The Best Pediatrician in Augusta, Georgia!…read more I've had the privilege of being in the presence of Dr. Harold J. Acevedo. He has seen all four of our children 4,8,13, and 14 over the years. Our first visit with him was in 2010. We have a son with a reflux problem and a daughter with special needs. Dr. Acevedo was always there four us. It was hard changing formulas three different times but that didn't stop until Dr. Acevedo was satisfied. During my observation, he hasn't made any mistakes. The new practitioner Ashley Dahlmann FNP-C and the old one Kilauna Edwards A.P.R.N., NP-C have been fantastic. I can't forget about M.Pena, L.Smith, and D. Russell thank you. Currently, we are a homeschooling family and have been the past five years. Our last pediatrician was not helpful and understanding when it came to homeschool. Dr. Acevedo frequently made statements such as my hat goes off to you, the children are beautiful, and keep up the good work! He will support your family when it comes to pediatric needs. I don't know what we would do without him or his encouragement every year. Thank you so much Dr. Acevedo!

Very frustrating that a doctors time is more valuable than mine is. He gets to charge, but I don't? Ridiculous! He's been all of our kids doctor for years and he is nice enough with the kids, but today's experience is less than stellar.

Today I had my first appointment with Doctor Ray Johnson, Cardiologist at Piedmont Hospital…read more With any appointment with a Cardiologist, one has a certain amount of anxiety about what the results maybe of that experience. Well, Doctor Johnson, after a careful examination went over every detail of what pervious and today's EKG reading really meant. In plain layman terms he explained in a very friendly manner what the results were, putting to rest the dreadful feeling of doom by simply stating "your results are simply put, you're in great shape." And looking at the whole person history Dr. Johnson came up with some positive suggestions to stay in good health. His friendly manner will put any patient at ease and his explanation of the process ensures one is fully informed about their concerns and all questions are answered. Can I recommend- Yes I can and Do!

I saw Dr. Robyn Black for the first time in March of this year. Yes, I did have to fill out the new…read morepatient paperwork in advance, and it was about a month before I was called to schedule an appointment, but that was fine with me, as my first appointment was a wellness check. When I arrived for the appointment, the wait was not long at all. I love Dr. Black, and the staff was very friendly and professional. Dr. Black made me feel very comfortable. The visit was not rushed, and I came away feeling that she is a very competent and caring doctor. I would definitely recommend Dr. Black and Center for Primary Care!

I recently moved and my old PCP referred me thinking it was the centeral primary care practice for…read moreAugusta University. They were wrong. Do yourself a favor and just call AU health's central appointment line. The staff can't make appointments without new patient forms filled out. And they can't expedite new patient appointments based on patient needs. There is no webform and no way to submit the form via a modern interface like email. Instead you have to go though their disastrously implemented new patient portal (separate from their patient portal that is accessible though the website) doesn't seem to transmit jpegs or pdfs despite showing them in the sent folder. The person on the phone can't tell you if your forms went through on their garbage messaging system. Even if they do go through, the doctor has to 'accept' you. There is no time expectation for this step, it takes as long as it takes, could be weeks. Is this an exclusive club or a primary care doctor? Each time I call they tell me my expected wait for my new patient appointment is longer, from 2 weeks the first time I called and attempted to submit the form to 4-6 weeks today. There were too many red flags, I just couldn't believe this complete lack of professionalism and poor service. Thank goodness I called the AU central line today, they gave me an new patient primarily care appointment two days from now. If I had started with AU I could have avoided hours of stress and headaches and some urgent care and ER visits. Don't be fooled!

For my very first review of the year, I'd like to write specifically about Dr. Paige Ward, one of…read morethe doctors here at this practice. I cannot stress the importance of a good support team when you're a new parent. It takes a village to raise a child but when it's just you and your hubby, a phenomenal pediatrician saves is a lifeline when you have those sleepless nights worrying about your child. As a proud first time mom who has absolutely no experience raising children, I had a lot of questions when my baby was born. How do I hold her? Is that noise coming out of her normal? is she supposed to be cross-eyed? She coughed. Does that mean she's sick? And so many poop questions. You'll be surprised how much you learn about poop and gas and farting when you become a parent. As a mom who has a special needs child, my concerns are a little different than some other parents. I have to worry about her ability to breathe on her own, swallow, and hold her head. I have tiny white hairs on my head that basically serve as a timeline for when I get the most stressed and how long I've been stressed. Routine checkups aren't typical checkups for us and after 2 months of being in and out of the hospital, I can confidently say I've lucked out with one of the best doctors in Augusta. And I'm so grateful she's looking after my daughter. I have seen Dr. Ward practically once every other week and she has never once made us feel rushed, uncomfortable, or uneasy with anything that was going on in the exam rooms. She walks in with a big warm smile (in a very timely manner by the way), listens to every concern you have, handles your child like they were her own and pushes for the best possible treatment options for your baby as well. She asks if your opinion on any other doctors seeing your child and really encourages you to open up 'cause as she likes to say, "this is what I would do if it was my child." We always walk out of the office feeling confident and uplifted because our daughter's doctor has never once let us down. We go home with more knowledge, a game plan and a follow up plan every single time. It's the best feeling in the world knowing that someone so amazing has made it their business to make sure your kid is their top priority. And it's not just when you're in the exam room. We've received follow up calls at home and at the hospital from her personally because she's just that compassionate. All doctors should be like her. If I won the lottery, I'd pay beautiful people to shower the ground she walks on with rose petals like in "Coming to America." And yes, she really does deserve it.

I cannot thank her enough for being my child's Dr and that she takes such good care of us, explains every thing that she says so that I can understand it, and she also talks to my daughter and holds her while she is talking to me with the biggest smile on her face . every person that asks me about a good Dr I recommend then to her! Thank you so much Dr Ward for everything you do. I can't thank you enough!
