Re: Pediatrician recommendations

[Guest guest]

The pediatrician We use is called Roswell Pediatricians they are

located in Cumming and Alpharetta. They will have the MMR in

seperated shots by December of this year. I also was able to receive

a medical waiver instead of having to do the religious waiver for

school. There number in Cumming is . They have 2 doctors

on staff that know alot about Autism, but deny that there is any

link, but they are willing to wait to give shots and willing to

seperate the MMR. The 2 doctors are Dr. Burnham and Dr. Silverman, i

have had bad encounters with others on their staff. Good Luck!

Amnesty,

My regular pediatrician is ok. I don't know if she would overly pressure you into vaccinating.

You are not crazy - Do NOT let anyone push you into things you know in your gut isn't right. I let a number of doctors give me a canned response - That isn't abnormal or that is common etc. and I just thought maybe it is because I'm a first time mother or maybe because I am comparing to her twin etc. What I have learned the hard way... If you have a Dr. tell you they know more about what is right for your child - RUN don't walk to the nearest exit!!

Good luck and sorry I couldn't be more help. Just wanted to let you know you are doing the right thing being very conciencous about his vaccination schedule regardless of what his Dr. thinks. Many of the Drs buy into the CDC and FDA retoric regarding the link between vaccinations and autism.

Hi, I am looking for a new pediatrician for my NT (so far) 11 month old. The one we have is driving me a little nuts just because I can't get them to return phone calls, and I also want to find one that will let me delay vaccines without accusing me of being a bad mom, and split up the MMR. His current dr claimed I was essentially being misled by people who were paranoid because I spend so much of my time with the autistic population, and I was being a nervous first time mom. I told her I may be a first time mom, but I have degrees in child development and have been working with kids for 14 years, not to mention being the oldest in a large family. I hate that "first time mom" excuse, as I am sure many of you do too. Anyway, I am in Marietta, so if anyone has a good dr, please let me know.ThanksAmnesty
