Picking a Pediatrician

I haven't chosen ours yet, but here are some of the things I'll consider or want to ask when choosing:

• Is the doctor conveniently located?
• Are office hours convenient, including weekends and evenings?
• Does the doctor have partners, and is someone always on call?
• How quickly will a doctor call you back?
• Do they accept my insurance?
• What are the doctor's hospital affiliations?
• Will the doctor come to see the baby after she is born?
• What are the doctor's child-rearing philosophies?
