The very best of the practitioner sites is Dr. Greene's House Calls which answers questions for parents. This site is filled with useful information and is attractively laid out. While this site is meant for parents, his answers are accurate and not watered down. Other physicians come to this site to ask Dr. Greene questions. His writing style is engaging and informative and as thorough as a medical textbook. Allergies, nutrition, Infectious Disease, and many other pediatric problems are well discussed here. When you visit also check his list of recommended books for parents.

Your site was discovered while I was trying to assure my wife that the relatively firm mass beneath our two-week-old daughter's breast area was likely a hormonal response that was quite normal. Yes, we'd read the books, asked our doctor etc. But, it truly added to my wife's comfort level to read your answer to a similar question. As for myself, I am impressed with the clarity of your information and the wonderful sense of humour you share. You provide a wonderful perspective. Thanks.

Great site! I've been searching the net regarding my question, and yours is the only one I could find that might help me. I have it bookmarked to come back and read more and more and more as my pregnancy progresses! (And after I deliver, too!)

I truly enjoy reading your site. I have not asked a question, but I have had many answered by your comments each day. Thank you.

Thank you for being there. It's nice for us first-time moms to have a kind of oasis to turn to right inour own homes.

I want to thank you very much for the help and info on my daughter Jaymie. Even though it is a long haul for her, there is at least a little hope. Again, thank you very much for the info on this disease ( Dupytren's Contracture and Plantar Fibromatosis).

Dr. Greene: I have been having a heck of a time with my son and "toilet learning." Thank you so much for an informative and really wonderful web site. It is so easy to use and answers questions in a thorough and thoughtful way. It's the best advice I've read on "toilet learning," and I can't wait to share my notes with my husband and my son. Thanks again.

I love Dr. Greene's web site and have recommended it to all of my friends who have kids or are expecting! I am very fortunate to have Dr. Greene as my children's pediatrician, and I feel that I have gotten to know him better and have the benefit of his advice on a regular basis through his web site. The kids think it's pretty cool that their doctor is on the internet as well! Thank you for such a wonderful resource.

I find this web site extremely informative and well put together. This has been a valuable source of information - something that I can take to my daughter's pediatrician that has given her some insight as to another reason for my child's discomfort. Thank you.

You rank up there with Dr. Brazelton and Dr. Spock! Your Q&A section has really helped me on several occasions!

What else can I say, but "thank you"? For myself, for my daughter, and for everyone else whose lives are touched by this disease [HIV/AIDS] -- thank you. Maybe even if a cure or vaccine is never found, at least the day may one day come when it won't be necessary to hide the truth from so many people as long as possible. Sometimes I think it almost takes as much energy to hide the truth as it does to fight the illness. Now, can you tell me where I put the darn box of tissues?

You are fantastic! You are caring, technically outstanding, and very responsive. We recommend you all of the time. This web page is further testimony to your dedication to the field.

Hope you'll enjoy a word of congratulations from a web wandering Princeton alum, class of 1974. I think your site is outstanding, and I'm sharing it with colleagues who work in pediatric physical therapy, including school system and early intervention programs. Congratulations on being named medical web site of the week!!

[Thank you so much for giving us permission to reprint Dr. Greene's article.] Dr. Greene's sensitivity and compassion moved me to tears. He must be a wonderful doctor. And without question this will be the finest article we've ever printed in our little newsletter. It's a gem, absolutely perfect and more than I dared hope for! Please give Dr. Greene my sincerest thanks. I will include with the article an introduction to Dr. Greene and a recommendation to visit your web site. Again, very special thanks to Dr. Greene!!

I believe this is a great service you are doing, and it is the first web site I go to when I turn my computer on. I tell everyone who is on the internet about it. It has answered many questions for me that have not been answered by my pediatrician in such detail. Thank you very much!

Thank you so much for the wonderful, in-depth answer to my question. It is so nice to know that somebody cares enough to go into detail about this problem. I will be seeing my son's pediatrician this week and hope to get his prescription for Diflucan for my son. I want this problem resolved ASAP. Thank you again for your prompt and thorough response to my question.
Lesley Cooper
What a great website!! And I feel honored to work at a company that has helped make this site possible. But most of all, I am really touched by Dr. Greene's humanity. I have read a lot of "parenting" books, but rarely have I laughed so hard, felt so thoroughly informed on a subject, experienced someone else's compassion for a problem, and felt so "listened to" all at the same time! It's pretty remarkable considering the fact that he is answering someone else's question. Thank you, Dr. Greene, for being you!

This page has become a permanent bookmark for me. I find I reference it just to keep up with everyone's daily parenting worries (and to ensure that I am not the only parent wondering when the "terrible twos" will end). Keep up the good work!!

WOW. That's very powerful. I am immediately going to search our medicine chest to see if we have anything with dibucaine in it!!! Your home page saves lives, I'm convinced. Thank you.

I'm sure you hear this all the time, but at half past midnight (up with you know who) I found your wonderful pages of information. I read every word on newborns and appreciate all the positive and educational information. Thank you.

I think this site is WONDERFUL!! I read it every chance I get!! I only wish I had read more when I was pregnant and had more time! This site has helped me with many questions and concerns. Thank you very much for the great information!

I just wanted to thank you for the very informative information you gave me on the subject of scabies. Very, very informative and helpful! Hope you can continue to help others. Thank you again so much.

I'm sitting here with tears streaming down my face . . . what a beautiful response Dr. Greene wrote to a concerned mother. The more time I spend on your site, the more I appreciate your approach to reaching out to families via the Web . . . There's not one thing I would want to change about what you've created . . .

Since I don't get to see you any more since we've moved, it's great to come visit your web site. And, since I work in this business (we build web sites for businesses), it's particularly interesting. It's a good looking and well designed site, from my point of view, and just filled with stuff I really care about in an easy to find format. Impressive and quite a service!!! Again, thanks for your work!!! I look forward to getting your books when they are available.
Best Regards,
