When he asked about my diet…read moreand I told him my ethnicity, he paused for like 5 minutes, and then he stereotypically guessed "rice", by looking at my appearance and skin color during one physical checkup. To be honest, I haven't visited him since 2022. But during the last two or three physical checkups in the past years, he kept saying the same old advice, which was not super helpful and personalized. He also couldn't identify a life-threatening stomach issue that my cousin had back in 2018 or 2019. And so, my cousin had to go to Presbyterian Hospital for urgent medical care, and luckily he was treated well there despite a weeks long hospital stay. Anyways, at first, when HE WAS MY PEDIATRICIAN both at the old address (10110 Spain NE, Albuquerque, NM 87111) and at the current address (3825 Eubank Blvd NE A, Albuquerque, NM 87111), for more than 20 years, he was doing alright, and he was initially helpful. But eventually over several years, the quality of his care and assistance declined a lot. I don't know why the New Mexico Medical Board didn't strip him of his doctor's license a LONG TIME AGO, especially due to his incompetence, ignorance, and age-related downfall.

Dr Sumner is getting older, and as much as I respect him as a man & Doctor, he doesn't always remember past visits anymore. His Nurse Practitioners are awesome & friendly but you don't always see them as they have multiple offices. They have allergy testing right in the office for allergy shots. All of this to say, all of my teens requested of us to take them to a different office and we responded by doing so. Office is *always* CLEAN and friendly.

I strongly do not recommend taking your kids here for care. My son is 5 years old, and I have been…read morebringing him here since he was born. His primary care doctor is Laura Abeyta at the Golf Course location. We have never had complaints regarding Dr. Abeyta, but after what recently happened to my son, it is not hard not to question the whole practice. On July 10th I took my son to the Holly location around 8:45pm; as he was having symptoms of diarrhea and vomiting. The provider he saw at the time was Rebecca Webb. I had given my son pain medication prior to the appointment so he seemed okay so only a physical exam was given but no further testing was done nor medication prescribed or recommended. The provider stated it could just be a stomach bug as something is going around, so we then proceeded to go home. My son and I were going to be traveling the next day so I was very persistent with letting them know we would be traveling, and I was scared my son would get worse on the way. The following morning my son woke up with a fever and had exploding diarrhea, I then called After Hour Pediatrics back to let them know my son's symptoms had worsened and I asked if they recommend, I take him in to be seen again? They stated he would be okay to just "let him go through it". I listened to them. I trusted them. As my son and I are traveling he is not doing good. We were traveling to Juarez and as soon as we made it in, I took him to a doctor, and they stated he was not well and needed to be taken to the hospital asap... We immediately crossed over to El Paso and took my son to the El Paso Children's Hospital Emergency room where he was immediately checked in and properly checked, come to find out that he had appendicitis (inflammation of the appendix, if ruptured you can die or cause complications). Unfortunately, my son's appendix did rupture which caused him to have more complications during his recovery. During recovery he absorbed an ileus (where your small intestine becomes paralyzed causing bowel obstruction). My son had to have 2 back-to-back surgeries; he was in ICU for 3 days... He was hospitalized for 10 days. Thankfully to God, powerful prayers from family and friends, and the amazing El Paso Children's Hospital Pediatric team my son is healthy and alive. I just wanted to share my story because my son could have died... I do not want any other parent or kid to go through what we went through... Had I not taken the extra step he would not be here. I put trust in After Hour Pediatrics and they let my son and I down. I am very disappointed with the way my son was not properly attended here. We will not be returning to any After Hour Pediatrics, although it may not have been all the providers fault but my son has had complications of constipation since he was a newborn, I never thought anything of it but now with finding out what my son had, could this have been prevented had Dr. Abeyta done more throughout testing during the constipation visits and maybe would have had the surgery done sooner? and the provider he saw that night, seemed like she wanted to go home as she did no testing, no labs, no ultrasounds and no medications were given, nothing was done besides an annual physical exam, if that, then the following morning another provider basically was trying to get me off the phone and did not properly advise me. It seems like the whole practice could learn something from this. Regardless I feel like this could have been prevented by After Hour Pediatrics had they properly diagnosed my son. Please never stop trusting your own gut and always stay fighting for your kid, be their advocate.

Dr. Han…read moreis extremely sweet, he even visited us in the hospital when my daughter was born to check up on us. Every time I've gone to visit, my kids have been seen by the actual doctor himself, not a nurse practitioner or some resident that I've never seen before, but the doctor. I think it's important that kids have a doctor that they know and trust. I know when I was a kid I just went to the clinic and got whoever picked the next in line. I can see that there is not as much money in the pediatric profession so finding actual pediatricians instead of clinics is getting harder and harder. Indeed this harkens to a different time when a family doctor was somebody real and personal. His style and philosophy falls well in line with mine in that I too fear the over- prescribed, and blind use of anti-biotics causes a plethora of unforeseen side effects and sometimes natural healing is best. Except... well sometimes my kids needed anti-biotics for ear infections, and bronchitis, and were sick for several weeks longer than they should have been until I took the kid to a clinic doctor who just gave her antibiotics and it was over in a couple days. There was another case of really bad eczema, Dr. Han prescribed moisturizing cream and it went on getting worse for a couple weeks longer. Ultimately a second doctor prescribed a steroid cream and everything got back under control. Now we just maintain with the moisturizing cream. In spite of a couple misses, I still take my kids to Dr. Han and will continue to do so. I will also exercise my right to seek a second opinion of other professionals if I feel he makes the wrong call. Definitely with babies, you really can't over-prescribe medications, but you also can't let them stay sick so it's a fine line that needs to be walked.

Most of the time the wait is not long at all. I noticed Ariana O's comment below and although I am sorry about the difficulties she had with her experience I wanted to comment about her saying that "he crams people in like sardines." I think it just appears that way becuase there are a total of four Dr's and two midwifes all in the same office. You walk in and it's packed, but they aren't all there to see Dr. Dandade. I have a feeling that his office will move to a larger location, especially since the hospital is now under construction.
