Ped. question for Moms who prefer holistic approach.

I prefer a holistic more natural approach to medicine and am looking for a ped who respects and believes this also. I am not looking to not vacinate my baby but am looking for one that does not use multi draw vacines and will do 1 or 2 at a time. Looking in Western suffolk & nassau preferably. Any recommendations?

Re: Ped. question for Moms who prefer holistic approach.

Bellmore Merrick Pediatrics, we see Dr. Beharry. You can delay or space out the vaccines as much as you like. I didn't start vaccinating until DS was 15 months old and our ped had no issues with it. She basically said I am the mother, and it's my choice. She is also not as quick to give meds as some of the other doctors in the practice and elsewhere.

ETA: I have yet to come across a doctor that believes in a holistic approach (except a ped in NJ), but she does respect your choices as a parent.
