Love Dr. Hassell and Dr. Barnhart with Pediatric Associates of Kingwood. Â My son was born with a hole in his heart and both Dr's were great in getting up in to TCH quickly. Â We spent a lot of time at TCH for the first 2 years. Â Just can't say enough about how they handled everything.All the Dr. there are good, imo. Â Their number is 281-359-1000 Â They are located just across WLH bridge if you are leaving Kingwood and heading toward 1960. Â They are at the 2nd light on the right
@Fallon:
Dr. Barnhart isn't taking new patients.
But...everyone at Kingwood Pedi. is awesome. As far as interviewing before baby comes, I didn't find it necessary. However, you do need to give the hospital the name and number of the practice you would like to use. Someone from the practice you choose will come see baby in the hospital.
I accidentally gave them the wrong phone number at the hospital. It was a very rushed thing as **** hit the fan very quickly. Anyway, a pediatrician came from the mistaken practice and I was none too impressed. Things were so crazy the first few days home that I had to take baby back to said practice for her initial checkup. After that, I switched to Kingwood Pedi.
I don't think you need to know ahead of time who you want to use forever, but you should have a good idea of at least what facility you want to use.
We see Dr. Chin and love her. She's more laid back and as a first time mom I really appreciated that. She's so calm and reassuring about things. She's helped me to not freak out about every little thing. She also tells me what I need to hear. But in a nice way! 4951
