I normally take my two year old daughter to a natropathic but my husband and I agree at some point she will need a pediatrician. does anyone see someone with a holistic approach who won't push immunizations. Perhaps a MD and ND? Any thoughts are appreciated.

What can I do next?

I had a hard time finding a good pediatrician for my kids, so I got a recommendation from my dentist, Dr. Rachelle Shaw (I know, a little backwards!) She said that she takes her 3 children to Dr. Tom Rothfeld and highly recommends him. We have only been seeing him for a couple of years so far, but every visit has been terrific!
I hope this info helps! :)

I also have an MD and ND for my kids.

For an MD, we go to Cactus Childrens Clinic on Thunderbird and 59th Ave (across from Banner Thunderbird Hospital). We don't have to go often (healthy kids!), but when we do, they are not pushy about immunizations. I have also liked all of the docs and PAs that we have seen there.

For an ND, we go to Dr. Marie Santora (Oasis Naturopathics) on Dysart & Camelback in Goodyear.

Dr. Ramtley at Desert Sun Pediatrics ###-###-####. She's really good, and prefers not to use antibiotics if there is a natural way to treat whatever is wrong with your child.

We see Dr. Nemivant at Pediatrix. He is pretty mainstream but won't push us to do vaxes. We also see a naturopathic Dr, Dr. Vituro.

Dr. Steven Davidson on Bethany Home and 23rd Ave. He is great. He is an Osteopath and into Homeopathy and alternative medicine but still a Dr. I send many of my reflux babies to him and they do not need or are able to ween them from medicine. He will not pressure you to vacinate.
