    She did insist I continue to nurse and supplement with formula, but not to stop at least until baby decided on his own...

    I switch pediatrics because my children's previous doctor became out of network. Our first visit…read morewas with Dr. Nigam, I explained to her my daughter has been loosing hair (most likely alopecia), so she ordered for blood work to get to the root cause. Once we completed the blood work I later found out when trying to see her result that we did blood work that had nothing to do with her alopecia and it was for kids who are starting school. I was so mad. How can you make that mistake? I ended up talking to Dr. Troung and he told me he would request for my daughter to do another blood work with the correct lab test. I don't know if it was the doctor's mistake or the front desk but my daughter is only 4 and having her redo blood work again in the same month was the worst. On top of that my insurance bills me the second time for almost 2k. The front desk said my insurance would cover it. The front desk girl would never call me to update me on anything. I'd have to call multiples times just for her to have the answer already but never gave me a heads up. This place was very unprofessional. I even tried making an appointment for my son because he had things all over his face and the front desk girl said she'd have Dr. take a look if I sent a photo and would call me back afterwards. Never called me back, few days later once my son's symptoms cleared, I get an email saying they sent over medication to my pharmacy. Like what kind of business is this. I'm currently going to another pediatrician. If you guys want a place that is on top of everything do not come here. It was so stressful and such a mess with the front desk.

    Just from Central Valley, California, and I was really nervous for my daughter that we wouldn't be…read moreable to find a good pediatric for her. But I am so incredibly grateful that we did. We have been to this center multiple times as the winter time has created a few viruses and every time we call we are prioritized, and advised as best as possible. They don't question us, and truly seek the best for our children. I couldn't be happier with the doctors and staff here making our family feel safe , secure and comfortable with the care provided at rainbow medical center.

    Disgusted by this pediatric office!…read more I requested my twin boys vaccination records for thier new doctors. We moved and needed to find a new doctor. My boys are currently 22 months old. We complete their 6, 9 and 12 month vaccinations at this office. They failed to update the california registry with this information. So my new doctor did not have this importation information. When I reached out for this information they requested $30 for each child. This fee is unheard of at any other office! I am furious that they would have the audacity to take advantage of parents. To be honest our time in the office included LONG waits. 4 out of the 6 visits was with a different doctor because Dr. Puri was either out of the country or recovering from surgery. Inconsistency in the doctors means our boys were being mixed up constantly! At least that the impression we received during our first visit that lasted close to 2 hours!!! After that visit we separated thier appointments. Stay away

( I actually read some reviews on here and Seems like a pattern) My son, has a chronic asthma and is constantly in need of his inhaler. To get a refill or to simply get some school paperwork done they require a visit. As we all know every doctor visit requires copayments /dr fees or what not. I feel like they want me to wait till I need to go to the ER to get his asthma medication. This should not be the case. Lets not even talk about receptionist not friendly, very rude. and by looking at some other reviews seems to be the case. My experience has not been the best from start to finish. I was also new to the area. Check google review for reference

    The doctor really missed the ball on helping both my kids. Rather than focusing on what we as the…read moreparents needed for our kids (pain management concerns), the doctor focused on assessing our kids for abuse and mental health issues. When asking for tests and lab work to be done, the doctor refused. As parents, we know our kids and simply made a request for diagnostic test to figure out what their issues are. My son had headaches for a few months, the doctor blew it off as too much screen time. He had a subdural bleed in his brain and needed emergent brain surgery to relieve pressure approx 1 week later. My wife pleaded with her to do a scan at this appointment. The doctor refused and said limit screen time and take some Tylenol. My daughter had leg pain, but no outward physical injury was noted. She did an xray after we told her it is not a bone break. The doctor did not even do a simple physical that would have indicated severe scoliosis and pressing on the nerve. She sent us off with no answers. After my son fell ill, the doctor felt a sense of guilt and tried to get us to come back to get referral for neurology. Something she should have done the first visit. So, we asked ourselves, is she incompetent or just looking for money from multiple visits. We are now seeking treatment elsewhere. I implore any parent to always check into the doctors reviews. Ask questions and insist on in depth evaluations. Ask for a complete system assessment. Needless to say we are saddened by the poor evaluations and are now facing extreme health issues that could have been caught earlier if the doctor did what she should have in the beginning.
