There's a great one in East Brunswick, in the medical complex on Brier Hill Court. Maybe call Bikur Cholim for specifics.

Thank you

My pediatrician recommended preferably Dr. Brian N. Campolattaro or Dr. Engel, however they're both far, and was wondering if there's someone closer who everyone uses..

Eta: more of a jersey care question, but this Dr campollatro, has an office in Manhattan, would Jersey care cover if we saw him there?

They're both far is relative. A friend of mine went to Georgia. I've been to CHOP and Hopkins so I didn't mind going to Engel.

True, bezh it's nothing major, just trying to rule something out and allay any fears.. was hoping to find something closer.. it is what it is..

You're right that it probably won't work, but this would actually be amazing. It's so hard to get around town, especially for teens who can't drive.

Forget about safety,

Forget about safety?!

[rant]
I avidly biked around Lakewood for close to three years. I had lights on my bike, and wore a vivid orange hunting sweater. I biked plenty outside Lakewood; to Freehold and on long side roads in Jackson and Howell. I never got in a close call in Freehold, Jackson or Howell. In Lakewood I got into more close calls than I can count. And many types of accidents: One person pulled away from a stop sign and hit me. Twice I was run into a tall curb that I couldn't jump and landed on the floor (and both times the person had no idea and drove away). (Dont know how many times I managed to stay on the bike when cars swerved into me or turned without blinkers). Got doored on route nine by the sixth street monsey tours bus stop, went head over heads over the door. I'm sure there's more I can remember.

Lakewood people general are terrible drivers and hit scuff and scratch cars all day, and a biker getting hit even lightly can end up much worse than a car (when I got hit I ended up in middle of the street with cars passing by).

Electric bikes are much faster and harder to handle than a manual bike. I can't imagine what calamitys will happen because of this.

I hear I guess I could be wrong. I didn't think it would be so bad.
I think he meant BESIDES for safety, not to actually forget
I wrote it to mean both ways as I didn't want to get into it. I actually had in mind that it won't be dangerous. But from grodnokings experience it could be I'm wrong.

Thanks everyone for the help.

I'm being told now I need to get a diagnosis from a optometrist then be referred to the the ophthalmologist, referral from the pediatrician isn't enough.
Is this a new thing, anyway around it?
