Your trust is our top concern.

We strive to keep reviews honest, trustworthy, and fair.

Doctors can not pay for good reviews, nor can they pay to have negative reviews removed.

We monitor all reviews to ensure they comply with our guidelines and don’t include personal information, profanity, libel, defamation, harassment, obscenity or fraud.

Any reviews that are deemed fraudulent or violate our guidelines will be removed immediately.

All reviews are confirmed and audited before publication, and community members have the ability to flag inappropriate content for further review by our team.

Dr. Astacio is a phenomenal Docter as well I trusted my children under his care for many years. Always professional and I sincerely appreciate all he has done for my children, we have relocated to another state and his office staff and pediatric care is missed.

We are definitely finding a new pediatrician! I called our pediatrician today at 3:30 because Matthew had a 101.5 fever. The pediatrician's office closes at 4:30, but the receptionist, Brittany, said that they would not see him because they were seeing their last patient for the day. They said to take him to Childrens Healthcare. SERIOUSLY? MATTHEW IS ONLY 5 MONTHS OLD. So I called back at 4 and got an outside answering service for after hours (remember they don't close until 4). She called the

If you have any hesitation or questions about vaccines or medications before giving to your child, do not go here. I took our child in for his scheduled vaccines and felt uncomfortable about what was contained in them and the reactions they cause. I had some questions for the Doctor before starting and he told me there is the door, and to find another Doctor if I didn't want to vaccinate my child. If a Doctor cannot educate and make you feel comfortable then shame on them!
