Dr. Roberts is a peds. pulmonologist in Anchorage. You may be forced to use him, as there are no others of that specialty in the state. That having been said, we adore him and miss him now that we've moved. He is long practicing and has a wealth of experience. Our son had been treated by primary care pediatricians for multiple pneumonias and had long term stays at Elmendorf Hospital. (No peds ward there) It was not until consults with Dr. Roberts that our son started getting better. His pediatricians just threw antibiotic after antibiotic at him with no resulting improvements in his O2 sats. Dr. Roberts uses some 'old school' treatments and some up to the minute things in unison. He is a dry personality, not super warm and cuddly. Initially, I was put off by that. However, in the high cost climate of Alaskan medicine and the low payments insurances give him, he accepts patients of all types and financial means. Dr. Robert's heart is with the care and treatment of his patients. He was available to us at all times. (We didn't get that from any of our pediatricians.) His office staff is wonderful! We are eternally grateful to Dr. Roberts.
