Dr. Julie and Christina have been such an important part of our children's care over the years. We started bringing our girls to Dr. Julie when they were newborns, and they are now 10 and 13. It's hard to put into words how much it means to have providers who have watched your children grow up and who you truly trust with their care. Dr. Julie has always been kind, patient, thorough, and incredibly reassuring. She takes the time to listen to our concerns, never makes us feel rushed, and has always made us feel like our girls are genuinely cared for--not just another patient on the schedule. Christina is equally wonderful and has always been so caring, knowledgeable, and easy to talk to. Over the past 13 years, they have been there for everything from routine checkups to the illnesses and worries that inevitably come with raising kids. There is such a comfort in knowing that when something is wrong, we have people we trust to turn to. We are incredibly grateful for Dr. Julie and the entire team. Watching your babies grow into teenagers happens way too quickly, and I feel very fortunate that they have had such wonderful people caring for them along the way. read more

We have been with this pediatric practice since my 11-year-old son was born, so writing this review genuinely makes me sad. When we first started seeing Dr. Julie, I admittedly hesitated because she did not have children of her own. She reassured me that she had practically raised her younger brother and understood what it was like to care for a child. At the time, that reassured me. Eleven years and four children later, my perspective has changed. I believe there is a level of responsibility, research, and decision-making that comes with actually being a parent that is difficult to fully understand until you are one. I also say this as a post-2020 mom whose children were completely vaccinated according to the recommended schedule for years. It wasn't until my oldest turned 11 that I began asking more questions and deciding that I wasn't necessarily comfortable automatically following every recommendation or the standard vaccine schedule without doing my own research and making those decisions individually for my children. After 11 years with this practice, we were dismissed because of those decisions. That was incredibly disappointing. We have loved Christina and Amanda over the years, which makes leaving even harder. However, I ultimately believe it is for the best if the practice cannot respect a parent's right to make informed medical decisions for their own children, even when those decisions differ from the practice's recommendations. Despite being patients for 11 years, we also very rarely actually saw Dr. Julie. I believe we saw her only once or twice when my oldest was an infant or toddler. The overwhelming majority of our care was provided by others in the practice. What disappoints me most is how easily a longstanding relationship with a family can be ended over a difference in medical decision-making. A pediatrician can strongly recommend something, explain the evidence, discuss risks and benefits, and disagree with a parent's decision. But I believe there should still be room for respectful conversation and individualized care. After 11 years, I never expected our relationship with this practice to end this way. I'm sad to leave people we genuinely cared about, but I also want my children to receive care from a practice where questions are welcomed and parents are treated as partners in making decisions for their children. Edited to share response: yelp star lowered because I feel like this was not a genuine response but an attempt to continue backing her position as Jt doesn't not address the crux of my issue My response to her as I believe my number has been blocked since. Thank you for reaching out. I appreciate you taking the time to respond, and I do want to clarify something because I don't think the main point of my review came across the way I intended. My concern wasn't that you were unwilling to answer questions or have a conversation with me about vaccines. I don't doubt that you are willing to discuss vaccine concerns with parents, and I understand why you didn't personally call me when I had already said I didn't want another conversation about a decision I had made. My concern is what happens *after* that conversation when a parent ultimately makes an informed decision that differs from the practice's policy. There is a difference between being willing to hear a parent's concerns and being willing to continue providing individualized care when that parent's decision doesn't align with the practice's recommendation. After 11 years with the practice, that is the part that was disappointing to me. I wasn't asking anyone to agree with my decision or change their medical opinion. I was simply making a healthcare decision for my children, knowing that it differed from your recommendation. The fact that this resulted in our children being dismissed from a practice they had been with essentially their entire lives is what I was addressing in my review. I also think some of my disappointment comes from the fact that despite being with the practice for 11 years, we had very little relationship with you personally because we so rarely saw you. We did, however, develop relationships with Kristine and Amanda, whom we genuinely love and will miss. I completely understand that you have the right to establish policies for your practice, just as I have the right to make decisions for my children. Ultimately, those two things are no longer compatible, and I accept that. But my review was meant to explain why, from a parent's perspective, the way an 11-year relationship ended was disappointing and why I would prefer a practice that allows more room for individualized care even when a parent's informed decision differs from the practice's recommendation. read more

See all

My kids have been seen at this clinic since they were babies and even though we have since moved and live over an hour away, we continue to bring them here because of how wonderful it is! All the staff are very kind and respond back to any needs I have very quickly. I have always trusted their medical opinions and can always rest assured knowing that my kids received the best care. You can tell how much research they do to make sure they are providing the highest level of care because anytime I have a question about something, it is thoroughly explained and backed up with medical research. We love everyone there and will continue to go there until my kids age out :) read more

Dr. Julie and her team take amazing care of both my children, one with a complex medical history. Julie is so thorough and truly cares about my kids. Her office is easy to contact for appointments and prescription refills. Highly recommend!!! read more

We have been with Dr. Julie for 10 yrs and both my kids are her patient since birth. She is very thorough, caring and kind. We absolutely LOVE Ms. Christina! We are so blessed and thankful to be in her care. She not only is caring, kind, supportive, VERY knowledgeable/good at what she does, she is also sooooo sincere and genuine. She follows up after every sick appointments my kids have had and ensure the kiddos are recovering well. She truly is the BEST and most amazing NP we have ever met and are forever grateful for the medical care Ms. Christina has provided our babies. Dr. Tomberline's nurses and staffs are also so sweet. I cannot say enough great things about them! read more

Dr. Tomberlin and her NPs have been amazing with my children so this post is not about medical service. It is instead about the business side. My youngest daughter has been with this office since she was born 7/20/20. In efforts of having one visit and because we moved, I changed my oldest to this office who had been with her pediatrician since 2009. So needless to say, I made the decision because I valued how my child was cared for at JT's office. Fast forward to recent events... my daughter missed her appointment because the message reminder went to my husbands phone and he assumed I received. Totally our fault. Well then I received this letter! We have no past due bills and it was not intentional that we missed. I understand making sure people respect your time but I just don't think sending a certified letter shows you value people. Just as she wishes us the best with our new provider, I wish them the best in finding. I guess we should be grateful that they are willing to continue sick visits until August 31st. ‍. This rating again is based on the letter and lack of value in patients. I would give a 3 otherwise due to long wait times during appointments. read more

Julie Tomberlin, MD - Letter sent on 8/2 when we missed my daughters appointment. - Pediatricians Near Me - Mansfield, Texas

We've been seeing Dr. Tomberlin and her people for about 3 years now with both kids from birth and we adore them! So kind and patient! Super professional all around! read more

We absolutely love doctor Julie and staff! They are so professional and kind! They follow up and seem to genuinely care about the kids:)

We really enjoyed the nurse practitioner and doctor but the admin is awful!! They are SO rude and accommodating. We had appointments for a new born and NO one told Us our insurance wasn't active yet. They should've called ahead of time. Then the admin team said the visit could only be pushed back 1 week or we weren't welcome to come back. So I paid 1/2 up front and I could pay the other the next week. The next week she charged the full amount. Second visit we are not even 5 minutes late and she tells me there is a fine and we might be able to be seen. read more

This office is so unprofessional, there is specifically this nurse that is always so rude every time we speak over the phone.

Don't waste your time. They'll do it for you. Gave up after sitting in the room for an hour whereas if I showed up 10 minutes late I'd be forced to reschedule. Disrespectful. read more

After my kids have been seen at this office for over a decade, I was very disappointed to find out that since we decided not to vaccinate, we could no longer be patients. It's a shame that in order to be a patient here, I don't get to choose what does or doesn't get injected into my children's bodies. As a parent, I should be able to make a decision whether to attend a well check, if my kids wear a mask, or what to put in their bodies without the consequence of being dumped as a patient because I didn't follow the doctor's recommendations. I understand that doctors get a kickback at the end of the year for a percentage of their patients receiving vaccinations, however, my right as a parent should at least be considered. read more

We have absolutely loved letting Dr. Julie's office take care of our sweet daughter. The receptionists at the front desk are always so kind and courteous. Questions and concerns are encouraged by the nurses and staff. They are so willing to help in any way possible both while we are there along with calling for help. Definitely recommend! read more

My girls love coming to see Dr. Julie. She is so great with kids and taking time with her patients when you come in. We have been going here for 8 years now and have always had a great experience. read more

she was great until now. I was request she wrote letter to school due my kids has bad eczema and can't go outside activity or touch painting. They told me that they have changed policy that if request doctor note it will be $10 charge from now on. I never see any doctor office offer like that. its so ridiculous!!! read more

Dr. Julie and her staff are truly the best! I know when we need to go to the doctor, my 2.5 year old son and 4 month old daughter are in the very best hands. They genuinely care about my children. We have been with Dr Julie since my son was born. When either child is sick, they find a time slot to get them in the same day. My daughter was sick and they stayed open late the day before Thanksgiving just to see her. I would not (and hope I never have to) take them anywhere else. We love Dr. Julie, all of the nurse practitioners, nurses, PA's and office personnel! We are so very thankful for the care they give our children! I would give them 10 stars if I could! read more

Dr. Tomberlin is awesome....the rest of the staff is AWFUL!!!!! They can NEVER get the billing correct.....NEVER!!!!! Please stay away!....even though Dr. Tomberlin is AWESOME....the rest of the staff is awful. After a Dr. visit...they don't call in prescriptions....they get your bill right...they are rude....I'm so glad I'm moving and there are better options then this AWFUL office. The WORST dr. office I've ever visited. STAY AWAY!!!!! read more

She was our pediatrician for about 6 years. She got our business when she was affiliated with a major hospital and answered the after hours call. She was a good listener and informative so I switched to her. We did fine until staff ran us off for treating us like second class citizens matter of speaking. We came back after running into one of her staff a couple of years later. Once we did at some point we cancelled same day for traffic reasons and missed another because of personal reasons. We were dismissed and after sending messages back and forth with an office worker were accepted back as long as we paid $100. The fee was reduced to $50, I believe. A year later, after missing another appointment (I'll be honest and say it was a no call/no show because of a sick child and life being hectic that day), we were again dismissed. I attempted to get a medical school permission slip and was given the run around.You dismissed me, give me the permission slip so my child can get her meds at school please. I was told to get this information from her specialist which I will but she was her pediatrician. Did she really care about my child? After 6 years we spent thousands of dollars here. We sat in the waiting room between 30 min to an hour waiting on her pretty much each visit. We did not have access to after hours. We scheduled with PAs because her patient numbers were so high after a while. We never had a conversation with her although it is her private practice because she uses office staff yet she takes our money. End result is this doctor cares more so about her pocketbook. I was inconvienced as a patient numerous times while my children were in her care and never was there an explanation, apology or thank you for being our patient. There was an attitude that suggested that us patients need her--which is not the case. She is warm upon meeting but be aware of her business practices. They are cold. It makes me cringe to think how she kissed and hugged my children but didn't think of them when her money may or may not have ben affected. If her treatment were reported to the board and her patient numbers dwindled, she would match her business side to her bed side. read more
