Dr Arnold at Crows Nest

**elleandsam** · 29-08-2009 14:08

I had my baby at North Shore Private and Dr Arnold was the paediatrician that saw her and checked her. Has anyone had any experience with him? We're no longer breastfeeding due to some feeding issues and I am hoping not to get any judgement at her 6 week check up.

Hi

I was at the same hospital but we have Dr Lesley and midwifes told me that all their paeds are great so I won't be worried about being judged...
Good luck!

Hi there...
Dr Arnold was also my son's paediatrician at NSP. I found he was really good and thorough at the 6 week check up. He never really asked abt breastfeeding directly, so don't worry. He was more focused on the babies development and weight gain etc. My experience with him was very positive.

Well we had our six week check up and Dr Arnold was fantastic. He picked up on Elle's silent reflux and now things are looking up. We adore him.

Dr Arnold was our daughter's paediatrician through the Mater. She was jaundiced and spent a couple of days in NCIU. He was fantastic. He rang me on a Saturday night with her blood results. His manner is thorough, calm and gentle.
We were very happy with him. At the 6 week check he asked what we were feeding. We were BF and comping with formula. No judgment just interested in it for his notes.
Fees are very reasonable too.
