    Potomac Pediatrics - The awesome fish tank!

    This is the Pediatric practice that we have been taking our kids to for the past few years and we…read morehave been very happy with the practice. They are well organized and the staff is very professional. Making an appointment is okay too and we are able to get an appointment in a few days if not the same day if the kids are feeling unwell. During the COVID pandemic, this practice has been a godsend to schedule COVID testing and getting the vaccine. They even allow parents to get tested for COVID and get the vaccine/boosters as well. Making an appointment for these are easy and we are able to make it online! There is ample parking for patients and the clinic has an entrance from the outside of the building as well. There is a nice big fish tank that always gets the kids' attention. They also have the best coffee/hot chocolate machine that we always get a beverage from during a visit. Definitely a good pediatric practice in the area!

    I took my kids here a while back, and this review is long overdue. When we first started, I had…read morethree young children, and the "non-covered service" fee was $35 per child. I stayed because I liked one of the doctors, but after she left, I remained longer than I should have. Over the years, this fee increased steadily. At first, one of the justifications for the fee was "hazardous removal service," but that explanation later disappeared from their list of reasons. Even when my children were too young for school forms, they still wanted to charge me. If I were to attend today, that same fee would cost me $295. Beyond the excessive fees, I never felt that any doctor truly cared about my children. It often seemed like they were treated as just another number. To be fair, I left this practice over seven years ago, so perhaps things have changed. But based on my experience, I'm glad I decided to move on.

    We have been going to Dr. Hirsch for almost 3 years and he is the best pediatrician in the area…read more Dr. Hirsch is a sole practitioner, with excellent education/training (Duke, Georgetown, Emory). He has been practicing for several years and was recently named to the Washington Best Doctors. I am really pleased with the way he runs his practice, and with his view and approach to medicine. He is amazing with kids--friendly, quick, and my son really likes him (my daughter is a newborn and she likes everyone :) He is great about screenings and making sure, developmentally, your child is on track, but he does not intervene when not medically necessary. He explains everything to you in a way that you can understand but without being patronizing. Even though I was a second time parent with my baby, he still explained things in a way that made me feel at ease and "reminded," which is great because some people just expect that you will remember! Wait times are excellent. Maybe about 5 minutes or sometimes less. Also, he has individual buckets of toys for kids, which helps maintain the mess, and probably makes cleaning easier. The exam rooms are incredible. He has themed rooms---a firetruck room where the bed is a firetruck! There are orange cones, real vintage fireman hats on the wall, and little fire trucks and extinguishers for cabinet fixtures. He has a jungle room where the table is an elephant, and two new rooms that may not yet be finished--a train and a cafe. The technology is state of the art, and he tries to run things on an electronic health record system, which I LOVE! He monitors progress through an online CHADIS questionnaire, and keeps electronic records. He does print out material for you to take home, which is an important sign of a good primary care provider. We have never had an issue getting a sick appointment when we need one. He somehow manages to fit us in. Between two kids, this is really important. Also, his staff is excellent. His nurse is kind, sweet, and great with kids. On top of that, she is good and quick with the shots, which I really appreciate. Leslie, his front desk/office manager is quick, kind and efficient. I find that either you have a great doctor and an "okay staff" or the other way around. it is so nice to have both!!! Overall, you can't go wrong with Dr. Hirsch. We are truly very happy with him and his office!

    I do not recommend this office. The nasty woman with the accent that "works" in billing is…read morecompletely rude and unprofessional. I went to this practice after seeking out top pediatricians. I informed the team I was paying up front weeks in advance. Somehow, there was still uncertainty on the day of appointment. Each time I went to checkout, there was always confusion, and still I was sent a bill for a petty $15. My daughter was given a questionnaire at her appointment, no consent form, BTW, but I was later told that questionnaire was some sort of assessment and I was billed for it separately. I cannot respect a doctor, or a practice, that will hand a teenager a form, not obtain consent from parent to add more billable service after preparing in detail, and send you a bill after checkout, because one sheet set of questions was called "an assessment", separate from the physical. When you have labs drawn there, they charge a separate admin fee for EACH test done, in addition to the testing itself. It's practices like these, and nasty old lady billing attitudes, that erode patient trust and now I no longer trust Dr. Howard either. They are all there for $$$ not patient care or relationships. I waited for a refund that was due, which took some months. When I asked this billing person which credit card was it sent to to confirm, she says, "what, you don't know which credit card was used for your appointment?". I will never refer anyone to this practice.

    I've had a very frustrating experience with Growth and Wellness Pediatrics, LLC. Scheduling with…read moreour actual pediatrician is extremely difficult--she is always booked out, and we often end up seeing a random provider instead. Unfortunately, those visits have felt rushed and lacking basic bedside manner, which is not what you want when it comes to your child's care. On top of that, I submitted required school health forms and was later charged a $20 fee without ever being informed ahead of time. The documentation they provided actually lists the fee as $15, yet they still charged the higher "updated" amount without any notice or consent. I had multiple interactions with the office (calls, in-person, and email), and at no point did their medical assistant, Casey, or anyone else mention a cost or price increase. Patients should not be expected to pay fees that were never disclosed or agreed to. This experience wasn't about the money--it's about transparency, communication, and quality of care. Unfortunately, this practice fell short on all three. I hope they take steps to improve both their patient communication and overall experience.

    I love this office. It's kids friendly. My kids have seen Dr warner for 15 years. (Before she was…read moreat this location) Both Dr Warner and Dr Levitt take the time to listen to your concerns. They're very fun and outgoing with the kids. I love that my kids don't fear their doctor they have very engaging conversation. The office is located in their own shopping center so it's a plus if you need to do some shopping. Plenty of parking.
