I've had a very frustrating experience with Growth and Wellness Pediatrics, LLC. Scheduling with…read moreour actual pediatrician is extremely difficult--she is always booked out, and we often end up seeing a random provider instead. Unfortunately, those visits have felt rushed and lacking basic bedside manner, which is not what you want when it comes to your child's care. On top of that, I submitted required school health forms and was later charged a $20 fee without ever being informed ahead of time. The documentation they provided actually lists the fee as $15, yet they still charged the higher "updated" amount without any notice or consent. I had multiple interactions with the office (calls, in-person, and email), and at no point did their medical assistant, Casey, or anyone else mention a cost or price increase. Patients should not be expected to pay fees that were never disclosed or agreed to. This experience wasn't about the money--it's about transparency, communication, and quality of care. Unfortunately, this practice fell short on all three. I hope they take steps to improve both their patient communication and overall experience.

I feel lucky to have Dr Hunsinger as our family Doctor.

This is a review of their so called "policy" but mostly conversation I had with the nurse today…read morewhen I tried to make a same day appointment for my son. The nurse was very condescending and arrogant in letting me know that I cannot get any service since I transferred my child for a visit last month with another establishment. I am a mom with 2 kids and I only want the best for my children, so we decided to try another pediatrician practice to know wholeheartedly who we would entrust our children and decide since we will be with the doctor for more than 18 years. My kids are 2 and 4. Why would we not be allowed to meet with another practice so we have basis of comparison? I asked the process to transfer back as I already had a 4 year old visit with Dr Liu for my daughter (a doctor who was recommended by a friend) and this nurse says she has to cancel it because once a transfer to another practice is requested, they will not accept children to transfer back. She could not make an appointment for my sons emergency and she cancelled my daughters appointment coming up next month. She sounded like a bitter ex girlfriend it was a tad bit ridiculous. Give us moms a break if we're just trying to make sure our kids are taken good care of. I am a tad bit OC and I like knowing all options for huge decisions. I was trying to find this policy online but I could not find it. I was not aware turning down offering healthcare was a thing. Bummed I never got to meet Dr Liu due to this nurses so called policy.

We have been going to Dr. Hirsch for almost 3 years and he is the best pediatrician in the area…read more Dr. Hirsch is a sole practitioner, with excellent education/training (Duke, Georgetown, Emory). He has been practicing for several years and was recently named to the Washington Best Doctors. I am really pleased with the way he runs his practice, and with his view and approach to medicine. He is amazing with kids--friendly, quick, and my son really likes him (my daughter is a newborn and she likes everyone :) He is great about screenings and making sure, developmentally, your child is on track, but he does not intervene when not medically necessary. He explains everything to you in a way that you can understand but without being patronizing. Even though I was a second time parent with my baby, he still explained things in a way that made me feel at ease and "reminded," which is great because some people just expect that you will remember! Wait times are excellent. Maybe about 5 minutes or sometimes less. Also, he has individual buckets of toys for kids, which helps maintain the mess, and probably makes cleaning easier. The exam rooms are incredible. He has themed rooms---a firetruck room where the bed is a firetruck! There are orange cones, real vintage fireman hats on the wall, and little fire trucks and extinguishers for cabinet fixtures. He has a jungle room where the table is an elephant, and two new rooms that may not yet be finished--a train and a cafe. The technology is state of the art, and he tries to run things on an electronic health record system, which I LOVE! He monitors progress through an online CHADIS questionnaire, and keeps electronic records. He does print out material for you to take home, which is an important sign of a good primary care provider. We have never had an issue getting a sick appointment when we need one. He somehow manages to fit us in. Between two kids, this is really important. Also, his staff is excellent. His nurse is kind, sweet, and great with kids. On top of that, she is good and quick with the shots, which I really appreciate. Leslie, his front desk/office manager is quick, kind and efficient. I find that either you have a great doctor and an "okay staff" or the other way around. it is so nice to have both!!! Overall, you can't go wrong with Dr. Hirsch. We are truly very happy with him and his office!

My experience with this medical practice was profoundly disappointing and fell substantially below…read morethe standard of professionalism, clinical judgment, and patient-centered care that any family is entitled to expect. After this experience, I have no confidence in this practice and cannot recommend it to others. The primary concern arose from the physician's interaction with my child. Throughout the appointment, I observed conduct that I considered inappropriate and inconsistent with the professional standards expected of a licensed healthcare provider. My child became visibly distressed and increasingly apprehensive during the encounter. When we communicated our intention to conclude the visit, I did not believe that our decision, concerns, or parental authority were afforded the level of respect they deserved. Every parent has the right to advocate for their child, and every healthcare professional has a corresponding obligation to respect those decisions while ensuring that patients are treated with dignity, courtesy, and professionalism. Equally concerning was the conduct of the office staff. Communication was dismissive, professionalism was lacking, and legitimate concerns were not addressed with the seriousness or respect expected in a medical environment. Rather than demonstrating empathy, accountability, and effective communication, the overall experience reflected a troubling absence of professionalism. The cumulative effect was a complete erosion of confidence in the practice's ability to provide competent and respectful patient care. Medical professionals occupy positions of significant public trust. That trust requires unwavering adherence to professional ethics, respectful communication, sound clinical judgment, and an unwavering commitment to the welfare and dignity of every patient. Those fundamental expectations were not met during our visit. A healthcare setting should foster confidence, reassurance, and respect; instead, this experience left our family with profound disappointment and serious concerns regarding the practice's standards of patient care. As a direct consequence of this experience, I will not be returning to this office under any circumstances, nor can I recommend this practice to other patients or families seeking professional medical care. I strongly encourage the practice to undertake a comprehensive review of its standards of professionalism, patient communication, and physician-patient interactions to ensure that future patients receive the level of respect, consideration, and care that should be regarded as the minimum standard within any medical practice. This experience was entirely unacceptable and has fundamentally undermined my confidence in this practice. It is my sincere hope that meaningful corrective action is taken to address these concerns and to prevent other families from encountering a similar experience.
