We also use Dr. Jay Schwartz at Collin County Pediatrics. He moved to Frisco last summer from the town that we lived in, and we moved in the fall. We have used him for almost 5 years, he was our ped in our old town, too. We were so excited that we ended up moving here so we could keep him as our ped. He is awesome with the kids, having 3 of his own that are still young. He is easy for them (and us) to talk to and is very patient. He also understands, from a parent's perspective, when the kiddos are sick. They are good about getting same-day appts. and their office is easy to get to.

I'm pretty new to the area, and needed to find a pediatrician that could live up to the awesome one where we moved from. Someone recommended Dr. Jay Schwartz @ Collin County Pediatrics and I am so glad they did! We were able to get a same-day appointment, no waiting in the office (in & out in 20 minutes), and Dr. Schwartz was great with my son. Here's his website: http://www.collincountypediatrics.com/web172/
He's at the medical office building at Centennial Medical Center, at Coit and 121. Good Luck!

I would second the Dr Goebel...I was actually surprised to not see his partner Dr Berkowitz on this list. All of my friends that have had babies at Presby of Plano, their OBGYN suggested Dr Berkowitz...he saw my daughter when she was born and was great...he is hard to get in with so that is why I went with Goebel...I actually started with Dr Marcy Berry as one person suggested b/c she was so close to my house...she isokay, but I thought the office staff was so unprofessional..at Dr Goebel's office you are always treated very well, the staff is organized, and you don't have to wait very long. The office environment is completely more professional than Dr Berry's.
