My daughter tried calling this office shortly after 5:00 because her one year old baby had a fever that was spiking and when she gave him Tylenol he projectile vomited his entire bottle twice in a day. I find it very disturbing that a well established pediatrician office does not have an on call doctor available to treat sick children. My children were all patients at Pediatric Associates and I was so pleased when my daughter decided to use this practice for her own child.

Apparently the service provided then was far superior to what is provided now. Your recorded announcement stresses how your staff should be treated with kindness and respect, yet I don't think the same is true for how your patients are treated by your staff. I believe that at the very least, first time parents who are nervous the first time their child gets sick, should be able to speak with an on call doctor to help alleviate their anxiety during a time of need.

If Pediatric Associates cannot provide that, I'm sure there are other practices who can! I'm so very disappointed in PA and I'm sure that the beloved Dr. Joy who started this practice, would be also!

I've been coming to this practice for the past 15 years and love all the doctors, especially Dr Sterry. She is a mom to kids around the same age as mine and I feel so comfortable talking with her without feeling like I'm being lectured or being told I'm doing something wrong as a parent. In the 15 years I've been going there I've never had a bad experience until recently when I saw Andrea the PA to get both my kids tested for covid which is why i took off a star.

My 6 year old has ADHD and sensory issues so it's not easy for him to sit in a room for 20+ mins without getting a little stir crazy. He picked up the thing they use to test your reflexes and she scolded him to put it down. Then he was touching the spinning chair to which she asked him to stop because those were expensive and she moved it so he wasn't tempted to touch it. Then he was touching the decals on the walls and again she told him to stop because they spent a lot of time decorating the office. She should not be working with children if this is how she is going to treat them. We will continue to go there but I will never have her see my kids again.

Doctors are great but I just feel they are super super money minded stingy as a business. Nickel and diming on everything. Camp forms. Even charging for sending transfer of records. That stuff doesn't leave a good taste in kinda of parents

Great health professionals. Caring, friendly, and a patient team. They're very welcoming too new patients. I would highly recommend there educated solutions, given with a smile too anyone looking for excellent healthcare, in a friendly atmosphere for their children.

Working in the medical field this office is HORRIBLE. They never told me my now 6 yo had a heart murmur when he was born. They had on our records my husband was deceased, and my father had a stroke, which is both FALSE. Then they want to lecture me for over an HOUR when I wanted to space out my 6month olds vaccine bc "They care about my child" but you forgot to mention my child was suppose to see a cardiologist 6 years ago! Now trying to transfer care and they want to charge for my childs medical records AND they can't even fax it I have to pick it up. Funny.

I love Pediatric Associates! Friendly staff and great doctors and PAs. We love Dr. Gropper and Joe the PA!

I love this practice! I have been taking my son here since he was a newborn and the doctors have been very helpful and attentive. Also the lactation consultant at this office is amazing and she helped me a lot in the early days.
