Dr. Mandell is kind & comforting; he always checks on the parents in addition to examining our baby. Every time I leave, he reminds me that I can call "any time with any question" because he's here to help and "loves his job." And it's apparent that he truly does. I highly recommend Pediatrics at 1180 & Dr. Mandell specifically.

I couldn't have had a better experience with Dr. Lavin. I called her (and actually talked to HER -…read morenot something you'd expect these days) a few weeks ago after finding her name on my insurance's website. At first, I didn't realize that she specializes in pediatrics, but she was happy to accept me as a patient, as I'm under 24yo. We discussed the vaccinations I needed for an upcoming trip and within a couple of days, her lovely assistant Linda called me to confirm all the details and have the vaccs ordered. Due to the winter storms, everything got backed up so Linda gave me a few recommendations for travel clinics. Meanwhile, as I dealt with that, Linda called to check in with me and make sure everything was going smoothly, which I greatly appreciated. Despite having the vaccinations elsewhere, Dr. Lavin still wanted to have me in for a physical and to discuss my travel plans. After a whole ordeal with getting the vaccinations yesterday, I called to say I wouldn't be able to make it to my 11am apt, but Dr. Lavin told me to come in whenever I could. The office was very easy to find - just a few blocks from Coolidge Corner in a large office building, on the third floor. I walked in and Linda and Dr. Lavin were incredibly happy to see me (even though I was at least 3 hours late!) After a few quick tests (height, weight, hearing) with Linda, I met with Dr. Lavin, discussed my medical history in detail, and had the physical. She took down every little detail and gave me some helpful suggestions based on my family's medical history. She explained that after years of working with a couple of local hospitals, she was tired of not having close relationships with her patients, which is why she decided to open her own practice. I wish there were more people/doctors like her out there! It's really refreshing to hear that with the state of medicine these days. I've really enjoyed the whole experience with Dr. Lavin and Linda and am very appreciative of everything they've helped me with in the last couple of weeks! I'll be back in a couple of months for bloodwork and will probably be upset when I become too old to be a patient anymore!

Our second child had some pretty serious health issues when she was a newborn and he called me at the hospital to check in every few days which meant a lot. We also love our NP Christine. You alternate seeing your Dr and NP so that two people get to know your kid and their health which I see as a positive. Yes the practice is definitely busy. You cannot just call and speak to your doctor specifically at the drop of a hat but the upside of a big practice is they have walk-in hours for sick kids 6 mornings a week so you are guaranteed to have someone look at your kid as long as you walk in the doors during that time. Its been so convenient to get kid seen (and then hopefully off to daycare and work). However whenever we have needed Dr. Amin to call us back he will as soon as he can. We have had a great experience with all of the doctors and nurses but we can highly recommend Dr. Ma as well since we have been seen by him many times during sick visits.

In short, we have had great experiences with the staff at Centre Pediatrics. Everyone has been able…read moreto answer our questions and make appointments as needed. The only issues we had was when the Patient Gateway system was getting started about a few years back. There was not enough training to help the staff help patients navigate it. It was inconvenient, but not a major issue and was resolved once training was improved. Overall, a very positive experience with this practice. I'm sorry to read about the challenges some reviewers have had. I'm happy to put out a different experience with 5 years of being a patient there.

I had a video call with Dr. R when I was pregnant (they told me it was required to meet the doctor before she can take my child as a patient) but they did not tell me they would bill my insurance for a physical.

On a side note Dr. R was great, but there are a lot of great pediatricians with better billing departments.

I can't say enough about Dr. Porter and her practice! My kids are 6 and 4 and we've been going to…read moreDr. Porter since my son was born. She, and her staff, are always available to listen, advise and help. They don't over or under medicate, they are kind, they don't send one to the ER at the drop of a hat, they provide a cell number that they answer directly at night (and into the morning). I can't say enough about how much anxiety and stress they have lifted from the job of being a parent. A recent example: my son has been coughing for weeks but has had no fever (summer cold). All of a sudden, he spike a big fever and is up all night. I call the cell number and get Dr. Porter on the way to drop her kids at camp. She tells me to call the office and bring my son in asap. We arrive at 8:30 and are seen by 8:45. They also take a look at my daughter. We left at 9:15 with a pneumonia diagnosis and medication at the CVS. Simple, no stress or worry about waiting with coughing kids in waiting room forever, no ER. I love Dr. Porter (and Dr. Chiang). My kids love her too and call her Dr. Popsicle. Who can argue with that?

The secretaries at the front always greet you with a smile and are happy to answer any questions. Staff here is absolutely fantastic. They are also very good with phone calls - in case you need to phone a nurse, they are prompt with the voicemail-box and always call back within an hour or two. Scheduling here is also much easier here than other clinics I've been to, and in my experience there hasn't been too long of a wait. Appointments never take too long and are always straight to the point. They also do same-day emergency visits. Overall nothing but a positive experience, and I would strongly recommend Roslindale Pediatrics to any parent.

I honestly don't know how they still have jobs. I dealt with this doctor's office for a year and these women have been so rude and disrespectful every single time I had to call for something or saw them in person. It was to the point where I felt uncomfortable calling about health concerns I had with my baby. Their tone of voice was so condescending and always made me feel like everything was my fault and I was doing things wrong - imagine that for a brand new parent. I don't know what makes them so entitled but they are the reason I am leaving this practice. The doctor is great but I will not be spoken to like that ever again. Even now that I called to try to come in and sign a medical release form and get my child's records, the woman on the phone basically told me that she doesn't have time for me and maybe I could get it in two weeks. The worst part is she LAUGHED on the phone when I asked her for these things. Not in a nice way but in a condescending "you are so dumb" way. Then she proceeded to tell me the office is closing soon when online and everywhere it states they are open until 4:30 PM (it's 12 right now.) She obviously just wanted to get me off the phone. I DO NOT recommend this place. The abuse from the staff is just not worth it. We have enough to worry about as parents.

Huge fan of Dr. Kerbel, very direct and to the point while maintaining a relaxed and approachable…read moremanner. He was great with our three girls. He's a five but the staff (when we went there) was about a three. Although it happened quite a while ago I remember going to the office once when one of our kids was really sick, the receptionist (who is likely and hopefully gone by now) tells me that we shouldn't bring our kids to the office if they have the stomach flu. The problem was that I didn't say she had the stomach flu, I didn't know what she had because I am not a doctor...and neither was she. I was burning mad, in addition to being incredible insensitive the comment was dangerously unprofessional as receptionists should generally keep their medical opinions to themselves. Yeah, apparently I'm still mad about this. This event I recall specifically, but there were other negative staff interactions that occurred but that I don't remember with such detail. Even if the staff is still prickly I would unreservedly recommend Kerbel.
