Our experience at East Valley Children's Center with Dr. Curran was terrible from start to finish…read more The office instructed us to arrive 20 minutes early for paperwork, which we did, only to then wait an additional 30 minutes past our original appointment time. The exam rooms were outdated, with decor and unstable chairs that looked like they hadn't been updated since the early 2000s. When Dr. Curran finally entered, he slammed every door, cabinet, and item he touched, creating a very unsettling environment. He began the visit by asking me how I was doing, but immediately cut me off mid-answer to start another question. During the exam, without asking, he suddenly took a Q-tip and fished out the last of my newborn's drying umbilical cord. Since then, my baby's belly button has been bleeding for over a week. He also referred us to a urologist for a circumcision, saying they would call us, but no one ever did. When we followed up, we learned Dr. Curran had told the urologist our baby had a diagnosis we were never informed of, forcing us to schedule a separate diagnostic appointment before even addressing the circumcision. This was extremely concerning, especially because no one in the hospital ever mentioned this "diagnosis," and a second opinion confirmed there was no issue at all. To make matters worse, when we called the office to report the bleeding and ask about the urologist issue, we were told Dr. Curran would call us back. It's been over 5 days and we never received that call. This has been the worst doctor experience I have ever had. I would never recommend Dr. Curran or this office to anyone.

As a first time mom I was concerned with vaccines and Kiera went over every single vaccine and helped me decide if I wanted to delay or skip any. She was also a great support both when I was breastfeeding and when I switched to formula later on. I also love that she takes a more natural approach to medicine. Our daughter has only been sick twice but both times she helped us choose vitamins and probiotics that helped strengthen her versus resorting to the typical store medicines. We love that! We also love that she is so accesible. She has always been able to schedule us same day when we have an abrupt concern and is also great at responding to emails right away. We have great insurance coverage but still choose to pay out of pocket for the wonderful care she provides to our little family! Highly recommend her!

I've had a mixed experience with Hip Kids. While Dr. Guzek is fantastic, the office itself is a…read morecomplete nightmare. It's nearly impossible to get a check-up appointment in a timely manner--every time I've tried, the earliest available slot is at least two months out. For basic, routine care like a check-up, that's simply unacceptable. To make matters worse, this is the third year in a row they've scheduled a vaccine appointment for my children, only to later inform me that they don't even have the vaccine in stock. This year, they confirmed the appointment just the day before, and I even took time off work to make sure I could get there. I showed up, only to be told once again that they didn't have the vaccine and I had wasted my time. The lack of communication and professionalism is absolutely frustrating.

Dr. Guzek was completely out of line by not even giving me the opportunity to ask questions about the vaccine topic. She IMMEDIATELY shut me down and spewed her political views and threatened me and my children that we were going to be "the first to go since we're on AHCCCS". NO ONE in a "professional medical position" should ever mix personal political belief with medical opinions or advice. I was absolutely floored with my experience and was very quickly dismissed by her after her meltdown about "the next administration and RFK jr.". To add, I never once asked her for ANY of that information or her opinion.. simply just stated that my partner and I were interested in spacing out or pausing on vaccinations/ boosters for a bit until we decided if we wanted to proceed. All in all a very horrible experience and one I hope she can learn from. I've worked in professional settings and I could never imagine doing that to another person.

Then she proceeded to say he was 4!!! This is after I told her he was 7 about 10 times. She couldn't figure out the dosage for him so we sat there and watched her google it for 10 minutes on her cell phone. And it ended up still being wrong to the point where Walgreens told me it could have damaged his heart! The whole experience was insane.

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!
