Eugene area family Dr or Ped?

Cherie2 · 11-03-2009, 12:40 PM

My daughter is having her second baby at McKenzie Willamette and they want her to have a Dr for the baby, she also wants sombody for her 3 1/2 year old. He has never had a Dr so she is nervous about being judged and about being forced to vax.

Does anybody know of a non PeaceHealth Dr (because PeaceHealth Dr's dont have privlidges at MW) who might be a good pick?

Thank you for your help

eta: oh yea and he is on ohp

We use Dr. Andrus through Oregon Medical Group. She is very sweet and kind. She is pro-vax but doesn't give us a hard time at all. The only time it's brought up is to verify that we aren't getting shots at this particular appointment. She is anti-circ (and I wish that I had asked why

) so she sent us to another ped. in the building for that.
My DS is on OHP too it it should be fine.
Good luck!

I really like Laura Sanderson. My daughter sees her and I need to switch my youngest over to her. He responds better to her than to Doug Livermore.. who we love for our oldest. We have been slow to vax... with no issues. I do know that she is very anti circ.. and has a very organic way about her. We kinda know her in real life and my outside the office experiences with her have all been super super positive.
Both are with OMG.

Also honey.. I have cloth diapers if you guys want them. I just want them out of my office area.
