My 3 month old got tested positive for Covid every other ER/Urgent care told me they couldn't see her/ test her. they were ready to see her the same day with literally a 10 min wait. The front desk girl & PA were so helpful they really seemed to care and answered all my questions/ gave me really good feedback and recommendations I'm sad this couldn't be her pediatrician you can tell they really do care! Normally going to a hospital or urgent care they make you feel like you're overreacting or don't take your concerns seriously but they didn't make me feel this one bit. I don't normally write reviews however this really meant a lot to me thank you so much! read more

Dr. Elias and his staff are amazing. They are always helpful and get my son in quickly.

By far one of the best clinics out there, I highly recommend this clinic very friendly staff especially with the kiddos. Thank you to jennifer for helping us. read more

LOVE LOVE LOVE. After having a very rough patch with a pediatrician, i decided it was time to look for another one that would listen to all of my worries/concerns without making it seem like i wasn't asking all the right questions... we found Dr. Rani Elias and WOW! Amazing Doctor. He's super attentive, caring and actually takes the time to help figure out what's best for the child. His office is so clean, kid friendly and his front desk girls are so great!! I've only been here for 2 doctor appointments and i have nothing bad to say! Everyone here is so friendly and understanding. Thank you so much! Highly recommend! read more

Dr. Elias was by far one of the most unprofessional and disrespectful doctors I have ever encountered. When my husband and I were new parents, we took our daughter to his office, eager to learn and make informed decisions about her care -- including vaccines. Instead of offering guidance or understanding, he refused to provide care altogether and dismissed us simply for asking questions. Fast-forward two years later -- after the birth of my son -- Dr. Elias happened to be the on-call doctor at the hospital. Unfortunately, nothing had changed. He was cold, dismissive, and completely lacking in empathy. It's deeply disappointing when a doctor, whose purpose should be compassion and patient care, makes you feel small and unworthy instead. I would not recommend him or his office to anybody. read more

Doctor Elias truly deserves more than 5 stars. He cares deeply about children and their health, and he listens carefully to every detail parents share. I highly recommend him -- he treats children as if they were his own, not just as a doctor. Thank you so much, and I wish you continued success. read more

When I first started coming here in 2020 the quality of service was great. In the years since it has gone down hill. They're always behind schedule and over booked. I arrived for at 4:15 for my 4:30 appointment and there was 5 patients before us still to be seen. It seems like we never get seen in a timely manner anymore. The lobby is a mismatched random collection of furniture and chairs. The books are torn, missing pages and falling apart. There is no pride in the appearance and function of the office anymore. read more

I am absolutely happy to have found Dr Rani Elias. He is very attentive, and the front office staff is very sweet. Reasonable waiting times too if any. read more

This place used to be good. Within the last two years this medical office offered a 5 dollar Starbucks gift card if you left them a five star review with proof. After that, this place got way too busy. They're always about 30 minutes behind, even for just a shot. one of the girl that gives shots, she's a short older Hispanic girl, is absolutely rude and will just stab your baby or toddler. Be prepared for your kid to leave that place screaming. As a previous post mentioned, Dr Rani is HUGE on pushing shots, and his favorite line for pushing a hep B shot (which is an STD) is if your kid gets a haircut and they get cut, hep b could be transferred. Think about that for a minute, first off, if you got to a barber that doesn't follow proper sanitation procedures, that's on you. But really.. you think a toddler is getting a bald fade with a straight razor? This isn't the 80's anymore. I'm sure he's getting a kick back for pushing shots but you'll see him try to belittle you as a parent if you go against medical advice. Anyways, come next open enrollment, I'll be switching insurance and not coming back here. This place is becoming a mess, the quality of employees has gone down hill, and now this is just a money grab that gets kick backs for shots. Yeah, no thanks. To anyone reading this, take these reviews with a grain of salt, this place will offer gift cards for 5 star reviews. read more

DO NOT circumcise your son here. Terrible job literally still looks uncircumcised and looks like the stitches were made to far towards the tip so even when you pull skin back all the way you still can't see crown of the head. On our way to the doctor now because it's also very swollen and red. It's been 5 months since the procedure. Very frustrated. Whatever you do, do not bring your son here for that procedure. I've never left a review anywhere for anything but I couldn't hold back on this. read more

I love the doctor , unfortunatly his front desk staff is unprofessional , not welcoming , and very rude , i will be switching doctors once again due to lack of professionalism . read more

I had a couple bad experiences with previous pediatricians. I found Alta Loma Pediatrics on Yelp, and saw all the great reviews so I decided to start brining my boys here. I have not been disappointed at all. There is always staff available to answer the phone, and phone calls are always returned. Dr. Elias is so nice, never in a rush, and will answer all of your concerns. I would give 10 stars if I could. Highly recommend. read more

so i changed both my son's pediatrician to Dr. Rani Elias . despite the distance ( 30 min drive ) and traffic. on the first appt. : *the front desk is not welcoming. *waiting room small ,but kid friendly . ( activity box & books ) *patient rooms are clean *no trash for diaper changes *the (female doctor) was very helpful, resourceful, patient, supportive and just very understanding to both of my sons needs. * dr. rani elias was supportive of ( the females doctors) notes and referrals, all he did was go over what they needed and that was it. ( not hands on ) * overall i think this doctor office is better than arrowhead hospital when it comes to appointments, referrals and check ups read more

Dr. Elias and his staff are wonderful! We appreciate that he and his staff aren't pushy and always ask if "it's okay" or if the guardian approves rather than saying "no your must!" As some doctors can be. As a new Mom the thought of finding a pediatrician you can trust with your child can be pretty overwhelming. My sister in law recommended Dr. Elias after my son was born but the nurses and Doctors at the NICU at San Antonio Hospital recommended him the day my son was born. We have no regrets either. When my son had a bit of a cold and going through his teething stages I had many questions. I would make a call and his office would call me right back to discuss and answer all my questions right away. He assured me that all the things my son was going through were normal, and it will pass and gave me tips and suggestions to help ease my baby. He and his staff are gentle, polite and respectful. If you're looking for a pediatrician for your newborn or looking for a new office to take your children to I recommend Alta Loma Pediatrics. read more

We have been seeing Dr. Elias since he took over the practice. My children were under one. They are now 5/6 and absolutely love him. We have since moved 45 minutes away but will still continue to drive to see him because of the quality of care he provides. He takes the time to listen to any and all concerns and really addresses them. He and his staff are amazing. read more

1 star for the assistants/front office girls, they were all so nice. Unfortunately, I waited an hour & a half till i saw the DR for him to be rude & rush me out , he left me with unanswered questions & made me feel dumb for even asking. My child sees 8 different specialists & he had no care for not 1 of them. As a PCP you should be keeping up with all your pts specialists. So disappointed that i was fooled with all his "good" reviews & wasted my time here. read more

My son just turned two and has been misdiagnosed twice since being with this office. The first mistake was an ear infection, I mentioned that he was tugging at his ear and was stuffed up but the pediatrician said it was a common cold. I took him to urgent care and they double checked his ears and lo and behold, my mommy gut was right! The second was a viral infection, I took him in on Tuesday because I noticed a white spot on his tonsils, had a fever, super congested, and smelly breath. I was sent home with Tylenol and ibuprofen. Scheduled a follow up on Friday and they finally prescribed me me with an antibiotic.. turns out he has strep throat. A bacterial infection- not a viral infection.. Super frustrating to say the least. Definitely not letting there be a third misdiagnosis!! read more

Dr. Elias and his team have been a blessing. They are quick to place the referrals that they say they will and call you when your insurance approves them. This is so crucial since time is of the essence to try and get appointments with specialists. I'm very happy with my choice to pick him as my sons MD. read more

Melissa, Veronica and staff was a great help in my daughter's first adult appointment. Friendly and kind with answers when asked. read more

Dr. Elias is so knowledgeable and patient. Highly recommend him as a pediatrician. We were assigned a pediatrician after my daughter was born and got lucky enough to get assigned Dr. Ravi Elias. read more

Dr Elias is AMAZING. He never makes us feel judged for bringing our kids in for any reason at all. He listens, he doesn't make us feel rushed, he interacts with the kids really well. He is truly the best. He always takes his time to explain his findings and will stay in the room as long as needed to answer any questions we have. He also doesn't make me feel judged when I say no to the flu shot which I really appreciate. I HIGHLY recommend Dr Elias! read more

I've never felt so comfortable with a doctor for my child so quickly. He is an amazing doctor who took his time with my concerns. I am very lucky to have found this doctor as we have just moved into the area. It is obvious that this is not just a job for him and that he takes it very seriously and personally. Thank you! read more

We love Dr. Rani. He's patient, caring and professional. The front desk are always helpful! I never had any issue with any of them. Most importantly, my son loves this place !! read more

I brought my one month old daughter here because of all the recommendations I got on Dr. Elias! We had our appointment today and I was 100% satisfied with our experience! We saw the PA Kimmy Nguyen and she was just awesome! I had quite a few questions/ concerns and she answered every single one, without making us feel rushed. She was so gentle and caring with my baby as well, same with Dr. Elias. They actually took their time to evaluate my baby unlike other doctors who come in the room for a second, take a look at the baby and then that's the end of the appointment. Front desk could've been a little more welcoming but it's okay, they were still nice! We waited no longer than 10 min to be called back, our appointment was at 9:30AM, by the time we were leaving the waiting room was full, so definitely advice to schedule an early appointment. But everyone in the office was very nice. Not to mention the office was very clean and well put together. Good job Alta Loma Peds, I know a good office when I see one Highly recommend this doctors office for your little one! read more

Dr Elias is very attentive and I appreciate his follow up, after hours calls, and listening to my concerns/answering my questions. He is not pushy or demanding and I feel took my concerns and thoughts into consideration. When I need to make an appointment I am able to do so in a very timely manner. I have always had Kaiser medical, so this was my first experience having to find a pediatrician out of network. I would recommend him to local friends looking for a pediatrician. read more

Great pediatric office. It's clean, the staff is nice. Dr Elias is amazing with his care and listens to any concerns we may have as parents.

The office is very clean, the staff are super nice. Dr Elias is very professional and patient. He answered all my questions. I highly recommend Dr Elias. read more

We've been coming here for a few years now and each time the staff has been super friendly and kind. Dr. Elias is an amazing pediatrician. He has gotten to know my kids and will always ask them what/how they've been feeling. I appreciate that about him because it teaches my kids to speak up and feel comfortable to talk about their health concerns with there doctor. I appreciate him taking the time to get to know his patients. Now a days it's hard to find a doctor office that will take the time to get to know the patients read more

I really was looking for a good doctor for my son. I found a great patient doctor today thank you very much doctor and staff for being caring. Very detailed listened to my concerns. And ver sweet caring heart very clean office too read more

Dr. Elias is so gentle and kind with our newborn. The team is also very welcoming and helpful. We were concerned about our baby's jaundice levels and Dr. Elias not only gave us reassurance that she was okay, he also put a rush on her blood work and called us later in the evening to officially confirm that everything was okay. The office and rooms are all very clean and sanitized after every use. The environment there feels clean and fresh. We are very happy with the experience and team at Alta Loma Pediatrics! read more

Dr Rani Elias is the 4th pediatrician my kids have had as others just weren't the right fit for our family. My kids have been seen by him for over a year now and out of the 4 pediatricians my daughter has seen with me he's the only one that noticed her heart murmur... my kids are adopted through foster care, my husband and I are on Kaiser which he absolutely love but I still go to Alta Loma pediatrics over Kaiser for them because of Dr Rani Elias, he makes sure you get all your questions answered and you can tell he genuinely listens and cares about your concerns when other drs just brush things off as mom anxiety.... The front staff and nurses are always so nice and helpful, never once have I had to deal with phones not being answered, being put on hold for a ridiculous amount of time or them being rude, they're always super friendly and helpful read more

I was referred to Alta Loma Pediatrics almost 2 years ago and I absolutely love this place. Dr. Rani Elias has been treating all 4 of my children now. He is by far best pediatrician I have ever had. He takes his time and he actually cares about all his patients. The staff is incredible. I've always had such great customer service with them and the nurses are awesome! read more

See all

We recently discovered Dr Elias and Alta Loma Pediatrics after a long struggle to find the right doctor. From our first visit here, we knew we were in the right place. Our daughter has a complicated health history, and she needed a knowledgeable and proactive doctor. That is exactly what we found in Dr Elias. Dr Elias takes his time with his patients and is incredibly thorough and thoughtful about the care he provides. He takes time to answer all our questions and makes sure we understand everything he is recommending and why. As a new patient, he has taken time to get to know our daughter and her history. You can tell he cares about his patients. The office staff at Alta Loma Pediatrics is equally helpful, friendly, and thorough. They follow through when they say they will, and they've been incredibly proactive and helpful in connecting us with other specialists and advocating for us. They are friendly and welcoming when we visit, which helps my daughter feel more at ease. I would not hesitate to recommend this practice to anyone looking for a pediatrician. They are helpful, thorough and kind. We are so happy to have found them. read more

Great Pediatric Office! When calling to set up Newborn appointment the front office staff was very welcoming and informative!

NO LONG WAIT times at all! Dr. Elias is super kind, listens & thoroughly answers questions! He is great with the kids & was even welcoming toward my son who wasn't being seen! Highly recommend this office! :) read more

I wish every clinic was ran like Alta Loma Pediatrics. We are so grateful to Dr Elias & all the staff. Extremely caring, helpful, kind, and dependable. We always get reminders for appointments, they are a breeze as far as check in, wait times, etc. Dr Elias has amazing bedside manner and you can tell that he truly cares. Very patient, thorough, and very helpful getting all the referrals I've needed for my son. I've never seen a doctors office communicate so efficiently to get things done, it's truly refreshing and so very appreciated! Everyone represents this office so well. Thank you to all of the staff! read more

Very friendly and professional staff. We came here for our newborn baby check up only, but we'll be bringing our other 2 kids to Dr. Elias. We've been from place to place looking for a good doctor and we think we finally found him. read more

Awesome experience. They were able to see my kids next day. Doctors are very nice and knowledgeable

We love Dr Elias and this practice. Being a first time mom I tend to get worried at every little thing or wonder "is this normal?" Dr Elias has never made me feel silly or dumb and always takes the time to answer our questions and explain things. He never rushes us or makes us feel like just a number. We look forward to continuing to take our daughter to this practice. read more
