Dr Butler has been my son's pediatrician since the day he was born; he came to Sharp Mary Birch and…read moredid his first exams in the hospital and he has been his doctor for fifteen years now and I wouldn't trust anyone else with my special needs child. He has given me the very best medical and parenting advice and I have always found him to be nothing but kind, caring, honest, and professional. He has provided me with great referrals over the years when I've needed them and his office is very flexible with appointments when there is an illness, which is something any parent can appreciate! From the beginning I never wavered in placing my trust in Dr Butler as I have found his calm demeanor to be extremely soothing under the most stressful of circumstances. He performed my son's circumcision and helped me through his endlessly long and grueling period of infant reflux that felt eternal to me. We still joke about his history of being on the bottom of the weight percentile. Growing up in a military family I didn't have a regular doctor that I saw. Because my dad always worked in navy hospitals and clinics, often when I was sick instead of going to see a doctor, he would just have one come over to our house. I like that my son instead has the stability of growing up with the same doctor that he can trust to talk to about his medical care. I also love that Dr Butler is still working with the same nurse all these years later, Tammy. She's really awesome and gives shots super fast and gentle. Most medical offices these days have a lot of turnover, so it's a great reflection on both Dr Butler and nurse Tammy that they are still here working together all these years later. I only wish that everyone I came across in the medical community were as gentle, caring, and committed as they are because it would definitely make the world a better place.

Office is okay, but Dr. Riley Walker is very unprofessional!…read more My son had leg pain in his leg and woke up every night for more than 6 months in so much pain. When I asked him to walk to me so I could massage his leg, he couldn't even walk. I was begging the doctor for blood tests or an ultrasound, but she said it was NOT NECESSARY! And her answer just killed me. She said my son was MANIPULATING me. She is a doctor who doesn't know that small kids don't know what manipulation is and can't do it. My son was always welcome to our bed if he woke up at night; we never said no to him. So she didn't give us any prescriptions! After some time, it happened again at night, and his pain was so strong that he was screaming so badly that we took him to the emergency room at night! All because our doctor didn't do anything besides saying that he was a manipulator. We do not recommend this doctor.

I have followed Dr. Tami Arlata's career since her time at UCSD, and I feel incredibly fortunate…read morethat she is now my children's pediatrician. She is the rare physician who combines exceptional clinical skill with genuine warmth, patience, and humanity. She listens carefully, explains every concern clearly, and never makes us feel rushed. She gives each question her full attention and consistently takes the extra time needed to make sure both the child and parent feel comfortable, informed, and understood. Her clinical judgment is excellent, and I trust her completely. What makes Dr. Arlata especially remarkable is the way she makes children feel. She has such a bright, calming presence that her aura alone feels healing and comforting. She brings warmth and positive energy into the room, connects naturally with kids, and makes them feel safe. Dr. Arlata is not only an outstanding pediatrician, but also an extraordinary person. We are so grateful to have found her and could not recommend her more highly.

Dr. Cheffet was extremely diminishing of parental rights. She was pushy and disrespectful. And eventually threatened me if I wouldn't vaccinate my child in her practice under a vaccine schedule (that is now obsolete). Did you not get your big payout for the percentages of patients you vaccinate??? I might've messed with her percentages so she retaliated by breaking my HIPAA rights and reporting me for " negligence" to CPS. We took my son to her very regularly. He got support for every need. She doesn't respect parental rights. I wouldn't be intimidated by her. We have a medical exemption because my child has a very high allergy Profile, neurodivergent and high risk for adverse reaction.. At one point she said there was no risk in vaccinating so I said I would agree if she would sign to be Financially liable, if there were any adverse effects. of course she refused.... Hack of a "doctor". Deplorable ethics. I hope she gets the karma for all those parents. She intimidated for her big vaccine payouts. She's going out on now. I'm gonna report her to the medical board. Gross.

I take all three of my…read morekids, ages 10 months, 4 years, and 7 years old, to see her since we have moved out to San Diego. If you like the type of doctor that isn't in-n-out, she is the one to see. She takes time to hear out any concerns you or the patient may have and does a thorough examination in order to address those concerns. Dr. Cheffet is also very knowledgeable in sports medicine, although, she is not a sports doctor, she does know what she is talking about. She also is an Internal Medicine doctor. So, if you are looking for a doctor, come see her, she is awesome! Dr. Cheffet is no longer at this practice, but I hear she has relocated to another one still in town. If you're lucky enough to find her you won't regret it.
