We had this problem when we moved from NJ to MoCo with our teens. No pediatricians had openings to accept teenagers. We ended up finding a family practice doctor for them. It was a very frustrating process. Good luck.

I think it is common, especially with busy/popular practices. You've dodged a bullet if you ask me - we used to go to Arlington Pediatrics and it made me crazy. There are plenty of other pediatric practices in Arlington, Falls Church, and McLean. Sleepy Hollow comes to mind but I know there are others. Also you can look at family practices - many have doctors with pediatric speciality or are GP or family practitioners, in addition to internists etc.

We just moved to Arlington (22201) from NY and we are looking for a new Pediatrician. I called Arlington Pediatrics and was told they only accept newborns.
We already had to get is school forms signed by his old pediatrician in NY. We really need to find a doc here.

I have searched the threads. This is where I found Arlington Pediatrics, but most of the posts are OLD. Anyone have a pediatrician in North Arlington they like. I really don't want ot have to go as far as Fairfax.
I work at the WB so NW DC would work too. TIA!
