Who can recommend an excellent US Pediatrician?

I am seeking a pediatrician that someone can recommend for our 1 year old daughter who has been on a USA schedule of immunizations up until now.

Our concern is mainly the clinics control, handling and source of it's immunization shots.

Can someone please help?
Thank you.

(The nationality of the doctor isn't so important as the practices followed. We want someone who follows US//Australian//Canadian//British practices)

Can someone please help?

I agree with Kiterpilot.

Dr Atiya at Al Ahli is amazing! We went through 2 pedi's before for our 9 month old and were disgusted. found her and she has an amazing bedside manner. Plus, she will look at your little one's previous records and work according to what you need (as well as what will be needed for the Qatar schools should you be staying long enough when the tot is ready for school).

Good luck.

I've used 3 different pediatricians here in Doha over the years. All have been very careful to find out what the US immunization schedule is and have worked with me to have my child's shots done accordingly. No problems at all. My advice--find out from the Dr what shots are needed then go to the Abu Hamour vaccination center. All immunizations are FREE there, with only 10QR charge for a vaccination card. Otherwise you could pay hundreds in charges.
