The whole staff and every physician I have encountered are amazing! Everyone is very professional and compassionate! They really calm my nerves with any questions or concerns I may have. I cannot recommend them enough! They even have a YouTube page which is highly informative.

I would definitely recommend progressive pediatrics to anyone looking for a pediatrician. Dr. polak is very patient, explains necessary information in a clear way and easy to reach incase you have any questions outside of your visit. In the past four years that my son has been a patient, I've only had pleasant experiences at progressive pediatrics.

We are happy with the whole staff and especially with Dr. Madray. She takes her time explaining things and answering any questions we have during or after appointments. She is also very kind with our newborn during check ups and makes our baby and us feel comfortable. We definitely recommend this whole team. Also, the wait time is not long at all!

We are so happy we found Dr Madray! As first time parents, she has helped us feel comfortable and confident in our decision making. She is very knowledgeable and is patient with our sometimes ridiculous questions. Most importantly, she is extremely kind and is very good with our daughter. Everyone at the practice that we have interacted with has been great. Would highly recommend them!

Always great. Dr Pollack has been my son's doctor for over 14 years. She's highly intelligent, clearheaded, connected. She listens and I couldn't recommend her more highly. We've never waited more than 15 minutes, really more than 10 minutes for an appointment in the office. Top honors!
