Dr. Alejo is very unprofessional. I really wanted to like her but after it took us 4 weeks to get an appointment with her and then she NO SHOWED to our appointment that we were very much looking forward to. I determined that she doesn't respect our family's time and it is a poor reflection on her professionalism (or lack thereof). She was also very condescending in the phone message she left and did not even address me by my name in the VM. I will NOT be working with Dr. Alejo and would not recommend her to anyone. Also other reviews here have confirmed that she is like this with other patients.so disappointing!

I love everything about Reading Pediatrics! They truly care about our daughters well-being. They are honest with their advice. Their new urgent care office for sick calls takes some of the stress off keeping our kids healthy. Thank you Reading Pediatric Associates!

Best place Hands down. Love the doctors here and their on call system. Seen both Dr. NICK & DR. MIN. love that they have med students. Didn't love that I had to repeat my issues in detail to 3 different people at her checkup : nurse, med student then doctor. It was exhausting. Also 1 nurse that is condescending. I'm in my 30s & work with children & she talks to me like I'm 18.

Everyone is always so helpful. We love Dr Min, she always makes the kids and myself feel at ease. She always provides great feedback and recommendations. We never feel rushed, she truly does care about their well being as well as the entire families.

My son has been going here since he was born (2 years). Everyone here is wonderful, from Dr Nick and Darcy to the front desk team and the billing dept. We've been twice with pandemic protocols and they are above and beyond. I have recommended them to several friends and family members with children.

My family loves Reading Pediatrics and especially Dr. Min! The staff, nurses, and doctors are caring, efficient and really take the time to address any and all issues. They have decades of experience and I'd recommend them without hesitation. Post-Corona, the procedures and safety measures were excellent. I felt extremely safe and so did my son.
