I initially found Drs. Stanley and Elizabeth Jacobs based on a recommendation from close friend of…read moremine in the medical field. I figured if she could trust Helping Kids Pediatrics with her kids, then I do not need to look any further. Now, 8 years later AND a county away, Drs. Jacobs continues to care for all four of our children. I can honestly say that they treat our kids like their own. Both doctors are like walking encyclopedias; with knowledge not only in their pediatric specialty, but also in various other specialties. Their expertise help new and veteran parents make informed decisions about their children's care. Dr. Elizabeth is also a Lactation Consultant, so for brand new mother's, this is such a blessing in one easy location! They are very responsive to any questions that I may have AND with any documentation needed (especially for school-aged kids). They are thorough during the examinations/visits and genuinely listen and care about parental concerns. The patient portal is also helpful and easy to use. In a nutshell, if you are a new parent, new to the area, or in the market for a fresh set of eyes, I would highly recommend Drs. Stanley and Elizabeth Jacobs at Helping Kids Pediatrics. You will not be disappointed.

My wife and I found this husband and wife team of pediatricians on health grades. They had great…read morereviews and they were on our insurance plan. We scheduled a visit prior to our son being born. The 2 of them spent over and hour with us answering dozens of questions and never once pushed for our commitment. After the meeting my wife and I were very confident in their abilities as physicians. They are parents themselves and this was evident right away. There was no doubt we were choosing them as our sons physicians. It has been 9 months and at least a dozen visits now and I am happy to report that our expectations have not only been met but exceeded. I would not hesitate to recommend this team to anyone I know.

Twice we have been looking after our grandson who lives in NYC when he got sick. Despite the doctor…read morenot being our grandson's primary physician, the staff dealt with the complications of insurance without complaint, remaining kind, efficient, even humorous. (Imagine NOT complaining about the insanity of US health insurance!) Their attitude was exactly what a sick child needed to keep him calm. The doctor was kind, on time, thoughtful, and knew how to examine a three year old without scaring him at all. After the diagnosis of flu, the first of the season, two of the staff came in and applauded with the doctor! "The first flu of the season! Well done! Congratulations!" which made the boy smile. After the diagnosis, Dr. Zatz was judicious, restrained, reassuring, and collaborative. His confident advice was to do X, but also available was Y if we wanted it. We took his advice, gratefully. An excellent doctor.

Always on point and always happy to see you and your child. He even was a good sport when my child…read moregot sick on vacation and I did my time zone math all backwards and called him in the middle of the night and woke him up , and like a clown could not understand why he was so groggy, I brought them a Didier cake to make up for it, he remembers our stuff at a yearly "well visit" like all that time has not gone by. Absolutely recommend.

We love this practice, particularly Dr Costabile who is superb. As others have said, he has a very…read morekind, respectful manner with parents and kids, and does not over-prescribe. He's also a really excellent clinician who picked up early on my daughter's mild heart murmur and an astigmatism through routine physicals. We have also seen the other doctors and the nurse practitioner Renee, who is lovely - all of them seem ready to go the extra mile for their patients. The office is very responsive and has always fitted us in quickly for issues of concern, as well as helping fix appointments with specialists when needed. Only two minor quibbles: they do keep you waiting for routine visits, at least 30 mins in my experience (Dr Roye especially seems to run late perhaps bc she spends extra time with young patients!). Tedious with a newborn. Also one thing for nursing moms: I found that like with other doctors, there is some pressure here for newborns to regain birth weight faster than breastfeeding often allows; it's helpful to come armed with an opinion from your lactation consultant. All in, we are really happy with the practice and would not change.

The doctors are nice however, they have missed so many diagnosis over the years. When my child was…read moregoing into school, they apparently forgot to mark down that he got an immunization because the school questioned if he had all of them. The doctor tried to look into it but could not find it. She said that she probably just forgot to mark it down. Another time, another doctor swore that my child probably had strep even though the test came back negative. Before we left, I asked about a rash he had and suddenly, they realized it was coxsackie. Another time, I asked about an issue I was concerned with for one child and the doctor wasn't concerned. 10 months later, we find out the other child has a major issue that we would have tested for 10 months earlier if the dr had taken my concern seriously and knew that it potentially had genetic implications for siblings. After we found out about the major issue, the doctors did not contact us to see how he was doing. I have reached out to them regarding this issue via the portal and they ghosted me. How do pediatricians ghost a parent? I had questions and suggestions so that other parents are not taken by surprise with the issue my son has and they ghosted me. We have seen every doctor in this practice throughout our long tenure with them and although they seem nice, they are not competent except if it's just your average check up.

The Doctors and Concierge Level of Medical Care offered to Patients is such a breath of fresh air…read moremore like alleviation to the standard of Medical care in NY. My Child is Medically fragile and often needs checking in on that now doesn't need to be a 24 hr emergency room trip due to it's time of day. The level of aptitude, experience and compassion given by Dr. Gallagher and Dr.Gupta is really what patients need. If you're lucky enough to find an opening for new patients consider your family much improved. There is so much more to the practice, for us it has been a real improvement on my child's quality of life. we Hold this in highest regards.

Local doctor Nitin Gupta is the greatest!!! I cut my finger badly while making dinner tonight…read more He was over right away with a mask and gloves, equipped for any situation from stitches to splits. In minutes, he had my finger glued and wrapped. I didn't even have to get out of my pajamas!!! It gave me such peace of mind, knowing I could stay out of hospitals and urgent care facilities during this pandemic. I'm sooooooo grateful. If you're looking for a total pro pediatrician who makes house calls, Dr. Gupta is awesome!

I love the physicians at Westchester Pediatrics…read more My child has had some fairly serious illnesses and also some learning issues and I feel he has gotten great care and I've gotten great advice at Westchester Pediatrics. They see the child as a whole person and not just a cough or a rash. I have often had to wait (ex a 2pm appointment can often turn into a 3pm appointment or once for me, even turned into a 4pm appointment when a child with an urgent issue came in). If you hate to wait (or have a tight schedule), it might be frustrating. When my child is sick or has an issue - I don't want to feel like I have to go home and look things up on the internet to confirm the pediatrician gave me all the options and was up on the most current guidelines, research etc. I trust Westchester Pediatrics to tell me what I need to know and that's it. For an anxious mom who is a compulsive looker up of things, that's huge. I trust the care - no need to look anything up.
