    Kenia K.

    Dr. Davari is amazing! One of the best pediatricians I have ever met. He can sometimes have a long wait but he is %100 percent worth it. Anytime any of my three children have had an emergency he and his staff have gone above and beyond to care for them. He always follows up to ensure everything is well.

    I have been coming here ever since I gave birth to my daughter.Dr.Susy is very knowledgeable,…read morefriendly, and professional, and I always feel comfortable and confident in her care. My daughter is also very calm and comfortable during her appointments, which says a lot about how caring and gentle everyone is. Not only is she wonderful, but the nurses and staff are also very kind and helpful. I highly recommend this place.

    We LOVE Dr. Susy. She has been so great tending to our daughter and, as first time parents, she has…read morereally heard us and walked us through any questions or concerns we have. As a parent herself, she is understanding and is always very attentive! Her nursing staff and aids are all great as well. Not on Dr. Susy, but front desk feedback: They are very disorganized and never seem to take notes. We had to move around our vaccination appt due to family travel. At the direction of Dr. Susy, she suggested we come in the week before our travels. We scheduled it with the front desk as we left our 1 month appt. Come the week of the vaccination appt they call me saying we cant come in, it's too soon for the vaccine and we need to reschedule. I explained Dr. Susy told us to make this appt and we did so at our last appt. They said that couldn't be right and they'd have to call her to confirm then called us back saying we were right - this has happened now FOUR times. Like just write it in our file we're coming early at the direction of Dr. Susy. It's just annoying more than anything. They also still don't pronounce our daughter's name correctly. Not a reason not to have a great Dr like Dr. Susy but still... wish I didn't have to deal with this

    Do NOT go here, they will over charge you with all kinds of hidden cost. I took my son in for a…read moresinus infection and ended up with a bill more than $1000 dollars after insurance. During the visit the doctor asked if it is okay to check his ear for infection, naturally I said yes. They had to remove a little ear wax to see the inside. A week later i got a bill for $129 to remove ear wax. That is utterly ridiculous. I would have removed it myself if they told me that ahead of time. I've been coming to this office for a couple of years now and it is getting worse. There is no price transparency and many surprises on additional charging. i will not be returning to this office.

    Let me start off by saying that we show up to appointments on time, follow doctor instructions, and…read morepay our bills on time. That said, UCLA is breaking their side of the contract. Do not go here. If you do, please note: 1. The office requires that all communications go through My Chart and that they will respond within 48 hrs. Standard response time is MUCH longer or never. Way too long to answer a simple follow up question to an appointment. Have been in situations where advised to contact pediatrician by medical professionals and cannot get through. 2. When you do receive a response, sometimes it is a non-doctor medical professional responding, and we have had times where the response is not relevant and clearly copy-pasted from a form response. The non-doctor medical professionals are also empowered to immediately close the conversation after responding one question. One time the advice even contradicted the explicit medication instructions on a label, which would be a safety issue had we not read the label. 3. Regularly overbill and we have to spend a lot of time remedying the situation with the UCLA billing department. Even then, their rates are much higher than non-UCLA pediatric specialists. 4. You can always get in because they open up a ton of appointment slots on a rolling basis within 24-48 hrs. The down side is, they up charge you for booking the appointment because it is being booked on an "urgent" basis. What's the point of a pediatrician, if you can't see them when your kid is sick without incurring a significant up charge? Life isn't all well checks. 5. After hour nurse line always advises to go to ER. 6. We have had lab results posted on My Chart (not talking about just a throat swab or strep test) and received zero follow up. The posted lab results will have no interpretation and no message or guidance posted. When this inevitably happens, I head to Reddit, Google, or the neighborhood ER nurse. 7. Pediatricians are kind at appointment, but the entire system is designed to minimize all communication with them. They are walled off from patients by design. Multiple kids here for many years. Actively shopping for better care.

    Dr. Brucker is kind, thorough, patient, extremely skilled and well-read, has an immense knowledge…read morebase, has excellent clinical decision-making skills and judgment, and is so respectful towards children. He is what you wish every pediatrician were. He treats kids with so much compassion, and is even kind to stressed out moms with 400 questions. I'm a physician as well, and I am consistently humbled by his expertise each time we visit him. I have 2 girls who went through a really rough few years with Covid & POTS. They also have anxiety & ADHD. The older one also came out as trans. These are not straightforward healthy kids who go to see Dr. Brucker for just well-child checkups. Talk about the golden trifecta: physical, mental, and gender identity health issues. We were in the UCLA system for the longest time, which was excellent too, but transitioned to Dr. Brucker when our health insurance changed. He's been caring for my girls for about 2 or 3 yrs now. He has surpassed every other amazing pediatrician that has taken care of them. His attention to detail and keen vigilance are unmatched. He's probably the smartest doc they've had. And both girls are now thriving because of him. They are always sick duh, but this is the best their physical & mental health has been and their ability to function within their limitations has been. Thank you Dr. Brucker :)

    Wow! Really awful experience with Dr. Brucker's El Segundo office. I was turned away from my 12…read moreyear olds appointment (whom I took out of school) because of a complete miscommunication between their 2 offices and my health care provider. Dr. Brucker was assigned as his PCP! His name is on his insurance card. They turned me away because they said they didn't take his insurance, and never have?? Makes zero sense, especially when my insurance company called the Manhattan Beach location (shortly after I was turned away) and spoke with someone who said they absolutely DID take my insurance!! Not a nice way of doing business! Not professional! Mind blowing we pay and trust the system, only to be turned away when you actually need to see a Dr. It's sad!
