I am looking for a new Dr. for my daughters who are 10 and 14 yrs old. Their current Dr. is wonderful and I'm very comfortable with her. That is if I can ever get my girls in for an appointment with her. In the past 7 months she has been out of the country twice and the Dr's office covering for her refused to see my girls on two seperate occassions and they recommended the ER ( once for an ear infection and the second time for a slight injury). Today my 10 yr old stayed home from school and the soonest I could get her in to her Dr. is the 27th. I first chose this Dr. because she had evening appointments, weekend appointments and would take any urgent calls. Not anymore, I'm beginning to think now that her practice has grown she can pick and choose her hours and that really doesn't work with children and ER visits for ear infections is terrible. Any referrals would be greatly appreciated.
we go to dr. leitzel in the lakes of four seasons...shes really great....her number is ###-###-####
Dr. Lara Azzi in Winfield Township off of Randolph. St. Anthony's healthcare network. ###-###-####. Very nice pediatrician and staff.
Hello T.,
I know how hard it is sometimes to even make that decision to change your doctor. So you suffer the pain of compliance for a while and then you have to make a move. I have had my children's doctors for at least 11 years in Crown Point. I live in Valpo now and still travel there. The docor is Sylvia Vicente from Family Practice Network. They used to be called (North Point Pediatrics) at St. Anthony's. Dr. Lisa Gold is also there and I highly recommed her too. There is a wait in the office, but usually I don't have any problems getting appts. Dr. Vicente now calls me by my first name, I trust her judgement explicitly and she makes call backs (a rarity with doctors these days). ###-###-####
God Bless,

I take my kids to Dr. Stroman in Dyer, a drive from CP where I live but we like him very much. I have not had problems getting in. My ob/gyn suggested him when I was looking for a new doctor.
He also has a new doctor in with him, and she does offer older adolescent gyne exams for when the time comes.
Associated Peds in Valpo is really great. I know it's about a half hour for you, but I've been taking my daughter there and their very flexible and I love the entire staff.
Dr. Brett Brechner is a wonder Christian Physician. He is in the Winfield area. ###-###-####
