I would highly recommended Dr. Curitore (part of St Joseph Medical Group) for those parents looking…read morefor a world class pediatrician! As new parents, there are undoubtedly many challenges, and having an excellent doctor as our support has made the world of difference. With Dr Curitore, we can see/feel she's someone that is truly passionate about her work and genuinely cares about the well being of her patients. She is extremely knowledgeable, patient, caring, and friendly. We love her bedside manners and can tell our child loves to be seen by her as evident in the exuberant smiles every time (this is contrary to my initial belief that children loathe going to the doctors, haha!). In addition, as there were some unforeseen situations requiring engagement with Dr Curitore, we consulted with her multiple times via the St Joseph app and she is so thorough with her explanation every single time and we appreciate her responsiveness! Anyhow, don't think words alone can describe how happy we are with Dr Curitore, we truly feel blessed and grateful to have her as my child's pediatrician.

Best decision. Dr. Curitore is so thorough. She reads the charts and follows up. I don't know how she finds the time but she makes each patient feel like they are her only patient. Navigating today's healthcare systems can be daunting, but Dr. Curitore not only provides the guidance needed but also proactively steps in as a strong ally to overcome or bypass obstacles. Dr. Curitore exemplifies what it means to be a child's healthcare advocate - something parents don't really know they need - until they need it.

He was so thorough and compassionate and we were very grateful we found him. Unfortunately, she took another blow to the head in basketball yesterday. I called his office first thing in the morning, and after talking to the doctor, they called me back saying they could squeeze us in today. Again, very grateful for being so sensitive during this stressful time. The new office is beautiful and clean. The office has always been very timely. The staff is always pleasant. A true gem of well-run medical practice. Thank you, Dr Koutures and staff!

Dr Marta Sarmiento has been our family pediatrician since 2015. She has become an important part of…read moreour family's health. Her genuine love for children and families shows through the exceptional way she cares for her patients. She's been available and always provides immediate feedback both in person and virtually. We were out of the country for a few weeks and one of the kids got sick. We had the reassurance that we could reach her thru a virtual consultation and provided medical recommendations. Her staff has been amazing since day one. Patty is a wonderful nurse, incredibly helpful. So grateful for Dr Sarmiento's professionalism and care for her patients.

I've been taking my children to this practice since my eldest was born 5 years ago. The office is…read morealways clean and has adorably painted rooms. The staff is helpful and kind. I really like that they will almost always be able to fit me into the schedule at my soonest availability. If someone is not available to answer the phone right away, I will get a call back from an advice nurse. That is a fantastic help to me. We have seen almost all the Pediatricians who practice at this office. I find that they generally are great about spending time with the patient and answering all my parent questions. I never feel pressured by the doctors about our medical decisions.

I was forced to bring my kids to this location after a nasty custody dispute with my ex husband…read moreforced them to change doctors. It was tough going from the only doctors they had ever known to a bran new facility, but we did what we had to do. Getting an appointment was easy, the receptionists aren't overly warm, but I didn't have any rude behaviors or mask drama like many people have reported. They do still require all patients to wear masks, and when we forget them they quietly hand us all a mask and we go in. The office is older but clean and well maintained. The bathrooms are clean and always stocked which is nice. They don't have books or toys which isn't an issue for me, but for parents looking for distractions you might want to pack a few. There is a fun fish tank in each office to keep little eyes entertained while you sign in or fill out paperwork. Our kids have seen Dr Turner who I was pleasantly surprised with. She was calm and had a very welcoming demeanor which made it easier for my kids to warm up to. She took her time listening to them and addressing the concerns they had. We never felt rushed or unheard in her presence. On one occasion my son thought it would be funny to put a piece of fake dog poop on the chair as a prank. When she walked in she totally rolled with it and was so silly with him. She scored extra points for that!! She places orders quickly and is easy to contact which is also really nice. All of the nurses/LVNs have been amazing. They take their time and really practice patient centered care. One nurse even did breathing exercises with my daughter when she was panicked. It was beautiful to see and warmed my momma heart. One issue I did have, which is why I removed a star, is there don't seem to be any systems in place for victims of abuse. This is very concerning especially when children might be accompanied by an abuser and they are unable to advocate for themselves with the person in the room. Other than that I recommend this place.

I'm extremely disappointed with my experience regarding prescription management at this office…read more I was down to my last two Lexapro pills when I checked my CVS app and saw that CVS had attempted to contact my provider three times without a response. I called the office on Friday to request my refill and was told it would be filled Monday since I had enough medication to get through the weekend. However, the prescription was not sent until Monday night, causing me to miss a dose. By Tuesday, I was experiencing brain fog, dizziness, and brain zaps. When I checked the prescription status, I discovered that my provider, Carlos Guerrero, had sent my prescription to Walgreens instead of CVS, despite me having clearly provided the correct pharmacy information. Walgreens does not accept my insurance, so I had to pay roughly three times my normal cost rather than wait another 48 hours for a transfer. This is not the first time I have had issues with prescriptions being sent to the wrong pharmacy. During the year I have been going to this office, my primary care physician has changed four times. Previously, Dr. Jesus Arena sent my prescription to the incorrect facility, and now Carlos Guerrero has made the same mistake. The repeated turnover and ongoing prescription errors have made it extremely frustrating to get consistent care. Lexapro is not a medication that should be interrupted casually, especially for someone who has been taking it long term. Missing doses caused significant symptoms that could have been avoided with proper communication and attention to pharmacy details. The front desk staff has always been kind and helpful, but the repeated prescription issues have been extremely frustrating and, in my opinion, unprofessional. After seeing other reviews mentioning prescription problems with this office, I'm concerned this may be a larger issue. If you rely on your medications being refilled accurately and on time, I would think carefully before choosing this practice.

My mother 1st started bringing me as a baby to this doctor back in the 90s when she was located in…read moreSanta Ana. Dr. Irene Pe then became my brother's doctor in '93, then my younger sister's doctor '99. She's currently my baby nieces' pediatrician. While there were times when my mother would switch us to a doctor closer to where we would be living at, we would only stay with said doctor for a few months. My mother would end up switching us back to Dr. Pe. I doubt we would be going back all these 20+ years if the doctor truly wasn't a good doctor. Her office does get busy at times. So call and schedule an appointment. This office usually takes the last patient 30mins or so before they go to lunch, which is usually for about an hour. If you're dealing with an emergency or situation that requires urgency, you should probably go to your nearest E.R. or Urgent Care. That's just my opinion tho.
