Over the years, I have had up and down experiences with Laurelwood. Here are my pros and cons: PROS: Friendly staff Great nurses Docs come highly recommended CONS: Our doctor is lovely but I feel like she's given me very limited options over the years to treat my sons autism and severe ADHD. Talking to other mothers, I felt like there were other options but when I brought them up, she always suggested staying the route. She referred us to a psychiatrist once but that was not a good experience. I once asked her if we could consult with another doctor in the practice because I had seen several articles he and others had written about his expertise with autistic kids. She took offense to my question and said she was the "autism expert" at Laurelwood. I did not like that and considered it to be very unprofessional. If your child is well and has no disabilities, I could see why you think this practice is perfect. However, if your child is sick on a regular basis or has disabilities, I would suggest finding a pediatrician who is open to trying everything possible to help your child.

She never makes me feel unknowledgeable or like I am asking a silly question. I would recommend her 20 times if I could. Her office staff is also great! When I was searching for a pediatrician before I had my daughter I looked up info about the references I had from my OBGYN. When I called to ask about new patients Dr. Sweeten's staff took my information, provided me with clinic specifics, and let me know there was nothing else I needed until baby was born. When my daughter was born about a week later she came to see her in the hospital and visited her throughout the weekend. On my first office visit we received a Comprehensive Associates onesie along with a red tutu as a welcome baby gift. She is thoughtful, kind, and has excellent bedside manner. Oh-- another plus is she actually has some type of student service learning partnership with a nearby university which I LOVE because she is training up our next generation of pediatricians. If you choose Dr. Sweeten I promise you wont regret it. :)

I explained that wasn't possible for multiple reasons. They said they would call back and never did. THREE WEEKS LATER, we needed refills and a follow-up to our original issue. I called and their number was 'out of service.' We went up there and they were closed (on a Friday before 3pm!!) with no sign on the door. We called around frantically. I called on Tuesday and the receptionist had the nerve to be rude when I kindly explained our concern and needs. She said that in her notes they told us 3 weeks ago 'to do XYZ' which was completely untrue (are you adding false call notes to his medical records??) We also paid for genetic testing and never got the results. When I called to ask for the status (3 months later), they said 'oh, we can email them to you.' But didn't know when. What were they waiting on? These are too many errors for our liking.

Rest assured that if you have a doctor at the Memphis Children's Clinic then your child is in good hands. My child's doctor is Scott Kloek and he is fantastic. He listens to any concerns I have and is great with my daughter. He explains any terminology to both myself and my daughter. Dr. Whitehead is another doctor in the clinic that I have seen and he also has an excellent rapport with both the parents and the children. They offer the kind of service you'd expect from a private practice without the lengthy wait. All in all one of the best Ped groups in the city.

They had a newborn seminar a month before I gave birth and I am glad they did. It was a great introduction to learn about their office and their physicians. The thing that attracted me to them was their professionalism and commitment to being available for their patients. They have extended hours for those who may not be available during the morning hours. You can go on nights and weekends. With that said, I chose Dr. Yani as our pediatrician. At the newborn, seminar his personality was very straightforward, he was knowledgable, and he seemed very patient and kind. I have been taking my baby boy for the past 6 months and I can say he has been all of those things. He is very reassuring, kind, patient, and available. Anytime I call him or text him, he is quick to respond. He does everything in his power to make sure that parents are not making unnecessary visits to the hospital. He has provided my family and I with a peace of mind. Office visits are normally smooth. When we check in, it's not long before we are called to the back. A nurse takes us to our room and get right into checking vitals, milestones, and explaining the process of the visits and the treatment/shots that he will be receiving. Once done, Dr. Yani comes in and check him and discuss any concerns we any concerns we may have. After the visit, we set out next appointment with ease.

I went for my daughter's ear piercing, and instead of handling her with care, she was literally pushing my baby's face into the bed. After all the trauma my baby went through, she still couldn't pierce the ears properly - the holes ended up completely uneven from the markings she herself made. To make matters worse, she just rushed off to the next patient without any concern. I would never recommend this doctor; she truly should not be practicing anymore.

Since there are a good number of doctors, scheduling and rescheduling appointments is very convenient; you can even schedule on the day of if needed. For those sudden sicknesses, they have a sick waiting room and also a well patient waiting room for check-ups. We also love the convenient online check-in that can be completed from home. If completed before arrival, you can just quickly check in with the receptionist then head to the waiting room -- no refilling out papers every visit! All the office staff and nurses that we have met have been very helpful and friendly, and the nurses are super fast with shots! If you blink, you'll miss them!
