Hi, I'm new to mamasource, and really like the community. My little one is due in about a month and we havn't had any luck finding a pediatrician. We have to have one picked out before he's born. Do any on you know any good ones that work with Renown in Reno?

What can I do next?

We use Dr. Melissa Byram in Sparks. She's been my son's pediatrician for 11 years and now my daughter's since birth. We love her!

We LOVE our daughter's pediatrician. His name is DR.Stephen Althoff. He's at Pediatric Associates on 6th St. The phone number is ###-###-####. I know several other people that see him and love him as well. You can set up an interview with him (or any other pediatrician for that matter) so you can meet with him first. Good luck!

Hello there! First off..... CONGRATS!!! Babies are simply a joy! You will love being a mom! I am going to suggest Dr. Colletti. I believe his first name is Patrick. He actually isn't even my sons doc. He was the on call doctor when my second was born and I LOVED him. He was so very kind, very personable, and down to earth. My son was fussy when he came in for a report on the baby and he immideatley said.... "Oh this is a trick that works wonders...." He scooped my son up right away, and the way he was holding him and rocking him, my baby stopped crying immediately. That technique worked for months whenever he was fussy. Eventually I will switch over to him as my little guys doc!

Dr. Tara Prokop- Advanced Medical Arts on McCarran and Lakeside. She's excellent. She's young but smart, very down to earth and real, and she really takes time to listen to you and your kid. She just became a first time mom last year, so she relates a lot to what parents go through!

Ours is Dr Daniel Colombo. He is excellent. We have three children, and he has cared for two from birth. He is kind, very carfeul and very knowledgeable. He is on the first floor in the medical building next to Washoe Med / Reknown. I wouldn't use any other pediatrician in Reno.
