I changed providers and that one suggesting trying different formulas and wasn't making sense or listening to me when I said we had already tried cutting out allergens. I was also concerned because my baby was bruising easily and quite pale, and I was severely anemic at the time of delivery, I thought maybe she was too. They kept refusing to draw blood and then they finally did and told me "hemoglobin is within normal range". I didn't believe them and asked for the number. 9.0. I ended up utilizing some online resources that suggested my baby 1- had silent reflux or GERD, and 2- was definitely anemic as hemoglobin of 9.0 is not normal. We ended up changing to the Park West location and I really had to twist the doctor's arm to prescribe my baby famotidine or omeprazole as a trial. That doctor became nasty with me and said "if you're willing to chance the side effects then fine". My baby was in severe pain, not sleeping and losing her voice. The famotidine prescription changed her life. She was no longer in pain and turned into a happy baby. Additionally WIC suggested enfamil AR - pleasant peds never mentioned this - and that helped immensely as well, plus the anemia subsided. At our final visit the doctor suggested we allow our baby to scream and cry inconsolably for a night or two to make her sleep thru the night and told us not to feed her until morning even if she wakes to eat. She was an infant at the time. We walked away and never looked back.

As a retired Registered Nurse, I was very impressed with this Pediatrician Group. The wait time was minimal. Celia, the Nurse or Medical Assistant was awesome- very knowledgeable and kind. The office is decorated very cute. Dr. Bennett was thorough and gave my daughter time to ask questions. Dr. Bennett actually started Estrella Pediatric Group in 2005, and his experience shows. I really liked his style of communication and he was very gentle with my grandson's physical exam. Celia gave my grandson's first set of immunizations and did an amazing job. When we left, we were given a print out with my grandson's weight, height and record of visit. I highly recommend Estrella Pediatric Group!

The time savings are amazing. Not to mention, when Dr. Gabe comes to your home, your kids are so much more comfortable and truly act like themselves.

Before it was called MVP kid, back then they couldn't figure out my sons none stop cough and sent…read moreme out to see a specialist. The specialist called me and said "we don't take your son diagnosis " . I was puzzled because from what I know my son wasn't diagnosed with anything as of yet. They said the referral was sent with "pulmonary edema" meaning water in the lungs. I called MVP kids and said "I'm sorry about that , would you like for us to fix it and resend it ?" Ummmm... what kind of question is that ?! Anyways, I decided not to go back. Recently, my kid got sick again with fever and ear aches and found out they were under a new management. I thought " maybe that's changed" I came to this office 3 times with fever . One ear infection and now double ear infection. I decided to get all the records and take him to PCH and they said they shouldn't have given me such a low dose (twice) on antibiotics. AND he decided to follow up on the earl infections , arbor doesn't care. I don't want my kids to have to see the dr so many time within a month. Save you some time and find something better. I'll drive far if it take someone to actually listen. ALSO, my sister came her when she was a pre teen . Was sick up and down and they kept saying a cold or strep or even mono.... Turns out she had lupus and was diagnosed at PCH. What kind of practice is this?!

I can't express enough gratitude for the exceptional care provided by Dr. Laura Van Tassel. From…read morethe moment we stepped into her office when she was working at her prior practice, it was evident that she possesses an extraordinary level of expertise and genuine compassion for her young patients. She even attended the adoption finalization court hearing for our son to show her support for us. What doctor does that? Amazing! Dr. VT's warm and friendly demeanor immediately put us at ease, creating a positive and comfortable environment during each visit. Her ability to communicate complex medical information in a way that parents can easily understand is truly commendable. She's got a great sense of humor and always puts a smile on our face. What sets Dr. VT apart is her unwavering commitment to the well-being of children. She goes above and beyond to ensure that every concern is addressed thoroughly, taking the time to listen attentively to both parents and little ones. Her dedication to preventive care is evident through her proactive approach, providing valuable guidance on nutrition, development milestones, and overall wellness. You don't see this often anymore in the medical world driven by an insurance cost model. Oftentimes, doctors are so overloaded with patients they are forced to rush you in and out. She spends the time to truly get to know you and your kids. In moments of illness or uncertainty, Dr. VT's accessibility and responsiveness have been a source of great reassurance. Her prompt attention to urgent matters reflects a genuine concern for the health and happiness of her young patients. Now that she's started Home Base Pediatrics she's been even faster at responding when our sons are sick. It's so incredibly amazing to have a pediatrician who can travel to your home so you don't have to worry about lugging sick kiddos around. Choosing Dr. Laura Van Tassel as our pediatrician has been one of the best decisions for our family. We wholeheartedly recommend her to any parent seeking not just a medical professional, but a caring partner in their child's health journey. Thank you, Dr. VT, for being a true gem in pediatric care!

He has stood by us through some incredibly tough times, consistently showing genuine care and compassion that I have never encountered in another provider. We feel truly blessed to have him not only as my son's doctor but as a trusted friend. What sets Dr. Hartsook apart is his ability to communicate; he explains every situation in a way that is easy to understand, avoiding confusing medical jargon and ensuring we are fully informed. Despite how busy he is--often booked months in advance because he is so highly sought after--we have never once felt rushed. Every appointment feels personal and thorough. You can truly tell when a provider is passionate about their work, and his love for what he does shines through in every interaction with his patients and their families. While we are partial to Dr. Hartsook, the entire team at West Valley Pediatrics is outstanding. Every medical provider here is amazing, and I am confident that anyone choosing a doctor at this practice will be highly satisfied. If you are looking for exceptional care for your child, I cannot recommend Dr. Hartsook and West Valley Pediatrics highly enough.
