hi mamas!! energy.gifI'm thinking of changing doc office for my children. I'm looking for someone who is open, supports breast feeding 100 %, is nice and supportive of families, and will hold off on shots if a family wants this. we have 4 kids and are on government insurance. know anyone?

We are crunchy and don't vax...but travel to Foster RI to see a pediatrician, Dr Kupperberg who is a homeopath.....after moving to CT...NE though, I looked for some crunchy Drs and other than a few NDs I couldn't get anywhere.....we started with the Ped we have been using for 13 years...drive over to RI fit him....he has a homeopath(who is also an MD)that he covers practice with but that Dr doesn't take insurance. He will do payments plans....his name it's Dr Shevin.

We have insurance and because DrK takes it we only pay copays.....but if we didn't have insurance or if he didn't take it I would still find a way to pay.....our daughter's chiro and CST are out of pocket and we have found ways to pay for it all....we have also been very hou with both of the Drs I mentioned with their approachea to diet etc.

I'm interested in this as well. Gales Ferry Pediatric isn't half bad, but I would like a more holistic group.
