Our daughter for the first few months had severe diaper rashes. Open in areas and obviously painful. His advice after several concerned appointments was to buy Crisco and put it on her rash. I can't believe it but we actually tried it and it made it worse! Switched doctors and have been with the new pediatrician for 13yrs and two other kids later. Couldn't be happier! BTW ends up our daughter was allergic to the diaper itself and right off her new doctor gave a prescription ointment that cleared it up.

Instead of referring me to a hospital ER for PREP, he told me there was nothing he could do and told me to make an appointment with him in 6 months.

For 18 years as a school nurse, I have had the opportunity to refer many new parents/caregivers and…read moretheir children to the GNBCHC for physicals, immunizations, and/or primary care. From the first call to follow up calls the individual on the phone is pleasant and efficient. I have never had a parent or child complaint to me about the care they received.

The clinic has a benefits department where a staff member meets with individuals and helps them apply for insurance. I am grateful that as a nurse we have this center for families in the GREATER New Bedford Area. Jo-Anne M.
