5 Novi Pediatricians Named 'Mom Approved' Best Docs

These doctors are honored for their work at Novi pediatric clinics by Metro Parent readers.

Novi pediatricians Vinaya Gavini, Sheryl Hirsch, Colleen L. Miele, Anne-Marie Romanik-Patenaude and Daniel Rosenberg are recognized as some of the best in metro Detroit.

Metro Parent's "2013 Mom Approved Docs Best Doctors in Southeast Michigan" list looks at the best family health-care providers in Oakland, Wayne, Macomb and Washtenaw counties. The five pediatricians' patients nominated them for a spot on the list of 120 doctors released earlier this year.

Vinaya Gavini

Novi's Gavini Pediatric Clinics, 2850 Providence Parkway-Suite 300

"He is knowledgeable and has a great way with kids. His staff is caring and makes every visit a pleasant one," said his patient Rosie R., according to Metro Parent.

Sheryl Hirsch

Novi's Twelve Oaks Pediatrics, 41935 West 12 Mile Road-Suite 102.

Hirsch's patient Diane C., of Wixom, told Metro Parent that she helped her son, who was born weighing just over one pound, grow and stay healthy. 

"When he was really sick, she gave me her home and cell number. Several times she has called me from her cell phone on her way home from work. I cannot say enough about Dr. Hirsch. She is a terrific person and doctor, and my son and I are very blessed to have found her," she said, according to Metro Parent.

"Her gentle hand and softness has always kept our son relaxed and comfortable while visiting the office. My favorite part is when Dr. Miele lets Camden listen to her heartbeat before she listens to his. She also always checks his Woody doll's ears and nose! Love you!" said her patient Angela R., of Linden, Mich., according to Metro Parent.
