, lactation consultant on staff, great nurses. Just love it all around.

Sleepy Hollow Pediatrics is great. 6565 Arlington Blvd. They had a few docs on Washingtonian's Best Doc list. Good luck with the move.

I doubt that she's accepting new patients, but I also live this practice. We see Dr Kelly. I cannot get through to them on the phone with a less than 10 minute hold time, and parking is horrific. If I didn't live Dr Kelly so much, I'd switch in a second.

I second sleepy hollow. We never had a problem with wait time and the docs and staff are awesome.
