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.

Mixed feelings
Our family has used this practice for over 20 years. We love the other two doctors here. It’s hit or miss when we see Dr Mariwalla. There have been times where she was spot on with issues, but have been too many occasions where she has dismissed my concerns, and we have either ended up at urgent care or ER after hours, with multiple children on multiple occasions. She tries to rush through most appointments - though newborn appointments have generally been fine. But when it comes to a major illness, we have had too many poor experiences to rate her any better, unfortunately.

My 15 month old daughter was barking like a dog and struggling to breath normally so naturally I made an appointment and brought her to see her pediatrician. The doctor must have spent maybe 5 minutes examining her and dismissed the fact that she was seriously ill and blamed it on "possible allergies" Keep in mind that my daughter just recently had a very nasty croup cough. But okay, she is the doctor and what do I know right? Three days later we had to bring her to the emergency room because of her relentless cough and a fever of 104.8 where they took chest x-rays that showed she has pneumonia. This is the second time we have brought her to this doctor office and the second time they dismissed it as allergies or something not that serious. At this point, we cannot switch pediatrician offices any faster.

This practice was highly recommended to us. After 6 years of them caring for our two children, I never would want them to be in any other hands. You are ALWAYS able to get an appointment. We have to travel 30 minutes to them and it is 100% worth it. They take time to know your child. They have sunday and evening hours. They take the time to speak with you and explain everything. They ALWAYS call back the same day. Obviously we are very happy with them.

Dr. Mariwalla and her office are in my opinion the best there is. I can always get my children an appointment--usually never waiting long. I have been taking my children there since birth, 19yrs in February to be exact, never had any second thoughts. I also can not say enough about Dr. Bobby(Nagpal). We all love him! Simply the best there is in a pediatricians office.
