STACIA KENET, MD is the founder of Pediatric Alternatives, opening the office in 1998. She graduated from Tufts University Medical School in Boston, MA, in 1989 and completed her pediatric residency at Oakland Children Hospital, Oakland, CA, in 1992.
In addition to her training in western medicine, Dr. Kenet studied herbal medicine at the Pacific School of Herbal Medicine and is experienced using homeopathic medicine and energy medicine techniques in her practice.Early on in my pediatric career I realized that the disease-focused care I was trained in did not fit my beliefs of how to best care for children, and that we needed a new model.

Go check out their yelp reviews but it seems I am not alone. Doctors are ok but once you get billed by them, be prepared for a vortex where no one writes back for days if ever. Latest example is my credit card being charged but no invoice or receipt. I use One Medical for myself and they are wonderful and get the importance of service and care, not just during a medical visit. Ah well.
