    I took my daughter to Valley Children's clinic in Merced. She was diagnosed with having a…read morepilomatricoma (similar to a small cyst) on her neck. The doctor said that it could easily be removed with surgery. Before the surgery was scheduled, the clinic sent me an estimate of what the operation would cost. The estimate was just over $13,000. A friend of mine suggested contacting a dermatologist to avoid putting her through surgery. The dermatologist said that removing it would be a simple in-office procedure. We decided that was the better of the two options. As planned, the doctor numbed the area, removed the small protrusion, put a few stitches in, and sent her on her way. The cost was around $400. My question is: WHY WOULDN'T VALLEY CHILDREN'S EXPLAIN THAT AN OPERATION WASN'T NECESSARY IN THIS CASE? Why was surgery with an anesthesiologist recommended rather than opting for a much simpler (and less expensive) in-office procedure? I have one additional complaint to offer here. The one-time office visit to Valley Children's clinic (explained above) lasted about 15 minutes. I received a doctor's bill for that visit and paid it right away. Later I received a separate bill from the clinic and questioned what the requested $189 was for. It seems that the clinic is entitled to charge a patient for walking in the door. That charge is separate from the doctor's charge. To me, this doesn't seem fair. While I do believe Valley Children's Hospital and clinics help many kids with major medical problems, they are definitely an over-priced alternative to other avenues of medical care. In this case, I believe the non-profit organization was being intentionally deceitful.

    Dr. porras was my daughters primary care pediatrician. She…read moreis very patient and explains everything very well. Overall I'm glad I switched my daughter over to this clinic it's the best in my opinion and would recommend.

    Sunshine pediatric is absolutely horrible my daughter had her 2 month check up today while waiting…read morein the waiting area a doctor went up to one of the secretaries and asked about patients insurance so she could see who to take next she said this loud enough for all the patients in the waiting area to hear absolutely inappropriate secondly we waited 2 1/2 hours to be seen for vaccines and for my daughter acid reflux just for the doctor to talk to me like I was a child and tell me everything I already knew then proceeded to tell me my child doesn't have pyloric stenosis after she was diagnosed by a different doctor in the practice. If you would love to waste your time please come here otherwise please DO NOT come to this office ‍‼‼‼‼‼‼‼

    I'll start by saying Dr. Johnston delivered me 38 years ago. I was so excited for him to be my…read moredoctor. My first visit i was 110lbs. The ay i gave birth i was 213lbs. I kid you not every single day that i was pregnant i was sick. smells, even standing up made me sick. I would feel starving i would eat then it would come back up over and over. I would sweat from every pore in my body and feel like i wanted to faint. All things i reported to dr. Johnston. Nothing was looked into. I gained so much weight my stretch marks were ripping and becoming sores. I went to a doctor about it and was humiliated when the doctor was in such shock but offered no help. I didn't realize this wasn't right until my second pregnancy when i only gained 25 lbs. From the moment i got pregnant i had diabetes. How did he not recognize this? It could have taken mine and my babies life. My son was so big he was born not breathing due to being stuck on my pelvic bone. they called code blue it was the most horrifying experience of my life. My son is now 19 and i am still very much traumatized.

    No professionalism from the Staff. Horrible experience. I had a 3 PM appointment and the…read morereceptionist was very stone faced & rude & not welcoming. Then I waited in the lobby for 35 mins before being called back to see Dr. Kano. I then waited in the back room for another hour. No contact from any of the staff to tell me what was going on, it was very frustrating. I ultimately left the appointment and said I did not want to be charged for this appointment or want my insurance company charged. We'll see what happens with that. I have had this problem at this clinic before. I tried switching from the Merced location to the Atwater location with no better treatment. I do not recommend Dr. Kano as he never listens to my heart with a stethoscope. I was diagnosed with an irregular heartbeat last September 2024 from a different Dr. I was concerned, & immediately reached out to my primary care Dr Kano. His staff he could not see me until December of 2024 . Clearly no regard for my health. I asked for a referral to a heart specialist & was told they don't do referrals? Dr. Kano never listens to my lungs, even when I came in with bronchitis? So many concerns. I'm very let down by Dr. Kano. He has had me on a high blood pressure prescription for about 15 years. I have had fainting spells, and my blood pressure from my doctor visits have always been low. When I became alarmed to my lack of care in Merced County, I went to a different doctor in Southern California, they immediately took me off this medication. My blood pressure is now within regular parameters. I have had no more fainting spells. Run screaming from this doctor he is completely unqualified & uncaring.

    Mrs Duran is always the best ! Listening always! I moved from hilmar to Atwater because she's that…read moregood!
