Dr. Burstein is hit or miss......sometimes he has a "hot date" and rushes you out; other times he has time. After refusing to submit to an orthopedic of my choice for surgery and the rudeness of the staff I'm going to have to take business elsewhere-same building, different doctor. Too many times left on hold, no answering machines, nobody gets back to you, no emails, patient portals, etc. Who wants to be on hold for almost 10 minutes? read more

This has been my doctor as of a few years, and I finally feel heard. Dr Burstein listens to my needs and concerns, he's willing to give me the benefit of the doubt while also being holistic. He covers all the possible ailments and problems and doesn't overlook anything. The staff is always professional and warm! read more

I've known Dr. Burstein as both a patient and, more recently, had the privilege of learning from her during my clinical rotation as a student NP. She is incredibly knowledgeable, compassionate, and dedicated -- not just to her patients but also to her students. I've learned so much under her guidance and truly felt supported every step of the way. As I near the end of my training, I'm filled with gratitude for the time I spent at her clinic. Thank you, Dr. Burstein, for everything -- you've made a lasting impact on me both personally and professionally. read more

All I can say Dr Marina is unknowledgeable. I had VERY BAD experience with her. Absolutely don't care about her PT. She messed up.....It is because of they mistakenly gave him extra vaccine shot. PLEASE BE EXTRA CAREFUL WITH HER. I don't want any other child experience with the same issue that we had. This is so sad......... Run don't walk away from her....... read more

Dr. Marina Burstein is incredible!!!! I recently had the privilege of doing my pediatric clinical rotation here as a student under Dr. Marina Burstein. After observing hundreds of appointments with her, I can confidently say she loves her work as pediatrician. She comes everyday with a smile and makes everyone who walks through the door feel like they are part of the family. She is so diligent with her patients and really listens to both parent and child in each appointment. She is a great advocate for her patients and their families and cares about their health and proper development from birth through early adulthood. Dr. Marina offers the highest level of care, is super personable, and has incredible knowledge. She also offers safe, holistic alternatives for certain treatments that allow for it. I cannot say enough great things about her methods, practices, and office staff. They are super friendly, efficient, and care about the patients with their whole heart. I highly recommend this practice to anyone looking for a new doctor! read more

Dr. Marina has been a pediatrician for my both sons since my younger was born. She is equally professional and caring with infants, toddlers and adolescents. she also has a very personable approach to her little patients. When my younger son had a trouble breathing she consulted me on the phone on Friday night in non-working hours, and that saved us from going to ER and helped my baby to feel better. My children love Doctor Marina and I'm absolutely happy with her and the staff. They are friendly, flexible and caring professionals. I would recommend Marina Burstein as an experienced and highly professional pediatrician. read more

Dr. Marina Burstein is most attentive and caring pediatrician. She never leaves the office until she answers all your questions, without any rushing.

Horrible unprofessional and very mean staff. Never follow up with anything charges people. Doesn't wash her hands before touching patients especially babies and newborns. Like to tell parents that they are crazy if they don't follow her rules.I will also report her to medical board for calling patients names such as unethical. Beware of this pediatrician. She is unethical, not sanitary, and money hungry to push things on babies. !!!!!!!? My response: You are a brain washed doctor(robot actually don't research information yourself like you are ethically supposed to funny isn't it ) and money hungry doctor. YOU ARE UNETHICAL NOT THE PARENTS!!!!!!!! Marina Burnstein is unethical All you do is weigh baby and measure their height but most important you push (all) Jabs on them!!! With no explanation and call the parents crazy!!! You need to be vaccinated asap with all vaccines!! Please don't forget to do it to yourself read more

As a Family Nurse Practitioner student I had the pleasure of studying under Dr. Marina Burstein during my pediatric clinical rotation. She not only is an amazing teacher, but she is an incredible health care provider all around. She takes her time with each patient interaction, develops personal relationships with all her patients and their families, and goes out of her to way to ensure the highest level of care for all her patients. Her office staff was always very friendly and provided a welcoming environment for all. I would highly recommend Dr. Marina Burstein as a pediatric physician due to her extensive experience in the field (over 30 years), vast and detailed knowledge on treating patients from birth through childhood, adolescence and early adulthood, and kind and caring charismatic personality. I would not even hesitate bringing my kids to Dr. Burstein and would absolutely trust her!! read more

selected this doctor on my anthem plan for my baby. her name is printed on my insurance card as PCP. my boy got RSV last week and they refused to see him, said I have to switch to some other medical group (whatever that means). As I could not deal with that, I went to our old pedi and paid cash. I called Anthem today and they 3 way called them and guess what, now they are willing to see us. Shady practice! I have changed to someone else, wont support someone that lets me down when my baby needs help and only responds with a stick read more

Highly unlikely I would recommend anyone horrible staff, doctor think they know what they doing i am having issues because of them

Marina is the utmost amazing pediatrician. She will take her time assessing every detail of your little one. Her vast medical knowledge is superior to anyone and she genuinely takes her job seriously. Marina took care of me from when I was just a 5 year-old and I would trust her fully. Highly recommend!!! read more

Good morning I want to start off by saying that Dr. Samuel Burstein is an amazing doctor, he is also my mothers Doctor I have zero complaints on thee other hand he is very professional & has always listened to my suggestions & has always provided perfect professionalism. This morning I called the office I believe the receptionist that answered my phone call was named Roxana, 1 she answered & was immediately rushing my questions that I was asking, she raised her voice at me treated me like I was less important than any other patient & I say this because I asked her "you sound a bit frustrated & you're being sort of rude" she proceeded to say "yes I'm frustrated because I have other customers on the line" she then proceeded hanging up on me while I was still trying to ask questions despite her yelling at me & being completely unprofessional. I've been a patient their for almost 2 years now & my mother has been a patient for over 3-4 years now. It's unacceptable & unprofessional & I'm offended. I'm upset that I'm even writing this review because like I mentioned my doctor is amazing but his receptionist is setting a horrible example for his front office. 5 stars for Dr Burstein but 1 star for Roxana the receptionist!!!!! read more

We love our doctor! Always available for us and very careful on treating our son. My son would get frequent ear infections and Dr. Burstein would monitor him and would be so careful in his treatment. She only prescribes medications when truly needed and i trust her 100%. She is also very patient with my son who cries a lot during appointments. I've had nothing but a great experience for the past 3 years. Thank you Dr. Burstein and staff. read more

Parents can't decide which and when to give their children their vaccines? Yikes. I understand the recommended ages, but each person is different and every parent knows their own child. Schools are already forcing certain vaccines, which are the only ones I really care for. I shouldn't have to get every single one, specially when there hasn't been a need for certain vaccines in years, maybe decades. read more

Dr. Marina Burstein is amazing! Love the office. Front desk is always so helpful. They really care about their patients. Office is always clean. read more

Dr. Marina has been our children's pediatrician since my two kids were born, she did a visit to the hospital within 24 hours after I gave birth, and I always had a very positive experience with her and her office. She is a very caring, warm, and experienced Doctor. Available even when she is on her vacation. She has a great way with kids, and it's amazing how she's able to make them feel comfortable being at the doctor's office. Her nurses are amazing as well, very nice, and go out of their way to make the kids happy. Nurse Svetlana is the best nurse at giving shots, and blood draws. Also, Mila, the office manager, gets the referrals done quickly. We absolutely love and trust Dr. Marina to take care of my children and have recommended her to family and friends. read more

Most cold pediatrics office I have ever been to. And Be aware they will bill your insurance for more than is covered if your child has an ear infection, and you will get a Bill from their office for 150$ extra that the receptionist can't even explain what it is for. And the parking is a joke. read more

Great doctor, wonderful office! Thorough, and professional! Had a great experience , thank you Dr. Burnstein!

What an awful and unprofessional place! After moving to the area this Dr. was recommended to us but we had trouble with the office from the first minute. I called the office many times but there was no answer ever, and they never returned my phone calls even after several messages and I really should have stopped there but my friend said they just get busy because of the season. When I finally got thru one day the nurse's English was so bad (they are all Russians and I assume that's all the patients they want to see there) it took forever to be able to spell things and even after that they got my son's last name wrong. They sent over paperwork to fill out prior to the visit and asked for records from our previous Dr. When the day of our appointment came up we went to the wrong address as the paperwork contained their old address they left 2years ago!!!! So did their google map address! After waiting for the Dr. For one hour and completing all the pre check up exams the Dr finally came in and was extremely rude and unprofessional from the first moment. She claimed our paperwork from the previous office was incomplete (it's not in my control what they send over) and she will not examine my children until she gets all the records. She was dismissive, unprofessional rude and extremely uninformed. Also never washed her hands upon entering the room neither did any of her staff so their cleanliness is also very questionable. Needless to say we left and will never return! I would not recommend this doctor to anyone unless you are Russian maybe than they will help you... read more

Dr. Burstein is my daughter's doctor since she was born. We've been seeing dr. Burstein for 10 years. She is amazing, very knowledgeable doctor. read more

Do not come here! Office staff is ridiculously rude and cold. We missed 4 appointments over a total of 4 years(2 which I cancelled and 2 no shows). I called to reschedule this morning for my daughters physical she said she's going to send me a bill for no show and a letter to discharge my daughter from their office, basically saying that we can't come here anymore and go find a new doctor, so who gave you the authority? (without bringing this to the doctors attention) I will gladly take her to a different doctor where I don't have to deal with rude office staff every time I call or come here. Thank you and good riddance! read more

My son saw Dr. Marina for his allergies. Dr. Marina was amazing, kind and explained everything from the beginning to end. She didn't recommend extra things just because I was feeling anxious, she looked out for my kid. Everyone in that office, from front desk to each nurse, were super nice and professional. When my kid was crying they kept asking if I need anything and sullyvfaces for him to stop crying. I WLL HIGHLY RECOMMEND DR. MARINA. read more

Their new location is super convenient- right next to the Topanga mall and Village! read more

Ok you asked for review, you going to get one :) This was first and last time we taking our son to this office!!! Made appt 12.30pm was told to come early 12.15pm thats what we did. Until almost 1pm we were in waiting room that was hot like sauna :(. Then we sat in exam room for 45mnts again was hot, my child felt a sleep. Nurse and Intern was telling doctor is coming shortly.... Your Doctor Intern"come to the room, never asked if i wonted to talk to her and give all the information. Ok then she was asking some question 1000 times how many times we feed our son and amounts. To see if he is eating enough. How in world can be that he is not eating enough, if his weight 18lb at 5 months? Then Dr Burnstein come to room around 1.45pm and first thing was we need to do Hep B vaccine. We come because child is sick and not to do vaccines. Even me without medical degree can understand that You cannot do vaccines when child is sick!!!! Virus test wasn't performed. Medication dosage was to high for 5 month old, she wrote prescription for to much medication. Basically this office visit was waist of our 2 hr time and $40 co pay. Being forced to do Hep B vaccination and giving letter with vaccines etc rules about how we need to follow or find new doctor is not professional. read more
