Okay, so we're moving up in 2 weeks. I need to get the basics in order. We'll be living in Williston and working in Burlington. Any recommendations for the following?

1) Pediatrician - kids are healthy (so far!), just need a practice for all of the annual stuff and the occasional sniffles, bumps and bruises. Prefer a multi-doctor practice.
2) General Practioner for DH and I (no health issues, just annuals)
3) Gynecologist
4) Pediatric Dentist
5) Regular Dentist
6) Vetrinarian for cats and dogs

Thanks!

Vet for cats and dogs undoubtedly Dr. Josh Lincoln at River Cove Animal Hospital in Williston. We take our three dogs there. Trust me on this.

1) Timber Lane. I've heard Richmond Pediatrics is awesome but it's a 2 doctor show.
2) My GP is Dr. Luebbers at South Burlington Family Practice. Really nice guy.
3) Maitri in South Burlington
4) can't help
5) Dr. Kero in So Burlington is who I see. Timber Lane is very popular.
6) Animal Hospital of Hinesburg is AWESOME, but out of your way. Go with Quick's rec.

I am also Dr. and dentist shopping, but I will be a little further north.

I know Fletcher Allen is dominant there (and most of the in-network providers) are members of one of their operations. But so far, I have found their service less-than-welcoming. They seem somewhat inflexible in scheduling new patients, so I worry a little that they will be like Dartmouth Hitchcock is in New Hampshire - more like factory-style medicine, unlikely to see the same Dr. each time you visit etc...

I am just an adult, so I don't need a family practice. Other Dr.s in my network and area are: Alder Brook Family Health, Good Health, P.C., Georgia Health Center (in Fairfax)

Also, I'm an adult with braces - any orthodontist and dentist recommendations would be greatly appreciated!

Highly recommend Essex Pediatrics in Essex for peds. There are 6-7 docs in the practice. Very good hours and timely response. Dr. Hale is fantastic!

My dentist is Dr. Karen Sperry in South Burlington. I'm very pleased with her.
