We love this doctors office so much. We drive from Southeast Raleigh to them because they're so great!

My girl had ear infection and Dr. prescribed an antibiotic. She got stomach ache. So Dr called me to come back to see her. but next day, that Dr. was not available and ended up see another Dr. $ 160 for the first visit and then changing medication for side effect was $ 250. So total $ 410.00 was paid for that medication for ear infection. I am a nurse and I don't get it that changing medication is higher level of practice. Better to get alternative prescription at the first visit. read more

Village Peds is the best pediatrics service I have ever found. Dr. Gush and her colleagues take the time to provide a standard of care that is virtually unheard of in our current healthcare system. They don't pile patients one on top on another, and actually take the time to listen to (and address) your questions and concerns. They have Saturday and extended day hour to accomodate "real life" schedules. They have never not worked my child in, they purposefully keep the schedule light to allow for same day appointment and have walk-in service in the a.m. If you have a child with Autism or any other special needs, this is the ONLY place to go. The staff is well trained to work with our kiddos, are very patient, flexible and most importantly knowledgeable about developmental disabilities. Dr. Gush is especially well-versed in Autism Spectrum Disorders and she and her staff will go the extra mile to make sure that our children are getting the highest standard of care be it medical, educational, etc. They accept most every insurance including Medicaid and Tricare and Jon, the office manager, has a wealth of knowledge to share regarding referrals and insurance questions. I only wish that I could find an adult doctor who is as thorough and professional as my son's pediatrician. read more

We have been going here since my son was born, over 2 years ago. I highly recommend them to anyone we know with kids! The front office staff is always helpful and friendly. Kathy, the office manager, is superb - always going above and beyond when dealing with insurance, referrals- anything!! The nurses have always been kind, patient, and helpful. We have seen all 4 doctors and they are all amazing!! Everyone is helpful, patient, and willing to take the time to care for your child and make sure your questions are answered. Love this place! read more

Short version: absolutely love everyone here - Front office everyone is super helpful, very patient and willing to reschedule - even if you need to reschedule twice and I love their online portal All the nurses are amazing and really incredible at getting your extremely shy kid to open up All the doctors we've met have also been amazing Long version: we moved here from Colorado in November and as much as I loved our hippie pediatrician there they lacked the bedside manner. At 3 year olds last check up, he got so upset he threw up and they didn't even apologize. I was a bit nervous moving to the south but I've been proven wrong. I called the first time and a doctor answered the phone and said we could come in that afternoon without an appointment - from there they really won me. The waiting area is very clean and my kids actually look forward to playing with all the toys. The rooms are also always very clean. Only once have we had to wait a long time but I think that's pretty normal - and we had toys to play with. We went for a check up today and the nurse got my 3 year old to open up and joke along while I was tending to his younger sister. What an incredible relief to see him actually cooperating and not feeling pressured/stressed to the point of panic crying. He said he had fun! We love village pediatrics - totally worth the drive from Durham! Also side note, they're super breastfeeding friendly and never even ask about weaning my 15 month old. I love them! read more

Beware of Edith Bernosky! We started taking our kids to this practice after reading glowing reviews. We saw Dr. Gush, who was OK, and Dr. Fitzsimmons, who was great. However, at some point, the receptionist started pushing Edith Bernosky on us. After a few not-so-great experiences with her (she was flaky, rude, and self-absorbed), we asked to see a different doctor. Because of scheduling issues, we were forced to have her again. This time it was awful. Out of the blue, she started throwing at us a series of diagnoses, which were scary, bizarre, and contradictory. It was obvious she just wanted us to keep coming back, so that the practice could charge our insurance while she rules out each far-fetched scenario. A pediatrician's office should not operate like a shady car shop. Obviously we will not go back. read more

I called to get my daughter seen and was told that her doctor Edith Bernosky was no longer there. We will miss Dr. B, she was awesome! She always took her time and answered all my questions. She called me at home several times once to check on my son when he had a fever. We have had several doctors but she was the best. read more

We used Village Peds for the first year and a half of my daughter's life, until we had to move. We loved our experience there with Dr. Fitz-Simmons! She's so sweet and always more than willing to answer any and all of the many questions first time moms have. Also, Cathy, who manages the insurance billing, was super helpful and patient in working with us when we switched insurance and were having some billing issues. I would definitely recommend Village Pediatrics if you're looking for a small, caring practice in the Chapel Hill area! read more

Everything about Village Peds is phenomenal! We have been going there for 12 years & couldn't be happier. Every doctor, nurse, administrator, & receptionist treats us like family, going above & beyond in every interaction. We love them all so never have to worry about who will be in the office when we arrive. They're so terrific that I sometimes just stop by to say hi & they always make my day. When our daughter was in the hospital, Dr. Gush made herself available at all hours. When our son had special medical issues, Dr. Gush & Jorge went out of their way to make sure he got the care & treatment he needed. All the communication is wonderfully pleasant & helpful. Kathy, the office manager, is on top of everything so never any need to worry about forms or paperwork. The entire staff genuinely care about our whole family's well-being, which is an extraordinary gift for which we will always be grateful. We can't say enough good things about Village Peds! & as a bonus, they have been fantastic about making terrific recommendations for other medical providers, including for adults. Definitely check them out! It will be the best decision you can make for you & your child. read more
