I am extremely disappointed with this pediatric office. They claim to have a strict no-show policy and state they will no longer see patients after a no-show. However, we did NOT no-show -we notified the front office in advance to cancel the appointment, yet we were still marked as a no-show. When I called to schedule an appt and then get told this information and try to resolve it, the manager told me, "If your daughter has asthma, then why doesn't she have a Dr ." That comment was incredibly concerning and unprofessional. We recently switched from Kaiser and were trying to establish care especially because my daughter has asthma and needs consistent medical support. Patient care and communication should be a priority, particularly in a pediatric setting. Front office staff should clearly explain cancellation policies and ensure appointments are properly canceled to avoid situations like this. Families deserve accurate information and respectful treatment. read more

They are amazing, from the stuff to Dr Tackie. All my 3 kids have been in the care of dr Tackie, and they always very attentive, professional and so caring for each child need. Good Job and so glad to have you has out team! read more

Horrible doctor! Refused to see my child unless we followed a vaccination scheduled. Never go there! Find better care for your child!!!

I've been coming here for a couple years now and really appreciate how thorough and attentive to detail the office staff is. Dr. Tackie is patient, compassionate, and understanding. You can tell she cares about her patients and my kid loves talking to her read more

We're one baby in, and currently at 37 weeks on baby #2. We've had our first one at this practice since birth, and my wife trusts Dr. Tackie more than me...and I'm a (resident) doctor. I'll be honest - after joining her for a few visits for our daughter (she's had some additional needs beyond your standard vaccine-in-and-out visits) I understand why. Dr. Tackie is an old-school doc - the kind that most of us thought we would be when pursuing this career. She practices Holistic medicine - and is somehow both efficient and comprehensive during our visits. Most importantly as a father; she helped me prepare. Like every other first-time parent I stood in the dark watching my child breathe at 3AM, just to know that they are. Despite my training, this parenthood thing is nerve-wracking. The little "heads-ups" that Dr. Tackie gave us about all the wild stuff our daughter would do have reduced that stress load. I rarely take the time to write a review of something - if I don't like a restaurant's food, I just don't eat it; but I know how hard it is to deliver the kind of care that my daughter is getting at this clinic - and we'll continue driving 45 minutes in traffic to get it. read more

I've been taking my kids to Dr. Tackie for over 10 years. Her and her team are wonderful. The scheduling process is smooth, accommodating and always punctual. You are typically never waiting to be seen or helped. Highly recommend this office to anyone with little ones. You only want the best care for your kids and I have never seen or felt anything less at Goldstar. read more

Loved this office the staff was great I know they can be Rude I've seen it but never with us. Tackie is great, She is very caring gentle and very informative when explaining details on what may need to be done or to prevent a certain situation. She definitely went above and beyond for or littles . Sad to say goodbye as we were dropped today from Missing an appointment several months ago "April" As our final warning was back July of "2019 " not like we are going through a pandemic atm my apologies for letting that slip my mind so today I was notified by our insurance they dropped our kids for missing an app back in April of 2020 I'm upset not that they owed me a warning during the pandemic I get we have a lot going on I'm just so shocked about how this went about seeing how well they handle their patients brought me to tears to have to let their care go & have to look else where but I guess. read more

HORRIBLE DOCTOR!!! the worst one that I've been to! I don't recommend at all! I made an appointment with this doctor with curly hair she had like an accent don't know her name i forgot. I took my son in because he had an infection. While she was doing a physical check on him she then checked his buthole and said his buthole looked big. I was so shocked/mad when she also proceeded to ask me why is it big? read more

Dr. Tackie is spectacular! She spends a substantial amount of time with each child; I never feel rushed here. I was looking for a female Doctor for my 3 daughters. Dr. Tackie is certain to respect all privacy matters and really cares about the kids. The office staff is also great and very patient when it comes to their vaccines. We love the cute seasonal decor and how closely the Goldstar team is with one another. Feels like family here :) read more

Dr. Tackie is exactly who you hope you'll meet when you're looking for a pediatrician for your kids. She's knowledgeable, hands-on, and gentle with both you, the parent--and your child. She makes sure that you thoroughly understand what the plan is for your child's care and how you can do your best to help them thrive between appointments. The drive from where I live to her clinic (45 minutes each way, you know how unpredictable LA traffic is), is worth every second!! read more

We have been seeing this doctor for our kids for years but lately they have been calling my house pushing vaccines and blaming it on the insurance company saying they were wondering when I'm going to vaccinate my kids. Since when do insurance companies give a hell about that? We took my daughter to get her mandated vaccine for school and opted out of one "not required" but recommend vaccines, and the doctor threw a fit and said she won't see our kids anymore. Shame on her, she took an oath and only cares about making money over helping families. Will never come back or refer anyone to her ever again. read more

Dr Tackie is the best Dr out there ! i love having Dr Tackie as my kid's pediatrician because she actually listens to my concerns and never makes me feel like i'm bothering! she's also always a phone call away ! i'm so glad i have a pediatrician like her i'd recommend her to anyone she's the best !! read more

Where do I start with Dr. Tackie? First of all, her front desk staff and nurses are amaaazing! They're all so nice and welcoming. There's nothing worse than a great doctor with horrible staff in the office. I've experienced that one too many times. The waiting room is super cute. They have a little play area with books and a tablet with games for the kiddos to play on while they wait. We have seen Dr. Tackie twice now and she has been the best doctor we've seen so far. She doesn't rush through her appointments or cut you off when you ask questions. She really sits there and listens to you and your concerns during visits. Dr. Tackie is very thorough with her examinations, and she uses awesome analogies to explain things to the kiddos. I am so glad I found her, and will definitely be recommending her to family and friends! read more

We love Dr Tackie and her staff! Everyone is incredibly friendly, attentive, and truly care about their patients. We never feel rushed at my sons appointments and dr. Tackie always explains everything well. I fully trust her with our baby boy. The office is also super cute!! Love that it's not in a hospital and feels more intimate. read more

We love Dr. Taackie! So glad we chose Goldstar. The Dr. is friendly, honest, supportive, and so helpful. When you're a new parent navigating scary fevers, COVID, etc you want a Dr. you are comfortable going to and know they'll be there to help. read more

I was nervous about getting my daughter's ear pierced but Dr. Tackie made me feel comfortable with the process. Her voice is soothing and calms your nerves down. The best part of the experience is the love she has for babies. My daughter was so loved and Dr. Tackie even sang the ABC's to her. I've never seen a doctor care so much about babies. The process was not rushed and even Dr. Tackie went back on one ear to make a better mark for the ear piecing and perfected the spot on both ears. I highly recommend Dr. Tackie and I've even considered switching Pediatrician but is too far from where we live. read more

Came here because they do ear piercing. The waiting room has a play kitchen and a kiddie table with Lysol wipes available to clean yourself. There's also a tv with games the kids can play too! I love that everything kept my daughter busy. The front staff was very friendly and attentive. She broke down all the prices and explained thoroughly the differences. The Doctor was also very friendly. The process was such a breeze they even give popsicles after! Great place to bring your kids and feel comfortable in a clean and welcoming environment! read more

We've been seeing Dr. Tackie for 5 years now and let me tell you, she is the best around. She is so thorough and pretty much always available to answer questions. She always answers our messages and answers after hours calls. Good luck finding another office that does that. She knows her stuff and is very quick to make sure she gets you connected to the specialists or services your child needs. I HIGHLY recommend her...so much so, that we go out of our way to pay out of pocket to see her because our insurance isn't contracted. If you're looking for a great pediatrician, look no more, Dr. Tackie is it! read more

Just to be clear this one star rating is mainly for the doctors front office staff and the office in general. I can't categorically rate the doctor as we only met with her once. But we ended our doctor patient relationship with her before it really even got started and I can mostly blame that on her front office staff member her name escapes me for now. We were scheduled to bring in my 14mo baby girl a couple weeks after her initial sit down with us. So we show up to her first official appointment at the scheduled time in which I had my wife go check her in as we didn't want to be late and she arrives to a locked office door and the office had been open for almost a half hour. The front office reseptsonsist comes to the door "in-masked" to inform my wife that she wouldn't let us in until we fill out some 10-15 questionnaire. Meanwhile I'm getting our daughter out of our vehicle and my wife meets me half way to the office and it's one of those hot mornings approaching 80°+ and I was rushing to get my child into the air conditioned office. I was obviously upset that this questionnaire was going to delay me getting my child into the cool office. So naturally questioned it. So she proceeds to argue with me saying it's new procedure and they change all the time without notice. Our appointment was almost 2 weeks between our last appointment existed I understand policies change without notice but this questionnaire was laminated so there was some notice involved and there no reason why they couldn't have notified their up coming appointments prior either by email or text to recommend we show up a few minutes early to fill out their stupid questionnaire instead of us finding out right at the door standing in the heat with my child. On top of all that the receptionist began to act snotty and argumentative with me which was unprofessional. Had they informed their appointments according the situation could have been avoided and the doctor wouldn't have lost a brand new patient! Or better yet a simple temperature check of all three of us like every other doctors office does what have made things a lot less complicated. read more

I was stunned when the doctor told us on our first visit that we could not take my son to other physicians anymore. I'm all about freedom and parental rights. My son had a lot of medical issues and we would spend our last pennies trying to find a doctor that could help. This doctor did not think my son's condition was even treatable and she wanted us to just give up? We weren't going to be "allowed" to see other doctors? Fortunately, we never went back to this place and we found a pediatrician that has recovered my son from his medical issues. I'm amazed at all the positive reviews. Perhaps if you have a healthy child and don't need to find answers she wouldn't be so bad. The office looks clean and nice. read more

Words cannot even begin to express the amount of love and appreciation I have for Dr. Tackie and her staff. We have had experiences with a couple of other pediatricians closer to home, and never felt this comfortable with a physician. Dr Tackie is AMAZING. She is kind, patient, compassionate, and very thorough. She is not afraid to get down on the floor with the kids and is more than willing to help where she can to make sure both you, as a parent, and your child are ok. I brought my newborn in for a fever and had my older son there with me. My newborn had to be transported to the ER via ambulance and was not able to bring my older son with me unless I drove separately. Naturally, I was completely flustered and emotionally a wreak. In all the chaos, Dr Tackie went above and beyond her scope of practice to help me calm down and trust that everything was going to be ok. She and her staff even offered to help keep an eye on my older son until someone picked him up. They even helped installed the car seat! Long story short, never have I experienced such care and devotion to the children she treats. I've never had a problem with scheduling. They communicate very well with you through the phone or their portal. And Dr Tackie is also available all the time. Lastly, I have also encountered Dr Tackie as a fellow healthcare professional and she is very respectful. I am so happy I found her and recommend her to everyone! read more

I can't say enough good things about Dr. Tackie and all the staff at Goldstar. She is an incredible and attentive pediatrician and no other doctor has ever made us feel so comfortable and heard. I have recommended her to all my family and friends with children. I wish I could give them more than 5 stars! read more

The best pediatric office in the IE! Been taking my 3 year old daughter here since birth and now my newborn gets to come here as well! I would highly recommend to anyone looking! Everyone from the staff and to Dr. Tackie they are all very professional and make you feel right at home. They are all honest, trustworthy and take very serious safety measures to ensure the safety of each patient before entering! Which is why we chose to keep our children here! Also they are very informative about each vaccine and the importance of them all as well. Another reason why I like them so much is how straight forward and knowledgeable they are with you. THANK YOU GOLDSTAR FOR NOT ONLY BEING LOCATED IN FONTANA BUT FOR BEING EXCELLENT AT WHAT YOU DO! read more

I can't sing Dr. Tackie's praises enough! She along with her team are excellent in every single way possible. They are patient and kind. They are so so attentive and make this whole "first time parenting" thing a breeze. Dr. Tackie is literally a phone call away! I highly HIGHLY recommend this facility for all your pediatric needs! read more

Dr. Tackie has an amazing establishment here! We originally went with a pediatrician that was recommended by the hospital and had a horrible experience. We decide to give Goldstar pediatrics and shot and haven't been disappointed. From the very first phone call they have been very accommodating, polite and friendly. At our first appointment Dr. Tackie introduced herself to us and our newborn, she held him, talked to him and changed his diaper. I felt she truly cared about our baby. She's so personable and has a great way with our son. She also explains everything to us as parents and always answers my new mommy questions. We couldn't be happier. We also love that the clinic is technology friendly! We are able to make appointments online, send messages and upload documents via our portal. For parents on the go this couldn't be easier. I recent sent a message asking about my sons poop (yes poop lol) I uploaded a pic and Dr. Tackie promptly responded answering my questions and putting my mind at ease. We love our pediatrician so if you're looking m, stop she's the best!! We highly recommend her and the practice! read more

This is the best place to bring your childern , Dr. Tacki is one of the best doctors I have had for my children she is so in tune with them and my children trust her I love Dr. Tacki and of course let's not forget the staff who are so awesome they are the best read more

I would not recommend this office. Tackie is very controlling and makes life difficult for a special needs family. She thinks ADHD is something that will get better and makes you retest your kid every 6 months. She also wants you to bring your kids in as often as possible, so unless you enjoy going to the doctor and being undermined as a parent, then I certainly would not recommend this doctor. read more

We LOVE this office. We always feel so welcome by the staff. Dr. T is very hands-on and the fact that she's not afraid to demonstrate how to calm a fussy baby or offer personal advice gives me (a FTM) a lot of confidence in my decision to being my baby here. Also, LOVE that all her patients are up to date. Makes me feel safe bringing my preemie here. read more

Dr Tackie is amazing! Such a supportive pediatrician. You should see how she is with your kids. Treats them with respect and is well practiced when it comes to the developmental stages and will address them appropriately for their age group. My daughter LOVES buzzy. The techs allow me to breast feed while my boy gets vaccines, and they have a nursing chair/rocker in each room for comfort. Really a great pediatrician office and I cannot give them enough great recommendations. read more

Dr. Tackie has been my sons doctor for a year know and I couldn't be happier. Everything I have a question or I'm concern about my sons wellbeing she is always available to consult. Couldn't imagine Any other doctor for my son. read more

We took our baby to get her ears pierced and Doctor Tackie was very thorough, extremely gentle and very patient with my baby. We highly recommend her for your baby's ear piercing. read more

I can't say enough nice things about Dr. Tackie and her entire staff. She is the third pediatrician we went to with our first baby and by far the best. She not only actually cares about your kids but also you. I was 2 months postpartum and having a rough time and she was so attentive to both my son and I. I now have another baby and once again, she was super attentive to how I was doing (much better this time). When I bring them both in because I don't have another option, Dr. Tackie is so helpful. She held my newborn while I was getting my one year old ready to be checked and then had her assistant hold her while she checked out my son. Little things like that really add to the experience. She explains everything very well, and actually sits down and listens to you. She's always available on her emergency line and with same day appointments. We love her so much and cannot recommend her enough. The staff is wonderful too, and I can't believe someone wrote a one-star review about Yvette, the receptionist. She is the sweetest woman. read more

Yvette, Dr.Tacki and the rest of the staff are wonderful! They've been so helpful and they're all really good with my son. My son has been to many drs because he has a rare health condition and this is by far the best one. read more

Dr. Tackie and the staff have been so helpful and wonderful since the beginning of making the appointment! The front staff had everything ready as we walked in and their website was easy to navigate to print out paperwork. They even verified our insurance before we had an appointment which I found to be helpful and she explained our benefits. I was worried to to find a doctors office that would be patient and caring to our children since like most our children have anxiety to doctors. Once we walked in the kids felt comfortable with all the things to keep them busy while we wait our turn. Dr. Tackie explained everything perfectly and explained things to my son so he understood everything. At the end of the apt we checked out and finding the follow up appointment was easy. I just can't thank the staff and Dr. Tackie enough for making this appointment go as smooth as possible and making us feel comfortable! I will definitely recommend you guys to our friends and family in the area!!! read more

First and foremost, I wanted to say I am flabbergasted and in awe with the reviews. My dad took my little sister here because she felt so sick and terrible. She had to be dismissed and leave school early to make it to her doctor's appointment. After seeing the physician she's just stated that my sister has a common cold and she just needs a hot shower to relieve her stuffy nose. WHAT...?! Are you freaking serious?? My sister feels like death, coughing like her lungs are about to pop right out her mouth, and shoves tissues up her nose to keep it from dripping. Don't even get me started on my parents... My parents are extremely pissed at her for being sick and thinking that she's 'pretending' or she's avoiding OTC medicine. Seriously... What kind of doctor just tells someone that they're not sick enough and just needs a shower? I am beyond irate at how this doctor didn't even take the initiative to cure and treat my sister. Where is the medication that you should have prescribed to my tremendously ill sister?! Just UNBELIEVABLE and RIDICULOUS. read more

I took my daughter here to get her ears pierced when she was about 6 months old. I was under the impression that since it is a doctors office, it would be more professional, safer and use sterile needles vs a piercing gun. This did not happen. I paid $75 for her ears to be pierced with a gun, which I didn't know until I got there and was in the room and had already paid my money. The Dr who pierced her ears pierced in a completely wrong spot and hurried up to take the earring out and had to go get another one and then shot my daughters ear again. Didn't offer an apology for the mishap, simply said "baby's move". Didn't offer any for. Of discount for shooting my daughters ear twice. Nothing. Then when I went to the front the receptionist proceeded to ask how it went and after I told her led with the same "oh, well baby's do move" comment. I was livid. Not only did I over pay for the service, they only had 2 earrings to choose from and they shot my daughters ear two times because evidently, they don't see enough baby's for ear piercing to find a better technique for not having to essential hurt a child twice. At least offer a discounted rate and a genuine apology. I could have taken her to the mall for a lot less money and they would have gotten it right on the dot (I've seen them do it.) furthermore, stop being cheap and start using needles. It shows that you aren't professional piercers and that you are no more qualified than a mall kiosk worker in terms of piercing. Just luring people in under the guise that you are a trusted doctor. It should not be that way. Do better. read more

I am so happy I was referred here! My previous pediatrician made me feel a little crazy about wanting my son evaluated for adhd/asd and Dr Tackie has been so supportive! The appointments don't feel rushed, she really takes her time to ask questions, answer questions, and she isn't dismissive. Even with being referred different places, she wants to stay involved with everything and be in the loop. It's so easy getting an appointment, and also so easy to get in contact with her and the office. The patient portal they use is so helpful! I'm able to see all the notes and information uploaded pretty quickly after the appointment. I'm so glad I'm able to bring my kids here. read more

Dr. Tackie and her staff are wonderful! My son loves getting to play in the front waiting area and loves everyone that works here. I came from a pediatrician who didnt give my son and I the time of day. Being a first time mom I have lots of questions and Dr. Tackie ALWAYS takes the time to answer them without rushing me or making me feel like I am wasting her time. I am so pleased to have found such a loving and caring pediatric office! read more

Dr. Tackie is wonderful. She is caring and informative. I was having issues with getting my baby to latch and she helped me. She even gave me information on classes I could take in case I needed further help. Her staff is friendly and very helpful. read more

I'm so glad I found Dr. Tackie. Her friendly staff and office make you feel welcoming. I was amaze on how Dr. Tackie made my daughter feel comfortable and got her check up done. Dr. Tackie was very patient and caring. Thank you Dr. Tackie & Goldstar Pediatrics for the the unique services and care. read more
