Our family has been using Dr. Bedingfield as our pediatrician for four years now. We've since moved an hour and a half away and still make the drive because we cannot imagine finding anyone remotely as capable as the providers in their practice. They have multiple Pediatrician on staff, amazing nurse practitioners, and I believe they even have child therapists on staff now as well.
The wait time, provided you keep your appt. time, is never very long and the entire office staff are incredibly courteous and attentive. They have "talk time" in the mornings during which parents can call with any question or concern and get immediate answers. They also have extremely reliable and prompt after-hours emergency service, through which you're connected to a pediatrician by call-back usually within 25 minutes, no matter the hour! Complete lifesaver for parents of littles!!
We've never had medications pushed for our kids we felt unnecessary, they don't automatically prescribe antibiotics for every sniffle like some other practices, and they're genuinely interested and concerned for our kids. If they're ill, they'll call the next day to check on their condition. At appointments the doctors appear promptly and spend as much time as you need answering any mundane question with ease and reassurance, I've never once felt rushed.
In fact, at our last appt my twelve year old daughter said she sort of felt like we'd just had lunch with an aunt, she was THAT comfortable with the physician.
I cannot, cannot CANNOT recommend this practice enough. Give them a try, you'll never leave! read more
