As a parent I'm happy I was able to have a great pediatrician all these years.

What more can I say about Dr. Lin and her awesome staff?! We feel so blessed and fortunate to have…read morefound Dr. Lin as our daughter's pediatrician. From the beginning when we visited her office (we first met with her before my wife gave birth), she left a lasting impression with how sincere and open she was about our baby's care even though she was not born yet. Dr. Lin even stopped by twice at the hospital to check up on our daughter in the first couple of days. She is extremely knowledgeable, compassionate, understanding, sympathetic, and simply downright kind when it comes to our daughter's health and wellness. If you leave a message for the doctor with any concerns or questions, she will get back to you ASAP. Just come to the office with your questions during the check-ups and scheduled shots, and she will be happy to assist and reassure you with that peace of mind that most parents crave. Her staff is simply the best when it comes to scheduling and leaving messages. If you need to schedule a same-day appointment due to a minor emergency or otherwise, the gals with work with you to find a time to squeeze you in. Dr. Lin shares the office/practice with two other pediatricians. Though I have yet to meet the other two, my wife spoke with Dr. Wagoner who returned a call for us on a day that Dr. Lin was out of the office. She was also very helpful. The facility is clean, comfortable, and strategically laid out for the patient's convenience. If you have an appointment, the wait time is next to nothing! Also, a big plus was the fact that there is a separate entrance for well and sick babies. If I can give Dr. Lin more than 5 stars for her service, I would. Your baby will be very happy to be treated by Dr. Lin!

The entire office staff has also been wonderful--friendly, helpful, and accommodating.

She did one in the office and told me that they would send it out for a culture but she was going on vacation and wouldn't be able to let me know until the following week ! In my opinion that is extremely unprofessional as it was necessary I had those results and she has an entire staff that could have called. Should he noted it is now a week later and not even a phone call from that office. I took him to another doctor Friday had the test done THAT DAY and the treatment started by a specialist. This doctor talked to me like I was an idiot and she was God. I have now had two other specialists who disagreed with her diagnosis. If you want a doctor who is going to just brush off your concerns, not listen and speak down to you then you've found your doctor. Run far away from this office. I have 4 kids and have never encountered such a poor doctor.

Dr Wagner has been our pediatrician for many years now and we couldn't be more grateful. We love…read morehow caring and knowledgeable she is. She has kids of her own so she understands every dynamic a child goes through. My kids and I receive so many tools every time we go see her (from what to expect from body changes, eating healthy, recipes, pier pressure, electronics etc.). She puts her everything in making sure the kids are healthy in all aspects. She also takes her time to answer all your questions and explain every detail along with making the kids feel comfortable. She is excellent pediatrician! We very lucky and blessed to have found her.

Best thing about a PPO -- firing her!

When I was expecting my first child, we met with Dr. Becker about a month out (one of the only…read morepediatricians who do this!) and she took the time to talk with me and answer any questions. She wanted to make sure we were a good fit, and I truly appreciate that. You can tell she is not trying to just get as many patients as possible and make money. She wants to have a healthy, trusting relationship with the parents and their children. She will not work with everyone, but I find that to be a good thing. She wants to be comfortable with the relationship between doctor and patient, and she wants you to feel the same! After deciding on her on as our pediatrician, Dr. Becker came to the hospital the day after our daughter was born (again, one of the only peds who do this!). To make a sad and long story short, our daughter ended up passing away two weeks after birth. Dr. Becker and her staff sent a card and flowers. It was very touching. When my son was close to being born a year later, we again decided to go with Dr. Becker for our peds. When I called her office, I was shocked and a bit emotional when they remembered me! And my daughter. Anyone who can relate to this type of loss understands what a big deal this is. Dr. Becker again came to the hospital the day after my son was born--this is her common practice, not special treatment! She helped me so much that first year of being a "new mom"--answering questions in person or by phone, always in a very timely manner. I have gotten a same-day response from their office every time. My son had a severe milk and soy allergy, and Dr. Becker helped us team up with an amazing pediatric gastroenterologist. Together they helped us tremendously. I now have my third child, and I confidently went through the process yet again with Dr. Becker. With Covid and everything else going on, I can't tell you enough how important it is to have a pediatrician you trust. With Dr. Becker I have peace of mind. To round out this review, I'd like to mention that the staff is excellent! They are knowledgeable, friendly, on time and organized! And best of all, you can tell they love children, and don't get tired of seeing them! I hope we never have to move because I never want to find another pediatrician.

The next day Dr.FollMar was rounding and saw our baby boy while in the hospital. He was professional and kind and we enjoyed having him. They scheduled us for an appointment later in the week at his clinic to check on baby. Unfortunately, the Insurance department here was very rude and would not listen to me when I was trying to give them information on who to call at the VA for how they should bill the appointment. She was rude, condescending, and did not want to listen to anything I was trying to explain in regards to billing the VA. Unfortunately, it was the worst clinic experience I have ever had. The front desk staff left us feeling unwelcome and not cared for. Dr. FollMar was very caring, thorough and helpful with all our questions and just really great to deal with. It's unfortunate that the front desk staff and insurance billing department ruined that experience for us. Healthcare is about helping and teamwork. With a front-desk staff, a vital part of that TEAM, refusing to listen to the patient is unacceptable. For a first time mom, veteran, and nurse myself- I was utterly disgusted at the way the front desk staff treated a new patient coming into this clinic. I will not go back and will be letting the VA know the difficulties my spouse and I experienced. Thank you to Dr. Follmar for being professional and listening to our questions and concerns.

My husband had been feeling ill for about 2 months after a kidney biopsy and had been seen by 2 specialists with no definitive answers. Dr. Chahbouni took the time to review my husband's lab work and took time to call us after hours to ask me to take my husband immediately to the emergency room. It turns out that my husband had internal bleeding and was urgently admitted and given 2 bags of blood transfusion. He also had a bad kidney infection and was on round the clock antibiotic treatments for almost 2 months. Had it not been for Dr. Chahbouni taking the time to really look at the labs, I feel that my husband would not be here right now. He has treated my husband with care and understanding. Dr. Chahbouni is an excellent doctor. He is compassionate, caring and patient. He takes the time to really explain the condition and treatment options. On behalf of our family, we would like to thank him from the bottom of our hearts for helping my husband recover these past few months. His practice is in La Mirada, California now.
