Hi Mamas, we are new to the area and I would like to find an awesome pediatrician in the Spring / Woodlands area. I am willing to travel further for the right one! My son is two and is caught up on visits and shots, but want to be prepared should he get sick! Also, any after hours urgent care centers for kids? Thanks!

What can I do next?

Dr. Susan Oneil. Texas Children's Pediatrics. She is sooo awesome and everyone in the office and the other doctors are great too. Sterling Ridge shopping center - at Woodlands prkwy and kirkendahl behind Perry's steakhouse. She is experienced, she is thorough and she is patient, sweet and very down to earth. We have seen her for 13 years. She has opened every Texas Children's Pediatrics office in the Woodlands area. She is at the newest one. Hope this helps. S.

Texas Children's Pediatrics are the best. They have several locations through out Houston. They have weekend hours and I have never had a problem getting an appt. I have seen every doctor at the 1960 location and at the Cypresswood location. I have a 14 month old son and 3 1/2 year old daughter. My son is the frequent flier- he has allergies, ear infections, you name it he has had it. Dr. Moye at the 1960 location is our regular pediatrician. I always walk out feeling like a great Mom. Best of luck to you and welcome to the area!

Yexas Children's Pedi. is GREAT! We use the office off of Cypresswood but there is a clinic in the Woodlands I believe. They do have after hours clinic as well by appt. only. Hope that helps! We use Dr. Sheri Sandifer but I haven't seen a Dr. there at that location that I just don't like.

Hi S.,

We see Dr. Murray Fershtman at Forest Pediatrics. He offices with Dr. Trecia Elhaee. He is off of 242 and I-45. They are both very wonderful caring doctors who are brilliant and patient with their patients and parents. They are open from 8-5pm M-F, with after care hours from 5-7pm I belive also M-F. They also have Saturday hours 9-12 or 2pm during the cold/flu season. I can't recommend them enough. I have 3 sons, and we've been seeing Dr. Fershtman since my oldest was 6 (now almost 14). Would never see anyone else. Good Luck, and welcome to the neighborhood.

We've been going to Dr. Kristie Chandler at Hometown Pediatrics in the Woodlands since 2004. She's great with kids and takes the time to talk to parents. The nurses that work with her are also terrific. There are three other pediatricians at this office so if your child is very ill and your pediatrician is booked, they will get you in with one of the others. With two kids, we've seen them all and they are all as good and nice as Chandler. If you have any questions or concerns, you can speak to one of the nurses and receive advice over the phone. They do answer messages left on the machine within the hour. After hours, one of the doctors is "on call" at all times. Hometown Pediatrics is located at 1595 Lake Front Circle, The Woodlands, ###-###-####, www.hometownpediatrics.com.
For after hours emergency, we've used Trinity Healthcare Network at 6225 FM 2920 in Spring. They're convenient but we found out that our insurance does not recognize them as an ER and would not pay the full amount. So be careful.
Welcome to the area.

We use Texas Children's Pediatric Associates. They have multiple locations and the one on Cypresswood has evening and weekend hours which you can take advantage of even if your doctor is at a different location. All of the doctors and staff are wonderful! Their website is www.texaschildrenspediatrics.org

Good morning and welcome to the area! We have been using Texas Children's Pediatric on Research Forest in the Woodlands since our first child was born almost 8 yrs. ago. Before we had her they allowed us to come and visit the clinic and a short meet and greet with the doc. We use Rose Lapis, but all of the docs there are great, Dr. Flanagan and/or Dr. Irani, on occassion our doc may be on vacation or booked up, it's rare. We have always been able to get in for appt. if the girls are sick. One of the other things I love is that there are 3 location, two in the Woodlands and 1 in conroe, the clinics rotate and one is always open for sick kiddos on a Saturday till at least 12. Again, I've never had a problem getting seen. Good luck!

We have to suggest our pediatrician ... Dr. Kapasi with Texas Children's on FM1960 @ Nanes (around corner from Houston NW Medical Center). My older girls were never sick and rarely saw a doctor. When my youngest was born, she has had times of being quite sick, especially with asthma-type breathing issues, and Dr. Kapasi has been very helpful and really was on top of things. We actually felt like he knew us and our child, and that we weren't just a germ coming through the office. And his nurses are all wonderful, even when I just call to ask a question. The office phone ###-###-####.
