It was very important to us to find someone that had the upmost passion for their profession and made sure our children's wellbeing was taken care of. When you first walk in and see the giant giraffe, beautiful hand paintings on the wall and the train that goes on a track just above your head (that's our kids favorite part) you know you are in a very warm and welcoming environment. Each offfice is absolutely blissful as well, there are TVs in each of the corners playing a cartoons, stunning warm paintings on the walls and a plethora of books and toys for the kids to enjoy! Kaye is so pleasant and you can tell she absolutely loves children and only wants the best for them. She is so wonderful to talk to and makes sure to give the kiddos a hug as they leave. My children adore her and even ask when we're going back! If you are looking for the best pediatrician office in town, this, hands down this is where you will want to go.

I'm a bit hesitant to write this review, because once people find out how great he actually is, it's likely going to become much more difficult to get an appointment... Lol! In all seriousness though, he deserves every bit of praise! My wife and I have had some terrible pediatricians "caring" for our son, and have even had some doctors refuse to take my son as a patient because of his medical complexity. But Dr. Dakak has taken it all in stride, and since he completed his residency at the Children's hospital in Phoenix AZ, (we researched him before even scheduling an appointment) he has the experience and knowledge to handle every curveball we've thrown at him! From the bottom of my heart, thank you SO MUCH Dr. Dakak!!! You're a literal GODSEND!!

The Dr. is great, but the providers really need to improve on arriving on time to tend to their patients.

Not the best impression.

I will NEVER again refer anyone to this office. my 6 week old had an appointment today for an EKG…read moreand Echocardiogram. I showed up for my appointment in which I had my 7 week old and my 6 year old. I had no other choice but to bring my 6 year old with me. I had no one else to watch him. Dr. Banks and his office refused to see my 6 week old. there was no one in the waiting room. There is no reason they couldn't have done their check in procedures and then taken us straight back to a room. I don't have anyone to watch my 6 year old until late evening. What are parents with spouses who work during the day or single parents supposed to do if they have other kids? I will personally hold Dr. Banks and his office responsible if something happens to my 6 week old in regards to cardiology. I understand what they are trying to do but it doesn't help or make sense when some parents don't have a choice. does Dr. Banks and his office suggest me or anyone for that matter their other kids at home by themselves or find a random stranger to watch their other children? I have submitted reviews on Google, made a complaint with my sons pediatricians office who referred me there, and also made a complaint with the insurance company. my next step is Yelp and my congressman.

I wasn't too fond of his bedside manner back then so we switched to Dr. Santiago because she is so sweet and will make you feel so comfortable with her. That being said, I just had a baby 5 months ago and now we are at their new office every few months and I am so relieved to have this doctor's office for my daughter!! We saw Dr. Shah for her newborn checkup and his bedside manner has improved immensely. He was so kind and patient with us and caring about my baby's well-being! I love him. I love all the doctors here! And staff. They are all awesome! It's great because even if the doctors are busy, they have a lot of nurse practitioners to help them with their patient loads so it's easy to schedule appointments. We usually see Kat, Dr. Shah's nurse prac and she is the kindest, most loving person. We love her so much. Thank you SW pediatric!! Oh and their new office is amazing! They have a "sick" side and a "well" side to keep germs at bay! Such an innovative idea!

Once I found out where they moved they said they could not see my kids for being late. I think any business that treats people and children this way should be out of buisness.
