Need a Good Family Doctor

A.L. asks from League City, TX
19 answers

We moved to League City last July and are still looking for a family doctor that fits our family. Does anyone know of a good family doctor that will see all five of my children and my husband and me. We need someone that understands that we are experienced parents and who will respect our opinions on how to care for our children. So far I have only found doctors that treat me like I don't know what I am doing or seem as though they don't know what they are doing. I prefer to have all of my family seen by a family doctor, not a pediatrician. I am willing to make a drive for a good doctor!

What can I do next?

Hi A., I work at a family Physicians office in Webster. It is called Bay Brook Family Physicians. There are 3 women Dr's in the clinic, Dr. Anwar, Dr. Siddiqi and Dr. Lew. They are all very friendly and caring. I have only been there for a month, but I have heard nothing but great things about them so far. We also have 2 Endocrinologists in the office. It is at 450 Medical Center Blvd. Suite 600. Webster TX, 77598. If you aren't familiar with the area, go to yahoo maps or something like that and pull it up. Good Luck!

I have a pediatrician in Dickinson that is wonderful. Her name is Marrietta Cline. She is located at 517 and 45. I like all the drs in her office EXCEPT CARL - he is a true jerk. He is only there one day a week but avoid him like the plague. He has a god like complex - he is right and you are stupid. the rest are wonderful. I also have an old fashioned family country dr in Alvin by the name of D. Grant Mac Donald. He is wonderful. Easy in, easy out, takes most insurance and medicaid. Both are close enough to League City to be easy to get to and will listen to YOUR way of doing things and work with you. That is important to me as we have 8 kids and I have my own oppinions about how I like to do things. Good luck.

Try "Your Family Doktor" on 17030 Hwy. 3 in Webster - ###-###-####. I think there are about five in the practice and we've seen three. They were all wonderful. I particularly like Dr. Hartig, but my husband likes Dr. Bertolotti, and my dad, who is very anti-doctor, really likes Dr. Hooker. Good luck.

I agree with a previous poster Your Family Doktors is a great office. I have never had longer them a 3-5 minute wait with them. I go to Dr. Hooker and he is amazing with kids. In this group I think there is a doctor to fit almost everyones personality Hope this helps!

UTMB just opened a brand new (and pretty I might add) office behind the new Kroger on 96. Its just off South Shore Blvd and 96. Dr. McAtee and Dr. Majmudar are both terrific. I would have to say that they are very non-judgemental woman. They also have a new Dr. at that same location that is a general practitioner. Her name escapes me at the moment. The office is very well run and I absolutely dig the nurses. I jokingly say to one nurse there that she gives shots like a machine gun. My kid doesnt even have time to cry!!! Check it out!!!

I recommend Dr. Roberto Bisonni in League City. He is in the new HEB shopping center complex off 45 at the Santa Fe exit. I've been taking my kids to him for 14 years and have used him myself for about 5. I never have a problem getting appointments when it's an urgent care situation and Dr. Bisonni always makes time to discuss concerns with me. We have moved a few times over the years and although he is not the closest Dr to us anymore, we would rather make the drive than switch.

Hi A.,

Nassau Bay Pediatric, more specifically Dr. Perona. She is a great doctor and definitely respects the opinion of an experienced parent. She only sees kids. Her office is next door to Christus St. John in Nassau Bay. I also have 5 kids. She has been the primary care doctor for all of them.

Dr Kathi Mc Cree with Texas Gulf Coast Medical Group is wonderful. She is a popular doctor, and it is sometimes time-consuming to get in to see her. My older males have preferred to see a man doctor so don't all see her, Dr. Dudney is the doc in that practice that they most often see. Dr. Mc Cree takes a lot of time with people, is very open to listening to you, if you are trying not to take antibiotics, for example she will sometimes recommend alternate treatment options. She discusses options, explains what's happening, and is a very kind person. Because I sometimes needed to get my small children in to see the pediatrician ASAP and Dr. Mc Cree is often booked solid, I used Dr. Raj Elizabeth Kalia as my pediatrician. She is in a practice close to St. Johns hospital in Nassau Bay, whereas Texas Gulf Coast Medical doctors practice mostly out of Clear Lake Hospital. I have used both these doctors for MANY years. Dr. Mc Cree is not threatened if you have more questions than she can answer and feel you need a specialist, but sometimes I've ended up finding her counsel better and she's more help figuring out a problem, and have returned to using her after seeing a specialist. It is not quick to get in to see her, but she's wonderful. By the way, I've lived here 25 years, I have 8 children, oldest is age 31, youngest is 12. 5 of them were born in this area. I've seen a lot of doctors in my time.

There is a great clinic in Friendswood, just up 518 from League City. Depending on where you are in LC, it may not be far. It used to be a pediatric clinic, but has recently added a full family practice. Dr Judice is a great Dr. I don't know if 1 Dr. will see everyone in the family, but everyone could go to the same clinic. My husband has seen one of the new Drs, and he was very happy. It is the UTMB clinic at 128 W. Parkwood (528) at Friendswood Dr. (518). The phone # is ###-###-####.

I know of an excellent Pediatrician, however, he's not a family doc. Dr. Michael Binder is very easy with people, is extremely realiable in emergency situations and is on top of his game in medicine. He is in Friendswood off FM 528 & FM 518. 128 W Parkwood Ave, Friendswood, TX 77546. ###-###-####

You might try Your Family Doktors on Hwy 3. There are several doctors in the practice. Members of our family have seen Kathy Hanson, Vivan Hartig and Mark Hooker. We like all 3. I would guess the others are equally good. It's a practice at which you can actually get an appointment very quickly.

I have gone to Kathi McCree (Gulf Coast Medical Group, right across from Clear Lake Regional Medical Center) for many years now and wouldn't go to anyone else. She has a large family also and I believe they homeschool their children. I would think she would appreciate and respect the way you want to care for your children. I would HIGHLY recommend her. She is very busy, so if you're sick and need to get in to see her right away, you usually can't, but they have a team of doctors that you can go to if you have to get in quickly. Good luck!
