There are so many Peditrician options and practices in RVA, and we explored each one before making the [best decision] to go with Glen Allen Pediatrics. We cannot commend this practice to you enough, especially if you desire to be "known" and to have personalized care for your precious little ones.
Our first daughter was born in May 2019, pre-mature and via an emergency procedure. One of the three doctors from the practice visited us each day, and proactively advocated for both us and our daughter -- both in the hospital and afterwards as we navigated the RVA lactation scene.
Shortly into our little one's life, she contracted a rare form of bacteria, was hospitalized for several weeks, experienced many many following ER visits, and then discovered she was born with a chronic condition. As new parents we were frightened, confused, and so far outside of our area of expertise --- but Glen Allen Pediatrics was not. They were ON IT, helping, advising, advocating, and encouraging us every step of the way.
Specifically Dr. Goradia, their amazing nursing staff, and front desk and administrative team quickly became like family and helped us navigate both the unchartered waters of caring for a sick little one and the broader central Virginia medical scene. When emergencies arose, they made themselves available to us after hours, squeezed us in, and helped us advocate for our daughter across numerous hospital experiences in RVA and out-of-town. Simply put --- they went above and beyond.
Had we chosen a large pediatric practice, I'm confident we would have felt lost and alone --- and our daughter would have received no where near the care,
attention, or support than Glen Allen Pediatrics provided.
If you feel like you need some large, fancy, well-known RVA Pediatrics practice with updated patient rooms and all the flashy "bells and whistles" --- then this is probably not the place for you. However, if you want exceptional care for your children, to be known by your doctors and nurses, and to be supported and encouraged as parents -- THIS is, in our humble option, the GO-TO practice. At the end of the day, all the fancy updates pale in comparisons to exceptional, personalized, and thoughtful medical care.
