I feel…read morelike words cannot describe the amount of gratitude and trust I have for the care her and her team provide to my son. This was my first so I had a lot of questions and concerns and she was always there to help along the way. She uses evidence based practice in her care with Max and I appreciate that. It's not difficult to make an appointment with her or her team either. We are usually in and out of there when we come in. Lastly I wanted to say thank you to Janice O for being such a great nurse. I had some concerns the day prior to my sons surgery and she provided me with education and interventions to mitigate the issue we were having - AND she was even kind enough to check on Max the next day. If you ever get a chance to read this, I hope you know that I really appreciated your quality patient care to my son. Thank you again! Thank you for taking such great care of my little guy! Your team is extraordinary!

My family absolutely LOVE Dr. Karr's pediatrician office! From the moment we walk in, everyone is…read moreso kind, welcoming, and caring. It truly feels like you're surrounded by people who genuinely love what they do and care about the children they work with. I especially want to recognize Lina and Lacy. They are absolutely wonderful! Lina has given my children their vaccines, and she is so quick and gentle that my kids barely have time to get nervous. She has such a comforting way with children, and they actually LOVE seeing her, even when they know they're getting a shot! My kids have always handled their vaccines so well, and thankfully, they haven't experienced fevers afterward. Of course, every child is different, but I truly appreciate how comfortable and cared for my children feel in their hands. I also really appreciate how seriously this office takes everyone's health and safety. They are very intentional about keeping the office from becoming crowded. Usually, there are only one or two patients in the office at a time, and you don't really cross paths with other families. It feels like they've created a system that helps minimize unnecessary exposure and the spread of germs, which gives me so much peace of mind as a parent. Lina and Lacy have such sweet personalities and know exactly how to make children feel safe, comfortable, and at home. My children adore them, and that says so much. As a mom, there is nothing better than knowing your kids are in the hands of people who treat them with genuine kindness, patience, and compassion. Thank you, Lina and Lacy, for always making our visits so positive and for taking such wonderful care of my children. You both are truly special, and we appreciate you more than you know!

Visits rarely resulted in clear diagnoses or solutions, often requiring repeated appointments for unresolved issues. The final straw was my son being sick for over six weeks with severely swollen tonsils. Despite multiple visits and two rounds of antibiotics, there was no improvement and no proactive follow-up. On a third visit, we were sent for an X-ray only to confirm what was already visible. I had to call multiple times to obtain results, a school note, and guidance. Dr. Ha did not personally follow up, and no voicemail was ever left. When I calmly expressed my disappointment with the lack of follow-through, Dr. Ha responded defensively and snapped back rather than addressing the concern. Only after continued insistence was appropriate treatment prescribed--care that should have been provided earlier. Pediatric care should be attentive, responsive, and respectful. Unfortunately, that has not been our experience, and I would not recommend Dr. Ha.

To this day, I can say it is one of the best decisions I have ever made. Dr Nguyen got my Little ones acid reflux under control, which allowed her (and me) to sleep longer stretches at a time. All of her recommendations and treatments were non evasive and so helpful. She has always been so patient, understanding and knowledgeable. Thank you Dr Nguyen!!

I recently was notified that my Primary Care Physician was leaving my insurance network. I was…read morescheduled to have back surgery and had to have a PCP so I picked Dr. Barrett because he was near my home, period. In all honesty, I really didn't think picking my PCP was important, I just needed to have someone assigned. I literally chose him for the fact he was close to my house. Wow, I got lucky! We went through my entire medical history and my current health and not once did he rush through the appointment - we spent around 50 minutes together, if not more. It is an understatement to say that Dr. Barrett completely understands how to care for a patient in every aspect of their health. He is compassionate, thorough, and so so smart. I am so grateful that I chose Dr. Barrett so carelessly because he is so much more than a Primary Care Physician. I look forward to being cared for by him and truly feel blessed that I landed in his lap. Thank you, Dr. Barrett!

Unfortunately, through conversation, we learned the entire pediatrics group does NOT allow parents to decide which vaccines we want our child to have, nor do they allow parents to spread them out. To clarify, we are by no means an anti-vax family. We strongly believe in vaccines and modern day medicine, but the fact that OC memorial will "Dismiss" you from their group if you don't follow their vaccine schedule, does not sit well with my family and I.

I am writing this review with a heavy heart because I truly love and respect the doctor at this…read moreclinic. The medical care is exceptional, but the office's billing system and front desk management are so disorganized and dishonest that I can no longer remain silent. I feel it is important to warn other parents about the administrative nightmares I have faced here. In October 2025, I brought both of my children in specifically for flu vaccines. I was explicitly told by the office staff that there would be no copay for flu shots. However, during a follow-up visit on January 8th for my eldest child's fever, the front office nurse suddenly claimed I owed a copay for the October visit. When I questioned this, she admitted the mistake and assured me she would remove the charge. Today, I received separate bills for both children with completely conflicting and nonsensical information: For my eldest: They claim I didn't pay the $25 copay for the January visit. This is false. I paid it on the spot, but they now claim that payment was applied to the October flu shot visit because I supposedly "asked a question" to the doctor, which they coded as a full office visit without any prior notice. For my youngest: They are charging a copay for the October flu shot visit. My youngest ONLY received the vaccine and no medical questions were asked, yet they are still demanding a copay and told me to "call my insurance" instead of fixing their own internal error. It is incredibly frustrating to be told one thing in person and then receive a completely different bill months later. The lack of transparency and the office's refusal to take responsibility for their billing errors is unacceptable. It's a shame that such a high-quality doctor is represented by such a disorganized and unprofessional front office. As much as I like the doctor, I cannot recommend this practice due to these dishonest and stressful billing practices. What hurts the most is that I genuinely wanted to support this local practice. Since I have a PPO insurance plan, I don't need a referral and could have easily gone to a local pharmacy or Costco for these flu vaccines. I chose to pay for parking and drive all the way here specifically to support the doctor's business. To be met with such dishonest billing practices and unprofessional excuses in return is deeply disappointing. I will no longer be going out of my way to support a clinic that treats its loyal patients this way.

The first time I sat in the waiting room an hour and a half after my scheduled appointment to be seen just for the dr to brush off every concern. The whole visit took over 2 hours and there was only 1 other patient. The 2nd time was 3 weeks later and I showed up 10 min early for a 10am appointment. The receptionist took vitals and the dr wasn't even in the building. We sat in the waiting room for over 40 min before deciding to leave. The dr drove past me as I was leaving the parking lot lot. Apparently coming in late is becoming a normal practice for this dr. Beware this is not a medical group. This is one individual dr that runs this office. If she's not there on time youre waiting for her. I see she used to get great reviews, but maybe time has taken its tole and the quality isn't there anymore.

She is intelligent: SO she asked me if I like to tell her. I responded that I did not want to say the reason in front of my beloved son. She then offered to speak to her out side of the patient room. Yep, she got my message and returned to my teenager son to reassure him he's all taken care of and is free to go only allow her to simply listens to his heart and lungs to confirm he is healthy and gave me what I requested. Our appoinment went smoothly and afterwards I revealed to my son for the reason of visit with Dr.Kellum. He agreed he's fine with it, too. So everything is great so far regarding my son's health. It IS being taken care of! Thanks Newport Children ! Our nurse assistant who took measured weight, temperature and blood pressure was also a pleasant person: He is gentle spirited. Sai, he said his name is. When he pressed me for the reason for my visit, I also did not give him answer.
