 Hi there, I love Dr. Pickering at Pacific Pediatrics,
 located at the CPMC at 45 Castro St. She's a young mom
 of two. All of our regular check ups are with her and
 often when the babies are sick we end up with another
 doctor (all older men). My fave is Dr. Rostek. We
 interviewed a few pediatricians but if you want to do
 that too be aware that they charge you, whereas other
 doctor's offices don't. She does rounds at CPMC and the
 practice also has an office there.

 I wrote a glowing recommendation of my family doctor in
 the middle of the night while pumping milk in the dark,
 look like I somehow failed to post it! I have nothing
 but good things to say about Avril Swan. I've loved her
 as my doctor, I love her even more as my twins' doctor.
 She is out of network which means my copay is twice as
 high,but it's well worth it for her knowledge and
 attention and caring. She responds to emails often
 within the hour, she even gave me her cell phone number
 when my daughters were born in case I had an emergency
 (she asked me to please delete and forget the number
 when they were two weeks old). Her first appointment
 when you get home from the hospital is a home visit,
 which is kind of essential when you've got two tiny
 babies and are recovering from abdominal surgery! She
 came to our house rather than sending another doctor
 from her practice even though she was technically on
 Christmas holiday when they were born, because she is
 so enamored with twins. She's very holistic. She's
 interested not just in keeping you from getting the
 flu, but also in your overall well-being and she knows
 her way around many of the natural and alternative
 options available in this city. In any case, you should
 consider a family doctor who can get to know all of
 you. I think it's a wonderful way to go. Julia
