To get rid of a unsupportive Paediatrican or not Rss

Up until a couple of months ago I got on with our Paediatrican but lately he is getting on my nerves. He basically told us that we werent feeding our child properly as she hadnt put on weight but we noticed that she was getting taller. He totally ignored me and told me she should be putting on weight. He seems to think that he know our daughter better than we do and treats us like idiotic frist time parents. Lucky for us I have friends who have premies before who have done really well like she has. Do we get a second opinion or get a new one need some advice
If it were me in your shoes and I didn't feel confident with our paediatrician, I would seek another opinion. You really do put a lot in the hands of these specialists and you need to feel comfortable with them.

I hope you get the answers you are looking for.

If it were me I'd be looking for another ped. I'm not 100% happy with ours but he's the only one we can get into at the moment so we're stuck for a while...
I think that way too and hope to change but the waiting list to see other ones are 4mths. So we will go to the next appointments then if we are still not satisfied then we will put in for a change
