Pediatric Associates took care of our child from newborn to early childhood. We switched to a practice closer to home, but after seeing the online campaign started by an anti masker/anti vaxxer we wanted to show some support. Our experiences at Pediatric Associates were overwhelmingly positive. For anyone checking reviews, I suggest you take a look at Katie's other reviews- she seems to have some, um, issues with all the small businesses she visits and a clear Covid denier agenda.

Prior to the pandemic I had nothing but wonderful things to say about this practice. We loved almost all the doctors & felt they took our children's whole self into consideration when treating them. The pandemic changed that. Our children spent 2 years struggling in NYC under strict measures no other developed nation implemented. Like closing schools & masking toddlers. One doctor completely agreed with us but "wouldn't go against the city". Pediatricians enabled child abuse and this large practice was part of the problem in NYC.
They should be ashamed. We have left the same and found a practice that understands the WHOLE child is important and fights for kids. Update: You all have my contact information - feel free to call me to discuss. There is no way to easily give feedback to the doctors, I've tried.

Read the bad reviews before visiting this place. You have to think twice before decide about your children health. I was there with my friend and i really was very impressed from the unprofessional work and the arrogance they treat their newborn patients. It was not about the mask at all. It was about us, waiting with an undressed 4 days newborn baby for the doctor, for more than 30 minutes (and this is recorded from us with video).
The assistant of the doctor let us in and told us undress the baby because the doctor will see you in a couple of minutes. I highly recommended to READ ALL THE BAD REVIEWS FIRST, because they are all telling the truth.

My wife and I highly recommend Pediatric Associates of NYC. Having been new parents our choosing a pediatrician happened by chance. When our first daughter delivered at NYU the tending doctor was from Pediatric Associates of NYC we were moved by his care so I tracked which practice it was. The office really puts your fears at ease. After one week of our girl being discharged she wasn't eating and was crying the practice was open on Easter Sunday for sick visits.
We even tried changing pediatricians at one point because we moved and after our 2nd daughter was born the year after back we came to Pediatric Associates of NYC. Great doctors like Dr. Horwitz, Dr. Leus, Dr. Putter and the list goes on, late night calls and open even on New Years Day for sick visits. Thank you.

I recommend that parents find another provider. Not nice staff. Doctors are either burned out from pandemic or simply do not care about their patients. It's run like a factory. In and out and no empathy

We switched over to Pediatric Associates after a bad experience with another local practice back in December 2019 and we've loved every doctor that we've ever interacted with. All the doctors are exceptional, caring and have fantastic bedside manners. Just stellar group of doctors. A big shout out to Dr. Boehm. My 3.5 year old son just adores her. She's so knowledgeable, caring, amazing bedside manners, and just has a way with kids.
My son has seen most of the doctors at this practice and his favorite doctor is Dr. Boehm. On one of his visits, sweet and amazing Dr. Boehm had told him that he needs to apply a lot of lotion because of his dry skin and every so often my son will tell us that he needs to apply a lot of lotion because Dr. Boehm told him that it will make his skin better. She gives great advise, never rushes you and is a very good listener. We love her.
