So how do you go about with finding a pediatrician?? My OBGYN has a pediatrician there and I'm wondering if I should just use her.

@ngujen, all I had to do was call the pediatrician and make sure they took my insurance and then the lady told me that when I have the baby the hospital will ask and I tell them who and then someone from the practice will come to the hospital do an initial check on the baby and set my first appointment. If you don't have one picked the hospital will help you do it before you can leave is what I understood

@ngujen, I was told I had to have a pediatrician picked before we can leave the hospital. Sometimes they come see the baby and check them out or they may just set your first appointment. My dr office actually gave me a list of pediatricians in the area but I already have mine picked

look up in your area, look at the reviews and visit the Dr office.. the hospital recommend a Dr to see your baby in the hospital 9 years ago and I still go to the same one
