Whatever happened to the time when you grew up your whole childhood going to the same doctor, a doctor you knew by name? As a kid when I got sick, I would go see Dr. Harlan, not Pediatric Enterprises, LLC. In my day-- Sorry...old curmudgeon rant over. When we moved to the area a little more than a year ago, one of the first things we did was look for a pediatrician for our family. After having them recommended by several co-workers, we finally found our way to Associated Pediatricians. Generally, we've been very pleased with the care and attention our kids have received at this practice. The physician we have interacted with most, Dr. Campbell, is wonderful. She is excellent with children and is always helpful, respectful, and patient with us parents. The practice itself is well run and efficient. We have always been able to get in for an appointment in a timely manner. When our daughter came down with an eye infection a few weeks ago the day before we were to leave on vacation, they graciously worked us in the same day we called. We have also used their call-in nurses line on several occasions and each time they have patiently worked through our questions and concerns over the phone. If there's one area that I could possibly call attention to, it is the staff here that administer child vaccinations. Each time that we have had vaccines given, the nurses doing it have been hurried and somewhat careless. They were friendly but not very good with children and ended up upsetting them in an already difficult moment. Other than this one issue, we have been very pleased with Associated Pediatricians. We're grateful to have found a caring practice here for our children. read more

Associated Pediatricians - Pediatricians Near Me - Valparaiso, Indiana

Personally not a fan of this office. I took my daughter here after having her and they dismissed all of her symptoms. She was extremely colicky, painful gas, rash on her face that appeared as acne, explosive diarrhea, huge belly, extremely irritated 24/7, & just wouldn't sleep long. The doctors chalked this up to all being normal because she was a newborn & that she'd outgrow it. It turns out my daughter has a dairy & soy intolerance. I cut that out after switching elsewhere & now she is thriving & has none of those symptoms anymore. I would never take my kids back here personally. But I also don't like that you HAVE to follow the vaccine schedule. You can't even delay them if you wanted to see them. read more

This review is for Dr. Bukata. The doctor has no bedside manner and rushes you through your appointments. Treats patients like garbage and makes false statements. For the small amount of reviews it's no wonder they are mostly 1 star. Such a bad vibe from this office. I'm not sure how this doctor even has patients! read more

Thank you so much Dr. Brogan, Nurse Makenna, and BHC Larissa (and a few other helpers) for dealing with my hysterical kid getting her shots yesterday. You were all so patient and kind! read more

The offfice experience was great. All the staff were very friendle and helpfully. The Doctor was very caring read more

Love everyone at Associated Pediatricians. We can always get in when we need to or they call back quickly whenever we have a question. We see Dr Brogan but have seen almost all of them. They are always out and hosting community events. read more

As my kids are getting older and leaving Associated Peds, I wanted to thank everyonehem for the diligent care and attention that was always given to them. The staff was always extremely thorough, especially when my daughter was having some health issues. They even called to check on her and give us updates after business hours. Thank you for all the years of taking great care of my kids, as though they were your own! read more

Worst office staff - can you say rude! I tried to contact the manager Dana multiple times and never a call back. It's fine though, there are many places that DO care for their patients and I'll just go there, gladly and that's my review. read more

So happy to see such amazing doctors and nurse practitioners in the Valparaiso community! It is clear that the physicians at Associated Pediatricians care about the overall health and wellbeing of every child. All of the staff seem to be happy, helpful, and overall caring. read more

Was told by the doctor we were "selfish" for not getting the COVID vaccine right when it became available. Then proceeded to berate us the entire appointment. read more

I wish I could give them higher than 5 stars! We cannot say enough good things about Dr. Brewer. My son saw her because he was experiencing a cough and felt a tightness in his chest and she ordered a chest X-ray. The technician reported that his lungs checked out fine and due to her knowledge and expertise, she asked them to look at the x-ray again-this time with the idea that he might have a spontaneous pneumothorax. Upon checking again, he did indeed have a collapsed lung. Dr. Bukata is who our sons see for their yearly check-up. Dr. Bukata knew all about the pneumothorax because it had happened again and was instrumental in getting him back to Comers for another procedure. Within that same week we went to see him for my other son's wellness check. I was blown away by his professionalism during this visit. We already loved him but in this visit he began the visit only focused on my son who was there, without any mention of my other son and what had been going on the past two weeks. He was thorough, and we were not rushed at all in his exam. Upon completion of the wellness visit, he asked my son if he had any questions. Only after completing the wellness check fully did he then turn to me and inquire about my other son and how he was doing. I loved that my son who was there was given 100% of the doctor's attention before any other talk about his brother. Very professional and kind. In addition to the phenomenal care we received, both doctors called me personally to check on my son's progress while he was in the hospital. This office is FULL of caring staff, knowledgeable doctors, and professionalism. I recommend them to everyone! read more

We have used Associated Pediatricians to take care of our daughters since 2009. The doctors and nurses are good. The office staff however are atrocious. I recently changed jobs and my new insurance went into effect Feb1. My 4 yo daughter was in a lot of pain with a really bad ear ache on Feb 6. When my wife took her in she informed them that our insurance had changed. When they ran the card there was some issue on BCBSs end that wouldn't allow Associated to verify coverage. We had physical proof of insurance and explained that it was a computer issue on BCBSs end and it was in the process of being taken care of. The extremely rude office workers told my wife "You don't have insurance ". They then proceeded to tell her she could pay everything in full on the spot or they would not see my daughter. After almost 15 years of taking my girls here this is the treatment we get. A pediatricians office that actually cares about children and knows a family and that we have always had insurance and paid every copay on time would help your crying child and straighten out the payment later. If you want to be treated horribly by the office staff and office manager, be called a liar, and have your sick child told to leave or pay in full on the spot then Associated Pediatricians is your place. Additionally the office personnel refuse to return calls and will not let you speak to a doctor. We got her into another pediatrician in town the same day. read more

After working many years as the head nurse at Associated Peds I can attest to the caring and loving nature they have for children. They all are extremely knowledgeable and have connections to the large teaching hospitals in Chicago and Indianapolis when additional care is needed. I would recommend them without reservations. read more

I would absolutely recommend them! My son is a reoccurring patient of Dr. Brewer and I have to say we absolutely adore her! This is an awesome practice with great staff. I've only had one issue which was with insurance. Thankfully, the gal in charge of billing and claims was prompt and explained everything thoroughly. read more

There can't possibly be a worse medical facility out there. Countless times they have dropped the ball. Our youngest son is autistic. Associated Ped's simply has to "sign off" on some paperwork periodically so that my son can receive the therapy that he needs. Which means they sign a piece of paper (digitally I'm sure) and hit send on a computer. Recently they couldn't do so....for weeks as a matter of fact. And now my sons paperwork has expired. Not to mention they hung up on my wife while she was respectively trying to straighten out the matter. My wife is also a registered nurse that works in critical care. Kind of a big deal. Each time one of our three sons is ill to the point where it concerns my wife, she contacts our so called pediatrician. And each time, they make her feel like she's overreacting. A critical care RN...overreacting, really? At this point, my biggest regret is that we didn't change pediatricians sooner. STAY AWAY FROM ASSOCIATED PED's. Especially now that Dr. Miller has retired.... read more

We took our two children there (ages 2 and 1) since they were born. We always felt like the visits were rushed and usually had a long wait time for each visit. Both of my kids had appointments back to back (2 year visit and 9 month visit). The doctor we were seeing seemed very agitated with during the whole visit and seemed in a hurry. At the end of the visit, they checked the kids lead levels, which would only take 15 minutes for results to come back and we could leave afterwards. We waited in the room for over an hour, not hearing from anyone. We walked out of the room after waiting and the doctor questioned why we were still there. The nurse had forgot to let us know the results so we could leave. At the beginning of this month, both the kids had a cold. The receptionist on the phone had told us to be at the office at 12:15. We arrived at 12:00pm and were called back into a room by 12:05. The nurse got both the kids vitals/intake and said she would meet us back in the room. We walked back to the room, alone, and did not hear from neither doctors or nurses for over an hour. We walked out of the room and told the staff we were leaving and going to urgent care, because that was unnecessary to leave two crying, unhappy children in a room without an update on how long the wait would be. One of the nurses yelled, "sucks for you!" as we were walking out. Totally unprofessional and uncalled for. read more

Doctor would not listen to our concerns about our youngest not talking and refused medication to for our oldest because after three years the doctor finally decided we needed to see an expensive specialist, but we needed the time to save money. read more

My boys have been patients here for as long as I can remember and they're 16 and 11. I've had a few things happen over the years that have irritated me but my latest encounter with this office has guaranteed we won't be patients there any longer and I've already made the switch to a new doctor. I have a $30 charge from my youngest sons well visit in June that is normally covered 100% and when I called last week to talk to billing about it, the lady was RUDE as can be, kept talking over me & hung up on me when I asked her name. Their office manager called me back today and said I signed a form at his appointment saying they may or may not do extra screenings at his appointment and these things may or may not be covered by insurance so I'm stuck with this bill because they did a "special" eye exam. They even went as far as to put in our notes that it was done because we don't see any eye doctor which is totally untrue and made up. She made the mistake of telling me that I'm not the only parent to complain about this charge and that she couldn't help it that I didn't read the form I signed. As I told her, I'll pay the $30 but it's costing your office two long term patients because of it. Wish I could post this to their Facebook page too but they've taken that option away, I wonder why.... read more

I have brought my son here since the day he was born and he is now seven. Every time I go in I pay my co-pay since we do have insurance and I have had no problems. However the last few times I went in, I knew that I had a balance of $15 and I offered to pay it and the secretary told me I didn't owe anything at that time. Then I got a letter in the mail saying that I owed $15, I didn't have the money so I didn't pay it right away, then I got a couple more letters and I went online and paid the $15. However apparently that was for another bill that I had in the network that was not specified online and I thought it was taken care of because of this. When they called me asking if I would like to make the payment because it was going to collections I told them I already did and they said they do not see it and that I must have paid another bill from another doctors office. I understand that this is what happened however, I paid the $15 over the phone right there and she informed me after I paid that my son could no longer be a patient there. And I said "what do you mean I paid the $15 and I tried to pay it previously and was told I owed nothing." She didn't care and told me that he was no longer allowed to visit the office. I completely understand that they don't want patients that can't pay their bills however after seven years and numerous future visits that I would have made to this office I feel like $15 is a ridiculous reason to fire a client especially over a misunderstanding. I have since moved away and I am glad I don't have to deal with this office anymore due to this ridiculous event. read more

This place will never get a good review from me. I worked very hard to find a doctor to help treat my daughter with a rare disease. I worked for months to get the records to them. I was told that Dr. Bishop was willing to work with us. After taking time off work to see them, I was dismissed from the office after Dr. Bishop bad mouthed every doctor we had been to (even though she had never worked with any of them) and pretty much called me a bad mother for doing all that I had done for child. I have cried and prayed for years to make the right choices for my child and for a person that knows nothing of the disease to question a highly regarded doctor in Chicago shows me that this office is close-minded to the advancements in disease and treatment. read more

My favorite pediatrician office would recommend it to anyone has great doctor and loving staff.

Some of the doctors are great; I have been taking my kids to Associated Peds since they were born. But the staff are so often rude and unhelpful, I hate calling there. read more

I love associated pediatricians. I take both my kids there, we especially love Dr. Brogan. Sure there are some doctors we prefer over the others but for a practice as a whole, I think they do a great job. You'll always have people complaining about this and that if one thing goes wrong. But I have 5 years with the practice and am satisfied. read more
