One star is TOO much credit for this place! I agree with other reviewers of this place being a JOKE! Do NOT take your sick children here you're better off to the ER if you think it's an emergency. I wish I would have looked at the reviews before WASTING TIME AND $5O for absolutely nothing. Worst pediatrics services ever and such a shame it's in my Naperville area.

This place is a joke. The receptionist is super unprofessional as well. Made an appointment for 11 am. Came at the same time with a woman who has an appointment for 11:15. The receptionist started checking it 11:15 appointment before checking me in. After the checked me in she said the wait time is 20-30 minutes because of that lady who came before me but had a later appointment. Excuse me? I'm supposed to sit in a room with 10 SUPER COUGHING KIDS for 30 minutes considering I made an appointment?
Very very very unprofessional place. And the receptionist that giggled when I asked to cancel the appointment because I'm not putting my 2 year old at risk of cross contamination or covid waiting for 30 minutes for the appointment I HAD SCHEDULED in advance. Super frustrated

PARENTS BE AWARE! Came in on 11/27/21 for the foot pain, the Xray was performed and doctor said it is NEGATIVE for any fractured bones or any acute abnormalities. Was told to give child Motrin. A week later pain was the same, we took our daughter to the orthopedic doctor, brought X-rays given by this facility (PM PEDIATRICS) and new doctor said PM Pediatrics missed the broken bone, we did new X-rays and it clearly showed Fracture, Metatarsal(s) that's not healing well.
Because of this delayed diagnosis my daughter is still dealing with terrible consequences and we don't see the end to it. I really hope this review can save someones child from the misery that my daughter experiencing still due to PM Pediatrics negligence. STAY AWAY from this facility if you don't want to get misdiagnosed.

Terrible experience in here. I brought my daughter for an urgent care last Thur as fever but no coughing/running nose and the doctor almost did nothing and just roughly told me to go back home and monitor. Actually, I wanted to give an 0 star but no option.

I made an appt for my kids for Covid tests through SoLv app and My husband brought them there. The staff member told him that it's a full check up plus Covid tests for each kid and that they need a card on file just in case the insurance doesn't cover the visit. My husband corrected them that it was only a Covid test. They still insisted so my husband just cancelled it because we've had Covid tests done in the past at other immediate care facilities and never have they asked for a card on file.
I also pre-checked in both kids and uploaded the insurance information on the app with the photo of the card included and they still asked for the insurance info at check in. So my husband cancelled and left. I took them to Kids urgent care the following day in Wheaton and they just did the test, even saw the doctor to check them real quick, and they didn't ask for a credit card or anything else. They also did both the rapid and regular PCR test. So I will never take my kids to PM pediatrics again.
