HIGHLY RECOMMEND!!! Best Pediatric practice there is out there. Dr. Lopusny and her team are so well trained, and take just good care of their patients. My son is 11 and has been at this practice since newborn. He is rarely sick and only came in for well check ups thanks to the amazing advice they always provided at keeping him healthy. My whole childhood I was riddled with illness and hospitalizations and it was very important for me to find a practice for my child that would take every approach to keep my son healthy. They have done all of that and more. I am forever grateful for their care, kindness, and their professional medical training and guidance to help our family. read more

Great practice. All the one star reviews are for vaccine related issues. Our review is for same Reason. They are very knowledgeable and one of only practices in state that really try to help children and families holistically. They also offer all full service regular pediatrics. If you're not interested in your kids overall Health and well being, and would rather just medicate them and jab them up, go somewhere else. read more

Dr. Lopusny and her team are amazing! The visit are not rushed and she takes her time to explain everything. The wait time can be long, but I call and check-in before we arrive and that helps speed it up. If you want short wait times this place may not be a fit. If you want through quality care this is the places It is a busy office so patience is necessary. read more

The doctors here are incredible, patient and knowledgeable. My children are well-cared for here. By following their advice my children are rarely sick, and when they aren't well they recover so quickly. If vaccination is your concern and you wish to give your baby dozens of vaccines in a short period of time, by all means take your child to one of the hundreds of other pediatric offices in CT. My family has had great experiences with this office and we are so lucky to have gotten in before they stopped accepting new patients. read more

Extremely disappointed! My grandson has been going to Dr Lopusny since birth, he is now three my daughter asked if he was fully vaccinated...was told yes..she again asked because he was going to start pre school..was told again yes he is fully vaccinated..he is enrolled in Milford Public Schools preschool and my daughter gets a call from the nurse stating that he is NOT fully vaccinated, my daughter had to sign a form stating he was not fully vaccinated because of religious reasons!!! She has since switched to Milford Pediatrics and my grandson received THREE vaccines today!! Since when is that Ok?!! How dare she put my precious grandson at risk!!! read more

I absolutely love this practice and cannot recommend them enough! The practice is beautiful and clean. Each and every provider is highly professional, nurturing, and has a great understanding of both western and natural medicine. I feel their expertise on traditional medicine and natural remedies/homeopathy/lifestyle is SO beyond valuable. Every single time I go, I learn so much and trust their guidance. My 3 children love them too! We do experience some wait time when we go in, but I find it 100% worth it, as I have never felt rushed and have always felt heard and cared for, which is so important to me. We have had a few complicated illnesses, where I felt they have handled/consulted with other doctors/specialists in a great manner. They have always followed up when necessary. As a new mom (3x!) I feel they are very compassionate, have such empathy, and are extremely gentle with both mom and baby, which you cannot find at most places! My children are healthy & thriving! Thank you PP! read more

If you're looking for an anti-vax/anti-mask practitioner that will recommend essential oils over medication then you've found the perfect practice. I'm honestly surprised that she hasn't had her medical license revoked. Last time I was there, none of the staff were wearing masks which is odd since every medical practice I've been to (hospital, doctors office, urologist) all continue to wear masks in a medical setting. Well....not Preferred Pediatrics. My kid was there for a vaccine and the nurse recommended an epsom salt bath to get rid of the "toxins" from the vaccine. A quick google search could give better advice than this trained professional. If you're actually concerned about your child's health, find a different practice. read more

This practice goes above and beyond to support families! Even during covid has handled everything so well. I always get a reminder call from a real person which I desperately need as a mom with two under 3 year old! Love being a part of this practice. read more

***** THIS PLACE NEEDS TO BE SHUT DOWN ****** You're always gonna be waiting an hour after your appointment, if not longer to even be seen! These doctors have no clue what they're doing: they misdiagnosed my son for months with Croup, when I kept telling them it was as asthma. I was born with asthma and so was his father. They wouldn't listen. I called my insurance and found a asthma doctor, and asked them to please refer me. They did, and SURE ENOUGH HE HAD ASTHMA! Once he started the inhaler he was 100% better!!! They made my baby suffer for MONTHS & refused to listen to his parent. Sadly I still stuck with the practice and I regretted it. Renee Casey cleaned my sons ear wax out of his ear with a paper clip. She said it was okay because she wiped it with an alcohol wipe. I went to this office on 2 different occasions about very serious things. Allison Pearson, and Renee Casey took it as a joke. I went as a concerned parent, if I didn't think it was serious I wouldn't have taken him to the doctors. I want my son safe at all times, that's the most important. & now I've been trying to get my sons records sent to his new doctor since October and they keep making up lies! The new doctors office faxed the medical release form twice for them no problem. They're saying now they faxed it 3 times and they don't know why the new office never got it. So they sent me a blank message on the portal and said if that doesn't work they can't help besides giving me a CD. The new office called them and explained they cannot accept a CD for the records, and preferred pediatrics lied to them and said I picked the disk up already. They want me to have to pay for over 200+ copies of paper because they don't wanna do their job correctly. I've asked for proof of the faxes twice, and I haven't received anything. I was thinking maybe they put the wrong number, but they won't show the proof to even see. I've now had to report them to my sons insurance company and to the DOH. DON'T WASTE YOUR TIME COMING HERE!!!!!!! read more

They highly enforce a policy that they never inform you about. I had an initial appointment but I must of added the incorrect date in my calendar. I called the day before my appointment (the one I wrote down) to confirm being that I hadn't recieved a call. She said your appointment was a week ago. What??? Why didn't anyone call. Well apparently if you miss your initial appointment they will not take you on as a patient. I wish I was notified prior to. Apparently it was set in place 3 days after I booked my appointment. No one mentioned this when I went to drop my child's medical records. So yea, how was I suppose to know this crucial information again?? I was pissed because I really wanted to be at this practice. I will add that Jessica, the person who I spoke to on the phone was very polite and kind. Either way everything happens for a reason. read more

Dr. Casey is awesome! She's patient, knowledgeable, relatable and doesn't rush the visit. She always goes the extra mile with her patients. One of the best doctors around! Highly recommend! read more

Dr. Casey is wonderful. She is the sole reason I'm not giving 1 star. She's thorough and warm and calm. If she ever starts her own practice I'd go there immediately. Dr. Casey is 5 stars. I interviewed 7 different pediatric practices when I was pregnant before deciding on Preferred Pediatrics. Accurate knowledge about the natural penis and proper intact care is extremely important to me as I did my masters dissertation in pediatric bioethics on the topic. The first 6 practices I interviewed got, at best, a C- on this topic. Also, none of them allowed any flexibility on the vaccine schedule. I DO vaccinate. It is important to me that I'm able to space them out though. After all, if my child has a severe reaction after 4 shots in one visit, how are we supposed to know which shot was the problem? Anyway, I booked an in person interview with Dr. Lopusny. I booked it for 9:45am. She didn't arrive to unlock the door until after 10am and it was close to 11am before she came in to greet me. She got a solid B on the intact care knowledge. Better than anyone else. I could tell she was a bit too "woo" for my tastes, but my options were limited. My baby is now 6 months old and I am so fed up. Turns out it doesn't matter if I liked Dr. Lopusny or not. I've never seen her since. That's not a big deal to me really. As I said, Dr. Casey is wonderful. I've seen 1 (maybe 2?) other doctors and they've been fine. Nothing outstanding. Nothing awful. Now for my main issues....my very first newborn visit they had me waiting in the parking lot in the middle of the summer with a days old baby for OVER AN HOUR until they called me into a room. Once in the room it was about 30 more minutes until someone came in. I was a new mom on a strict pumping schedule and naively thought I'd be home (or at least back to the car!) in time to pump again. Nope. My boobs were angry at me. Next visit, they were running about 45 minutes late. Same for the 1 month visit. The 2 month visit was at something like 10:30am. It was a after 1pm by the time I got out of there. This was the visit that really started to piss me off. They did the well visit and then I had to wait for the nurse to come in to give him his shot. That was the last step then we could leave. I was waiting and waiting and waiting and finally left the room to see how much longer it would be. Everyone was in the side staff office area apparently eating freaking lunch while I was waiting for them to finish their job. Grrrr! Now, this was all annoying, but manageable since I was maternity leave. Once I went back to work hours long delays would be much more problematic. I decided the 4 month visit would be my last test. Thankfully for them they were close to on time. Found out that appointment was booked before my baby was actually 4 months though (had counted by 4 weeks = month instead of calendar months.) If I'd still had my previous insurance it may not have paid for the well visit since it wasn't at the right time. Dodged that bill. This practice doesn't care if you're comfortable with the regular vaccine schedule or some modified version that gives fewer shots at a time. They will only give 1 shot per visit and they must be a month a part. Ugh. Ok fine, whatever. Monthly shot only appointments between well visits are fine. Thankfully those don't seem to run so late. It's still time off work though and they're only open during the regular work day. No early morning or late afternoon appointments. Oh, and shot only appointments are only on Tues. My baby got a shot at 5 month and was supposed to have another at his 6 month appointment. Was waiting on the nurse for his shot and the doctor came back in to tell me it was too soon. His last shot only appointment wasn't at least a month before so they wouldn't give him any. That's how I found out about their month a part rule. Argh!!!! When I started going here there were "unmask our kids" posters in the windows and fliers about anti-vaccine protests. Those have since disappeared and there are now signs saying masks required. Dr. Lopusny is very anti vaccine and anti mask and doesn't wear them. The other staff have worn them more often than not. Overall, unless you 1.) don't vaccinate at all 2.) don't work and can spend a few hours once a month at appointments 3.) are part of the anti vax/anti mask/trump type cult, this practice is more hassle than it's worth. Except for Dr. Casey. She's a dream. read more

This review is just for the front desk - since the doctor is not accepting any new patients, some kindness and empathy could go a long way for a panicked mother like me. I had a toddler step on a LARGE and LONG staple at our new house practically nextdoor to this practice today. I am beyond upset at the slammed-door in my (and my toddler's) face when dealing with a concern for my baby. My toddler is beautiful and happy ( her name means happiness) and I would do anything for her. After explaining the situation, through the crying and bleeding, and the "we have BCBS and live nearby, can we just pop-in?", all I got was "We aren't accepting new patients." In that snooty, not gonna help you. so sorry, but I don't need to be nice to you because you'll never be jello "kind of tone. That was IT. Silence. Save for the whimpers from my tear-soaked toddler on the other end. I give two stars: one for the reviews I've read about the Doctor here. And one because when I called a second time, I asked (madly.....as a mother who is scared does) for a recommendation and finally got a "Well. We don't give recommendations. Well. Ummm. I guess try Milford Pediatrics??" Milford Pediatrics' front desk didn't have space today, but they said they'd try to make some based on our situation. They had instructions prepared. And names of people to call back and ask for. They said, "I totally understand. The doctor doesn't have space today on her calendar, but here's what we can do: 1) Call your Manhattan Practitioner and ask when the last time she got her tetanus was. From there we can be better prepared to treat her or perhaps she doesn't even need to come in at all. 2) I'll talk with the doctor and see what she thinks. Do you think the nail/staple came off in her foot?" (I mean, good questions and concerns here....thinking for me as I panic while my baby screams and bleeds). 3) Call back any time today after you talk with her regular doctor and ask for me, Kelly". THAT is a great response to a mom that loves her child and is concerned. Milford Pediatrics all the way. read more

We have been going here for almost 4 years now and things went from bad to worst. I really am not the kind of person to put up reviews but I thought this may be helpful to other families. We have three children and were just dissatisfied and disappointed with every single visit and care of this place. There is no follow up, no personalized approach, and the feeling of bills are more important than the wellbeing of a little human being is very sad. On call nurse? Goodluck getting a call back. We were seen by one doctor then all of of sudden- they notified us that we will be seen by a different doctor. After numerous bills in the mail following visits it turned out that doctor was not in network with our insurance. Hundreds of dollars spent on something like this overlooked. Would not recommend this place and how about Prefer to Switch Pediatrics? read more

I would give 0 stars if I could. I trusted this office and came to them as a concerned mother. Not ONCE, But TWICE. They took the situation as a joke. I can't believe as a mother yourself you can act this way... I will never recommend this office to anyone. read more

This is by far the best doctors office I have ever been to. I have a toddler and a newborn. Since my oldest was born we have moved to 3 different states so we've been to several offices. Dr. L is a refreshing change of pace. No judgment at all and willing to answer any questions. She's also flexible on vaccinations. This may be strange to add but most pediatrics offices don't feel clean and are filled with over stimulation. Usually the toys are kinda gross or the walls are painted in bright and annoying colors. This office was much more kid friendly. The toys and all the rooms were incredibly clean! The walls had fun pictures but were not overwhelming. My toddler loved it. I really appreciated this office. I can't recommend it enough. read more

I wanted to love Dr. Lopusny as so many of my friends and other medical professionals do but I did not. For starters she doesn't do in person tours of her office for expectant mothers. However, the office staff said she was willing to do a consultation over the phone. She called and left me a voicemail, I called back and left several messages and never heard back from her. I didn't like that I had never spoken to or met the pediatrician for my baby. She also does not do hospital rounds, so with that being said I took my 4 day old baby for his first checkup. Without going into detail, my son was experiencing what most would consider a medical emergency and she was completely unfazed about it. The following day I called her after hours (as a brand new crazy mom, concerned about her son's health) and she couldn't remember if she even met me and was clearly not listening to me on the phone. In my opinion she has a terrible bedside manner. I requested my records and never returned. I switched to a new practice and his new pediatrician addressed and treated my son and he is now a happy and healthy baby! read more

Allison is our favorite. She makes us feel so comfortable & safe. 100% would recommend her as your child's pediatrician. She doesn't force vaccines on you & only wants what's best for your baby. read more

I feel so grateful to have found this pediatricians office. Dr. Diana Lopusny along with the other medical doctors and nurses go above and beyond. The office and toys seem very clean. I never feel rushed. They patiently listen to my question and respond with thorough answers and advice. I feel like my baby is in good hands getting the best care he needs. I travel all the way from New Milford to go to this office. I highly recommend them to anyone I know. read more

I am so impressed with Dr. Lopusny. She is smart and kind hearted and amazing with the kids. My kids totally LOVE her, even though we visit minimally. Her knowledge of holistic practices is amazing and yet when paired with her medical knowledge, it makes her a powerhouse in the medical world. She is SO supportive of families and their individual paths in choosing healthcare for their children and this is what you want, a doctor who is on YOUR side. And the two negative reviews are shocking. I have been with her practice for 8 years and that is a long time to know someone well. That is not at all the opinion I have of her and I have a lot of friends who see her as well. She is a big light in the world and we are so glad to have found her. As for her staff, she has had staff who has left her and COME BACK because they so love working with her. I don't think one-off cases are at all representative in the reviews here. Frankly kind of shocking! Don't be deterred by them. She is a one of a kind doctor! Check her out if you are called to do so. read more

BEWARE!! This office doesn't follow the proper schedule for vaccinations even when asked multiple times if the child is up to date. Everyone is entitled to their own opinion on vaccinations and whether or not to get them but when directly asked, the doctor shouldn't LIE! You choose the pediatrician for your child with the understanding that they are the best choice and will take care of them fully. Unfortunately this wasn't the case. Asking flat out "is my child fully vaccinated and able to go to school?" and receiving a "yes" response would make one think they are all set. If you can't trust your doctor than who can you trust to care for your child medically?? Unfortunately my experience at this practice isn't the first horror story I've heard and it won't be the last. read more

I Never planned on posting a review but this will be my first review and not a good one this practice was not a pleasant experience. Please think 2,3 or even 4x about going To Preffered Pediatrics the entire staff on most days are very rude and absolutely no bedside manor. Please I beg you think strongly about going to another practice. Milford Pediatrics is definitely the place to go read more

The best pediatrician by far! I'm so happy with Dr Lopusny's care we travel 45 minutes to see her & I have sent at least 5 more families her way. The office is clean with a warm ambience. The nurses are great! & I appreciate her whole body approach to wellness. read more

What would we do without her!? She's incredibly intelligent and first heals with natural methods, a rarity today with an MD. We are truly in love with her!!! read more

Dr Lopusny is the most genuine and caring physician one could ever hope to meet. My children love to attend their well appointments and rarely need to see her for sick visits as she helps my family navigate our journey of wellness-through optimal nutrition and focusing on a whole body, mind and spirit approach. Patients are not seen as dollar signs at this practice...we love our pedi and feel really blessed to have found her! read more

Unsure how there is only two reviews thus far! Dr Diana is AMAZING , it's very hard to find anyone that has YOUR best interest in mind when it comes to your child, she listens, is compassionate and caring and I didn't feel rushed or pressured or wrong when discussing my feelings/concerns about my sons health. she is knowledgeable beyond any of the other (too many to count!) pediatricians I've met with on ALL aspects of health care western med, natural, nutrition ect . I can't say enough about her kind gentle bedside manner, my son loved her immediately and so did I ! read more

We love Dr. Lopusny. She utilizes a wonderful combination of natural and allopathic treatments, according to your preference. She is open to discussion and ideas. We drive an hour each way to see her. read more
