Please recommend your Ped. in Bethpage, Levittown, Plainview, Hicksville area.
I live in Bethpage. I am about to start looking for a pediatrician for my DS (Due in June). Any recommendations would be greatly appreciated! I will need an office that has evening and weekend hours! Thanks!!
(any area close to Bethpage is fine, preferably not further east though) THANKS!

We go to Pediatic Health Associates on Manetto Hill Rd in Plainview.
We've been going for about a year and really like them. Much better than our old practice.

I just transferred here and had my first appt. on Monday after asking everyone on this board their opinions. I have to say, I LOVED them. They were so sweet and caring. I couldn't be happier. I just wish I had known about them sooner.

Great! I really appreciate this info ladies!! I am going to add these to my list. I dont want to go too crazy searching around for a ped. but it seems everyone is happy with Pediatric Health Associates!
How is the wait there? Do you get appointments quickly when the baby is sick? Is it hard to get evening and Sat. appointments?

I've heard it's easy to get appt. when baby is sick but haven't had that experience yet. When I went on Monday I was there 5 minutes when they called my DD name. I wasn't even done with the paperwork yet! When I was calling for both DD's I didn't need Sat. appts so I don't know about that but they did offer me a lot of appt. times including night.

Very easy to get appts when the baby is sick, but try to plan ahead for your well visits.
Most times if I call first thing in the morning when DD is sick (or leave a message before they open), they call back right away and I get in at like 9am.
In the almost 2.5 years we have been going there I think I have had a long wait maybe 2, 3 times. They are usually prompt but it really depends on how busy they are.

We go to Prokids on Wantagh Ave in Levittown. They don't have evening hours, but they do have Saturdays. I never have a problem getting an appt even on a Saturday. They always get me in within the hour for a sick appt.

We also use Pediatric Associates of Plainview and LOVE them. I esp adore Drs. Nayor and Kaden, who were the original two docs in the practice.

Another here for Pediatric Health Associates. I have made many last-minute evening and weekend appts for sick visits and they've always been very accommodating. For well visits during those hours, plan at least a month in advance. We've been very pleased with them.

I use ProKids and I do not like them at all. I almost always wait an hour to be seen and I find one of the doctors borderline incompetant and another extremely condescending. I'm looking for a new group.
