The front desk refused to let us do a scheduled appointment unless we pay cash. My kids go to this office for 2 years, we never failed to pay the bill on time. I filed a complain message to them, no response. I decided to walk away. Just let you know the worst experience I ever have had in this office. No any impressive experience from Doctors in this office, skills and attitudes on average level.

I have children with asthma, one who was a preemie, sleep apnea, and some other issues. We have seen many doctors and have been extremely pleased with Dr. Gorum. She has a great relationship with all three of my kids, they have been under her care for the last four years. I would recommend her to any mother. She spends time listening and has a conversation with you about what the best plan of action is if needed. I trust her completely. She is an extremely intelligent woman who truly partners with parents to help support their children.

It's such a difference working with a pediatrician who will listen and take a whole child approach. A HUGE shout out to the NP Kelly who administered my sons vaccine today. She was kind and patient and for the first time we didn't have a full blown breakdown. I'm so thankful to be back in the competent and talented arms of Dr Borba and her staff. It ultimately means a healthier childhood for my son. So grateful!

LEAVE PAMF / SUTTER HEALTH as soon as you can !!! or you will die…read moreIn the last 5 years its completely ruined after Sutter Health bought it. There care quality and professionals have DETERIORATED badly Doctors are booked out for months and its impossible to even see your own PCP. And God Forbid if you need a specialty doctore, you are doomed. They have hired Nurse Practitioners (NP) and Physician Assistants (PA) who are NOT Medical Doctors. You are mostly thrown to the NP or PA who know nothing. They are just bodies to fill appointments. I have been with PAMF for over 10 years and my experience was really good up until 2019 when it was taken over by Sutter Health ! Its run like a business. The CEO is an ACCOUNTANT and other leadership team members are too. They have NO Medical experience therefore its just a number game for them. Because of them I landed in ER with a heart condition. LEAVE PAMF AND JOIN KEISER OR ANY OTHER MEDICAL HEALTH FACILITY WOULD BE BETTER.

She helped guide my teen emotionally and physically during a very vulnerable point in her life. Dr. M recognized when another specialist was appropriate and connected us with other great resources, diagnosed issues correctly, and acted as an advocate for my kid. Don't let her sweet nature fool you - she's as smart as a whip, connects well with teens (which is important in terms of getting straight answers from them), and respects their privacy by asking parents to step out. I'm SO glad we found her. Great person to boot.

Our regular pediatrician is on maternity leave but I was confident that we would have a great experience. I was skeptical of the odd low review because the rest spoke so highly of him.
