Dr. Fong-Breton is fantastic. My kids love her, she goes above and beyond what you expect. Wouldn't go anywhere else.
Pam Cothran June 30, 2012 at 12:48 pm
Dr Ann Marie Villa is our choice of Enfield. Takes her time with the kids and asks about their activities and how they are in general. Always asks about school. We are never rushed out like our past pediatrician who for some reason is getting voted on.

Dr. Gerald Calnen definitely!! He is very accommodating and always concerned. My daughter lives him because he's kind of funny too! He came in on a Sunday for us once when my daughter was vomitting instead of just sending us to the ER. His staff is also so helpful and nice and never ever rude! I couldn't be happier we choose to go to him for our
Daughter!

Doctor Hemant Panchal for sure. He's the best and so is his staff!

Dr.Panchal! My children adore him! His staff is wonderful too! We've been going to him for the past 12 years. I have 5 children so we visit the office often :). Dr Panchal and his staff always take their time with us and we all walk out of there with a smile everytime.

Dr. Tapper and Dr. Sagool, and Dr. Hobberman at Pioneer Valley Pediatrics. My husband went there as a kid and now our 3 kids go there. I LOVE these doctors!!!

Dr Panchal is the best..!! We left Enfield 6yrs ago to Tampa, FL & just recently found a decent doctor. Call him in the middle of the night & Dr Panchal, personally, will respond!! One night, 2am, my daughter was sick. He said "go to my office" & met us there, where he took care of her! We tried Porter & their attitude annoyed me..Tried Pioneer Pediatrics..stuck up & weird..Yelled at me & treated me like I was stupid for asking questions. Dr Panchal's physician's assistant & nurse back then (forgot their names) were great. What a great staff..!! His family all worked there..what nice people! They even worked with me financially....What kid wants to go to a doctor for a shot? Mine..not just to get the lollipop...! LOL

Dr Villa on Hazard Ave. Enfield and her friendly staff are the best.
Stacey June 30, 2012 at 10:01 pm
Cannot agree more with Pam, both of my kids have seen Dr. Villa for the past 7 yrs. I could not ask for a nice Dr. & staff-
Stacey June 30, 2012 at 10:02 pm
Dr. Anne Marie Villa on Hazard Ave. in Enfield! We have been going to her for 7yrs. now and she is always there to help. Her staff is amazing and always do their best to get you in ASAP! I would recommend her to anyone....

Dr. Panchal and his entire staff are the best -- he even opened his office on a Sunday to examine my daughter who was very sick.
Christine July 1, 2012 at 11:43 pm
Dr. Panchal! What other Dr. would be in his office at 7:30am during that nasty October storm with a flashlight & pencil waiting for sick kids? He definitely saved us from an ER trip during such a rough time!
Chris C July 2, 2012 at 12:06 am
