I've been bringing my infant to Dr Sachs since birth and we've had a great experience. I highly recommend his practice! The office is lovely, friendly staff, and kid-friendly. It's easy to make appointments and medical records are available on an online patient portal. No billing issues (they take my insurance and it's all free when we visit the office for preventive visits). We've never waited more than a couple minutes to be taken back to an exam room to take baby's measurements with a nurse, and typically only a few more minutes to see the doctor himself. Dr. Sachs himself is also highly available. We found out following our first appointment that my baby had mild jaundice and Dr. Sachs had us come back for a follow up the very next day to be cautious and do an extra blood test to make sure it was improving- I appreciated this! Test results have always been quicker than he tells us they would be. And once when I messaged him a question on the patient portal he responded within a couple hours! I picked Dr. Sachs and this pediatric practice after researching and reading reviews of several practices in the area. I liked that they offered interviews for new parents, but they also had an FAQ PDF on their website that answered all my questions so when I was pregnant I ended up saving time and picking Dr. Sachs straight away. He's been great - friendly, good bedside manner, and thorough. We feel like we're in good hands! read more

My family has had the most incredible experiences with Premier Pediatrics. Our primary doctor is Dr. Lisa Hauselman, and we love her. She is patient, kind, thorough, communicative and very knowledgeable. We feel so confident in her care and are so grateful for how she's gone above and beyond for our family. The practice is very organized and have been very impressed with the ability to make same day appointments and are generally able to see our primary doctor. We've also seen Dr. Meepos and Dr. Nourmand and have also had wonderful interactions with them. All of the nurses and office staff are so warm and patient and we have been so happy with them. I also love that they have a patient portal where we can communicate with the doctors and nurses. We highly recommend them to families that are looking for a great practice for their kiddos. read more

Both of my children 6 and 1 year olds have seen Dr. Nourmand since birth. We have had positive experiences with everyone at the office being friendly and courteous. If we've ever had questions or concerns they have been addressed immediately. In my experience, we were not forced to do anything that we were not comfortable with in terms of vaccinations. Our doctor advises us on what she believes (in her professional opinion) is best. She's always provided recommendations based on research and data. From there, we have been able to make our own choices without judgement, and yes this does include us declining certain vaccines. read more

I've been going to this place for some time now and I love the staff and facilities (and location). I'm almost 18 now so I technically can't go here anywhere, but I really enjoyed my time. Dr. Sachs is a great guy. He's relatable, thorough, and fast. Their portal is also a great tool as well. read more

'd be HIGHLY cautious about bringing your newborns here. I set up an apt for my newborn a few days after born and the receptionist (who's name I believe was Sammie) told me my newborn would have to get alll the vaccines at the first appointment and if I didn't then I would have to find another doctor. Forcing me to give my child a polio, hep B, etc shot is illegal and they should not be telling parents this. Made me extremely uncomfortable we didn't go back! Found a ped who let us make our own decisions thank God. The receptionist here are so unprofessional! read more

Great quality care. Dr. Nourmand is great. She is very thorough and takes her time with you during each visit. Supporting staff are amazing too. Highly recommend. read more

The whole office is super-competent, friendly, efficient, and provides the best care for a child and parent that you can possibly get. Our primary pediatrician at Premier Pediatrics is Dr. Michael Sachs whom I believe is the very best in Los Angelefor his knowledge, observational skills, and personal manner (see my Yelp Review for more info about him) . However, every doctor that we've seen at Premier Pediatrics is just as hyper-competent and friendly as Dr. Sachs. The office, nurses, and administrative staff are all friendly, efficient, and responsive. They keep slots open for same-day appointments which is a godsend when your kid inevitably gets sick overnight. They also have Saturday hours, and a doctor is always available on-call during off-hours. Have you ever walked into a Trader Joe's and thought, "How did they hire only friendly, helpful people?" That's how I feel about Premier Pediatrics--somehow, everybody at all positions is a pleasure to deal with. read more

We've been seeing Dr. Nourmand for going on 9 years and just adore her and the entire office. Dr. Nourmand (or Dr. Nikki, as my kids love to call her), is incredibly patient and open-minded as far as listening to the concerns of the parents and communications from the kids themselves. She is truly as good of a doctor for the parents as she is for the children she treats. I've never felt hesitant to ask her a question (and we all know that sometimes we hesitate to ask "stupid questions") and she has always been an advocate for my children if they've had to get into see any kind of specialist. She's incredibly responsive to both phone calls and emails and she is really a safety net for me and my family. When we've had sick visits and had to see other doctors in the practice I've found them all to be very caring and attentive. I'm also constantly impressed by the follow up from all the doctors when I hear from them after my kids have been in. Great doctors and a great and accessible practice. read more

We've been taking my 12 year old daughter to Dr. Hauselman since we moved to LA when she was 2. Frankly we were lucky to get accepted as a new patient. It's a very busy practice with an excellent reputation. I am a registered nurse and I can tell you that the Doctors and Nurses there go above and beyond. When my daughter was almost 10, Dr. Hauselman noticed that her growth wasn't progressing quite as it should and had us see a specialist. We found out that she has a chromosome problem. We were able to get her on growth hormones and she is thriving. If the Dr. had just brushed it off and rushed us out, we never would have known. Thanks to Dr. Hauselman, we are able to giive our daughter the extra support that she needs to live a healthy and happy life read more

Dr. Nikki Nourmand is one of the kindest humans on this planet. She genuinely cares about my child as she would her own child. She returns calls promptly and always with patience and compassion. I love her easy demeanor, I feel like I can ask her anything and she will never judge me. When my child got sick and had to be hospitalized, she called several times to check up on ME to see how I was doing, even though it was her day off. The office is professional and organized and clean. We also like Dr Lisa Hauselman and Dr Michael Sachs in the practice. Bonus that they are open on Saturdays! I highly recommend these pediatricians. read more

We've been seeing Dr. Nourmand since my son was born 9 years ago, even though we had several moves we drive the extra distance because she is such an outstanding pediatrician- extremely competent and smart, kind, with a calm and sensible demeanor. All of her explanations are clear and straightforward, and she doesn't blow things out of proportion or cause extra worry - being a new parent can be scary at times, so i was so grateful for her reassuring presence. We've seen a number of the other doctors in this practice and they're all great (since she's sometimes not available and we need a specific date). The nurses are also lightning fast with shots which helps, and you don't need to wait forever. And, if you come in and it's a viral infection they won't just prescribe antibiotics like some other practices just to seem like they did something. They're thorough and take the time to listen. Finally, the other thing i really have appreciated is that they have. doctor on call line, which has saved us visits to urgent care - just to know if there's something that is really urgent or not is so helpful. I highly recommend this practice. read more

Front office receptionist is not very friendly or polite and made my wife feel bad in front of the entire waiting room when we were a few minutes late. read more

I can't write this review without getting upset but here goes my opinion and personal experience with Dr. Hauselman that I want to share and get off my chest so other parents can make an informed decision. I was very hesitant to give my infant the Hepatitis B vaccine and wanted to wait until he was a little older since from all my research this vaccine is not one that an infant really needs at such a young age (considering how one contracts Hep B) and I could wait until later. I met with Dr. Hauselman and although she is a nice doctor when I asked her about holding off on the Hep B vaccine she seemed very annoyed and her response was "he needs it to be in my practice and he needs it to get into daycare". After she said this, I honestly felt like I had no choice. For all you moms/dads reading this - once your baby is born it is almost impossible to change pediatricians - all the "good" pediatricians dont take "transfer" or "new" patients. I felt stuck and was pressured into feeling like I wouldnt have a pediatrician for my son if I said no or that he would not get into daycare. I proceeded to try and get more information about the vaccine and asked if there was more than one brand/maker of the vaccine and which one her office carried. She did not know and had to ask one of the nurses. I kept asking if he really needed it and asked if I could hold off and she said no. For fear of no longer having a pediatrician for my son and for fear that he wouldnt get into daycare (per the Dr.'s comments), I agreed to get the Hep B vaccine that day for my son along with the other recommended vaccine. I immediately felt guilty. He has had his other shots like pentacel and prevnar and those I do NOT feel guilty about but I was just so hesitant about Hep B and Dr. Hauselman made me feel like I had no choice because if I said no then she wouldnt have administered the other vaccine that day (prevnar) which I did want for my son because that one in particular is very important for infants. However, the reason for this very negative review is when I got home I read the sheet of paper he was sent home with - you know the one that details your baby's statistics (how much he weighed, height, percentile and the vaccines administered) and to MY SHOCK and UTTER DISGUST, Dr. Hauselman had typed the following comments on that sheet of paper -"I personally provided counseling on the vaccines ordered above, risks and benefits were discussed. Vaccine information Statement(s) provided, all questions answered". WHAT!?! ARE YOU KIDDING ME?! Wow that could not be further from the truth. Telling me my son couldnt belong to her practice or wont get into daycare if he doesnt get the Hep B vaccine is NOT an explanation of the "risks and benefits" of the vaccine and vaccine statement(s) were absolutely NEVER provided. Dr. Hauselman didnt even know the maker of the vaccine the practice carried and needed to ask the nurse which brand they carried - she never ONCE provided me with ANY vaccine statement(s) to read. That night I felt so guilty that I gave my son a vaccine I didnt want to give him (I believe vaccines are important and he is up to date) but I wanted to wait on Hep B because it seems so unnecessary at 2-3 months old given how one actually contracts Hep B. I am beyond saddened that I didnt trust my mommy instinct and that I was pressured by a doctor who wrote CYA (Cover Your Ass) language for her records. My husband is my witness as he was present with me - Dr. Hauselman NEVER discussed the risks and benefits of any of the vaccines her office administered to my son that day (other than not to say he cant belong to her practice or wont get into daycare) nor did she provide any vaccine information statement(s). In fact she seemed annoyed that I was even asking why he needed Hep B at such a young age. I knew after seeing these false statements written down for her records/my son's records, I could NEVER go back to her and have since found an INCREDIBLE pediatrician who is very pro vaccine but makes me feel like "my child my choice" and ACTUALLY explains all the risks/benefits of the vaccines and was honest and told me that Hep B vaccine isnt one of the vaccines infants actually need in order to get into daycare! You live and you learn - we all want what is best for our children. I am sharing this personal experience because in my opinion I think other parents who find themselves wanting to know more about the vaccines used on their children and look to their doctor for guidance would want to know about this experience. I understand Dr. Hauselman thinks all vaccines are important and that is fine but I dont appreciate the false statements that she wrote on my son's records. Another thing - this office does not have a separate "well/sick" entrance which may not seem like a big deal but should be! I didnt like that my infant was in the same waiting room and exam room as other children who may have had strep, the flu, etc., that day. read more

As a graduate in early childhood education from UCLA, mandated reporter for LA County and a 25 yr veteran in the teaching field, I am absolutely disappointed and disheartened by the extremely poor care rendered by Dr Schreiber at premier pediatrics. Having a PPO platinum policy, we could go to any doctor of choice but chose this clinic BEFORE our son was born after consulting with the doctor on our expectations. After the first 2 months, the doctor disappeared without any notice for 4 months due to "personal reasons." Without any notification or common courtesy to communicate with us in any capacity. We were shuffled from one doctor to another, creating a great strain in my son's wellness visits. We were given incorrect diagnosis on several occasions (SCARY!) coupled with the office being highly disorganized and careless with communication reeking havoc with our work schedules. They scoff at any idea of natural remedies and shove medications down your throat for every concern you may have (i.e.: temp, tooth aches etc) because they can't bill you for natural protocol- sickening! This has single handedly been the worst medical practice experience in my life and I strongly urge parents to reconsider their decision to take their children here. I rarely, if ever take the time to write a negative review, but this clinic has enraged me with lack of empathy, care, and any interest of the well being of newborns and young children. Run...don't walk!!! Awful!!! If I could give it a zero star I would. Look elsewhere for your child's own wellness and personal health. This place is a disaster and they could not manage basic procedures during covid. Terrible! Shame on your premier pediatrics for proving to be this way to new families and their young children!! read more

I have been taking my three children to this practice since birth and they are always helpful and caring and get us in. Nurse Pam is a gem and Dr. Schrieber and Dr. Nourmand always give my kids thorough check-ups. They are extremely attentive and dedicated doctors and the staff makes it a much more welcoming experience. I highly recommend this practice! read more

Dr. Lisa Hauselman has been our children's pediatrician since my first daughter was born in 2010. Since the day we became parents she has been there for us in more ways then I would have ever expected. From the big emergencies to the to the smallest concerns, I never hesitate to call and she is always there for me. My three kids have grown to love her and even look forward to go to the office for their check ups. After extensive interviewing we ultimately decided on Dr. Hauselman, because of her approach to vaccinations. At the time I was very nervous about giving vaccines with all the literature that was coming out against it. I had a lot of questions and concerns and was looking for guidance. Dr Hauselman was beyond patient and understanding with me. She took the time I needed to discuss all our options. She never once pushed an agenda, but did offer her medical opinion and shared the research that backed it up. We ultimately implemented a modified vaccine schedule for our children that allowed us to take a much slower approach. It wasn't until this recent Measles outbreak that she encouraged us to get up to date on their MMR vaccines. But, again, never once forced our hand. We can't thank her enough for her patience, valuable input and care. Dr. Lisa Hauselman is always there for our family and we all feel extremely fortunate to have her as our pediatrician. read more

Simply the best there is out there. We love and trust Dr Sachs and his team. The nurses/staff are friendly, efficient, understanding, and very thorough. When Dr Sachs is not in we have received the same stellar experience from all of the Doctors that are part of this group. Everyone follows up and calls are always returned. There's never ever been a long wait time which is so impressive! We truly feel from Premier Pediatrics that our children's health and wellness is the number one priority. read more

This practice is phenomenal. From the physicians to the nurses to the office staff--they are superlative. We see Dr. Hauselman and have seen other doctors in the practice as well. They are caring, attentive, and the quality of their referrals for pediatric eye doctors, dentists and others is top notch. I recommend Premier Pediatrics to everyone. read more

Our baby is six months old and so far we are loving Premiere. We started out with Dr. Sachs as he was on call when our baby was born, and Dr. Sachs caught his tongue tie - which was remedied that day. Dr. Lisa Hauselman is our main physician but we've seen just about every doctor there and each person has taken their time to answer all our questions, we've never felt rushed. Dr. Hauselman, and all physicians, have been so supportive of my personal needs as a new mom. She makes sure I know I'm supported when I could only supply a little breast milk, and if that means we need to formula feed only they are positive and behind "fed is best" and a happy mom means a healthier baby. Margy (sp?), who has administered our kiddo's vaccines, is phenomenal. She walks our baby through every step of getting a shot. It's a benefit to us because she's really walking us through it, but I so appreciate that she - and the staff - speak to our baby in a calm adult tone. No baby talk here! Just upbeat, calm, confident speak. Great people from the reception team to the physicians! read more

We've be very happy with Dr. Nourmand, and ALL of the nurses and staff at Premier Pediatrics. Our first son was in the NICU and Dr. Nikki made us feel comfortable and checked in regularly. Every office visit is professional and despite not having a sick and well waiting room, the front desk makes sure you are put in a room quickly, especially when you have a newborn. Any time I call with a question regarding our children, or when I called while pregnant (any questions with regards to nursing and taking medication), Nurse Pam is always so sweet, knowledgeable and efficient and will loop in Dr. Nikki as well. So far, I feel informed and our children in very good hands at this practice. read more

Dr Pam was an absolute savior to help my daughter to get a quick physical so that she could play in sports at her high school. She went out of her way to let us in without an appointment so my daughter would not lose out in tryouts as she is new at the high school. Thank you soooooo much. Well appreciated!!!! read more

To say that this is a public love letter is not an understatement. Even though I send love notes to Dr Susie often and randomly...this woman exemplifies fastidious and thorough care. From the moment we met her she went above and beyond to answer my questions and allay my concerns. I have three daughters 18, 15, and 11 that know that Dr Susie will listen, care and keep them safe. She has seen us through traumatic events and I mean real traumas and we have always felt like we were her priority. She has even diagnosed the most random rashes, and weird lumps...all! She calls to check up on us and lets me know...we are not alone. She is never allowed to retire!!! She will always be my Dr Susie, our doctor and our trusted friend. The office is full of my most favorite ladies... Pam, Shaun, Margy, and the other doctors are all the top of the top, the best of the best. However... Dr Susie is a doctor of heart... a doctor that I love with my whole heart. read more

I've been sending my kids to Dr. Hauselman for 8 and a half years. I have an incredible relationship with her and feel that my children are completely cared for. We never wait in the waiting room for sick visits. Most visits we wait around 15 min to be seen by the doctor with other work done by nurses during that wait. So by the time doctor arrives she has all the info she needs. I have never felt rushed by her. She answers all my questions thoroughly. When she's not available, the other doctors in the practice cover her. Over the years we've seen all of them and have been well cared for. When my son was born he had jaundice and Dr. Hauselman was on vacation. My son received all the care he needed (maybe a little too much testing from one doc, but I'd rather err on the side of caution). Dr. Hauselman was so reassuring with me as a new mother and really helped me make sense of caring for a newborn. She was also very concerned and supported me during bouts with post-partum after both children. Over the years she's helped my kids with a variety of concerns and offers top notch referrals to specialists. She's affiliated with Cedars so her referrals will often be through that system. We prefer UCLA so I have gone there instead at times for specialists and she's been good about coordinating care with those doctors as well. I recommend her completely. read more
