I was his patient from 5 to about 20 when they finally told me I had to find an adult office . Since then, he has seen all 3 of my kids until we moved out of state. When my 4th is due, I plan to call and have her seen at least once by the GOT. Between my care, my brothers care, my kids care, and my nephews care - he has never been incorrect about a diagnosis or not given us the tools to fix an issue. You won't be in better hands anywhere else! - sincerely.... one of his now ancient "little chiefs" read more

I don't see how ANYONE can leave a negative review on Dr. McCrimons. He's a truly genuine, caring & extremely knowledgeable. He even has helped me with my own health and wellness. We were first introduced to him when we brought our son to get circumcised and despite the traumatic experience witnessing my baby boy in that much anguish, Dr. McCrimons was very compassionate and empathetic to the situation and commended me for showing my emotions as a 44 year old man. I knew from that moment on that I wanted him to be the pediatrician for ALL 3 of my babies. Thank you for being you, Doc! read more

horrible pediatricia! Being a first time mom, I can't believe I had to deal with him and his disrespect and disregard. I knew something was wrong with my son, and requested labs be done when he was months old, he told me no, and he won't go looking for a needle in a haystack. So, I continually called around, and called the office informing them that I'm making calls, and would picket outside his office to get my son what he needed. So, he finally put the orders in. Results came back, he stated he was fine even though so much results were out of range and highlighted in red. after calling me with results he dismissed my son from his practice. I finally got into another pediatrician who interpreted the results and was very worried, sent for retesting. my son now sees specialists. McCrimmons is NOT GOOD at all. He didn't want to take accountability for his bad calls/mistakes so he dismissed us from his practice instead of apologizing for not listening to a mother who knows her baby. I contacted the board and several others, I am not letting this go or slide. read more

Great doctor with a great sense of humor and heart. Is great at his job and cares about your baby too.

I am so happy that my OBGYN recommended Dr. McCrimmons. He is extremely to Earth and very personable. Dr. McCrimons listens to the parents' concerns and tries and offers the best treatment plan available. We always feel welcome both by him and his staff and they never rush through the motions. This doctor is an absolute gem it is very rare to find a doctor that actually listens and cares nowadays. Thank you! read more

See all

Very welcoming environment. Staff are great. Dr.McCrimons is excellent, he is very kind and informative.

Dr. McCrimons did a wonderful job on our son. Great office experience. We were obviously nervous about the procedure and Dr. McCrimons was very polite and made us feel at ease. He took wonderful care of our son and did a great job! Overall very happy with him, his care, and his quality of work. Would definitely recommend him to other parents. read more

My family and I LOVE Dr.McCrimons. Initially our Birth Center referred us to him for our baby boys circumcision. After our first visit we decided we wanted him to be our pediatrician for our babies. He's done both of our sons procedures and everything went smooth. BEST PEDS DOCTOR in the Sacramento area! read more

Wonderful spiritual doctor. He did an amazing job on my baby boy's circumcision. He did a follow up a week later via zoom. Wonderful experience in his office! read more

The cleanest circumcision I've ever seen as a NICU/Peds nurse. Dr. McCrimons definitely perfected the procedure. He was so energetic and fun to talk to. His staff were also very nice and welcoming. Oh, I'm also glad he didn't use plastibells. My son healed before his followup appointment. Definitely would recommend him. read more

Best doctor in the whole wide world! my both kids are blessed with his amazing touch! MY son is 12 now and daughter 8- enjoy coming to their doctor for checkups of sick days-always knowledgeable and personal! WE need more doctors like him in this world! read more

Our sons doctor only does one kind of circumcision (plasti-bell) and I did not want it. So we searched for a doctor and found Dr.McCrimons office. They called me back the next day and got my son in quick. Which I appreciated because he was just a day over 2wks. Dr.McCrimons was informative, funny and quick. Worth the drive! read more

Dr McCrimons is the Best pediatrician, and the office never turned us down for a same-day appointment in 18 years :)

We found Daniel McCrimmons through a referral from a friend and haven't looked back since. He's been my two kids' pediatrician since we moved here almost 4 years ago. Having been in the medical industry, i can tell you that Dr McCrimmona is among the best ever. He has an easy bedside manned and a staff as attentive as he is. He's concerned with the overall health and well-being (he actually is responsible for the addition of kale to our diets!) I trust him implicitly and he has always shot straight with us. He really does go the extra mile. Notable about this physician's practice is two waiting rooms...one for sick kids, and the other for non-sick kids... Thank you! I heartily recommend Daniel McCrimmons and staff to anyone. read more

Performed my grandson circumcision and it was perfect! Excellent personality and wonderful staff! Highly recommend

If he doesnt know how to help you he'll send you off to someone else to do it and then doesn't show concern on following up with his patients. If your child is beyond sick he makes it out to be ok and quite normal to let them suffer and not get the proper treatment that is needed to investigate whats going on with them. On the other hand gives out vaccines like they are life saving to a child who already has bad health. He tries to be quite charming with the kids so ill give him that but he needs to get up to date and validate what the parents address going on with their child. Laughing at everything is a way to brush off a parents concerns and creates distrust. Overall he was quite inviting when we first worked with him but now it just seems like it's a in and out process of well-baby check ups (shots) and nothing more. End up having a child with severe immunity issues that was having internal problems but he decided that the best care was to allow him to ride it out. Parents be your best advocates don't let a doctor make you feel invalid, you know your children best. read more

I am very happy we chose McCrimons for my sons circumcision. I was very nervous about the procedure not being done in the hospital but he was very nice and explained everything he was going to be doing. Once the procedure was done and I held my son he stopped crying almost immediately, he also healed very nicely there wasn't blood in his diaper or anything else. Dr McCrimons is a great doctor and I would choose him again to perform my sons circumcision. read more

Sad to read some of the experiences with low ratings on this thread. Dr. McCrimmons was my doctor, my sibling's doctor and now my two kids' doctor. I have had nothing but the best care from him and he has wonderful bedside manner. I was sad to hear he closed his downtown location but I am seriously considering just making the 40 minute drive to Carmichael when my kids have an appointment. I highly recommend him. read more

Very personable made us feel very comfortable. We took our 2 week son to get circumcised and he is very experienced & knowledgeable.

So happy I chose this doctor to perform my sons circumcision. Nothing but compassionate and kind. We were also almost a half hour late due to traffic and we didn't get our appointment cancelled which we were super grateful for. I didn't stay in the room but my husband did and he said Dr.McCrimons was very kind and explained what was going on. We are day 4 of the healing process and it looks great. Can't wait for our follow up appointment just to see Dr.McCrimons one more time to make sure our lil man is doing good. The receptionists were very kind as well. read more

Great doctor! Very chill and laid back. Has a great sense of humor. Professional and knowledgeable.

Both of my kids have had Dr. McCrimmons as their pediatrician. My oldest is 20 and my youngest is 10. Dr. McCrimmons has kept my youngest so healthy that we haven't been in over three years. :) Seriously, he's a very nice man, a knowledgeable physician, treats the kids with respect, and does seem to remember you, even if it's been forever. I also love the sick/well waiting rooms. The only reason he doesn't get five stars is that he is a single doctor with no others in his practice, and he is sometimes hard to reach, and the doctor covering him is also hard to reach. However, when my son had a major seizure that nearly resulted in his death and he was sent to Kaiser because it was closest, Dr. McCrimmons was instrumental in getting him out of there and into Mercy where he got the care he needed. I won't turn this into a Kaiser rant, but let's just say he may have died had he stayed there. Dr. McCrimmons is a good and caring doctor. read more

Avoid this soulless piece of ice. Repeat: Avoid. It's unfortunate that a family entanglement prevents me from calling a halt to taking any of the kids in my life to this dreadful professional. My very young child fell at school. McCrimmons' office location was enroute to the emergency ward, and having called his exchange, stopped to see if he could provide immediate care. His office does not answer calls during its two-hour lunch period. I arrived at the office at the exact end of the lunch-period identified by both his office voice-mail greeting, and his exchange. I went to the door. Locked. He didn't answer. The identity of the person who eventually did answer was not clear. He didn't bother to introduce himself. I quickly summarized. To no avail. McCrimmons then came to the door having overheard. His only point in coming to the door was to deny service. There I stood, child in my arms, and this ice-cube declined to provide any type of assistance or even extend a kindness to the child. He denied that his exchange provided me any information, and denied that his voice-mail greeting provided different office hours than he was now claiming (one-half hour longer than his voice-mail greeting and exchange). He even concocted an excuse why he couldn't see my child. "I have to go somewhere." He was lying. He, in his arrogance, clearly did not want the sanctity of his lunch hour disturbed, even if to do so meant lying about what his voice-mail greeting had said, what his exchange had said, and coming up with an absurd excuse that he had to "go somewhere" in the minutes remaining in his now-extended lunch hour. I have experienced him before. Previously, I noticed his aloof manner, his detached method of "interaction," and all of the other ingredients that add up to coldness. Having had this experience, my purpose now is to get the word out. Avoid! By the way, were it not for a peculiar family dynamic, I'd have reported this behavior to the medical board. read more

Recently switched to Dr. McCrimons from Kaiser, and picked him on recommendations from nurses at Sutter Memorial's postpartum unit (they would know the good peds, right?) In addition, my husband saw the Dr. when he was a kid and loved him! Our first visit was smooth and simple, and the Dr. took a lot of time to explain his philosophy and get to know me. I was really impressed by that. When my daughter was sick with croup, it was easy to get an appointment to see him (within an hour of my call) and it was equally easy to reach the on-call Dr. when this scared momma had a middle of the night concern. I would recommend Dr. McCrimons for his personal touch, sense of humor, and general love of treating children. read more

"Doctor" McCrimons should have his practice closed. He is dangerous. Our son was circumcised there and when we got home he had a diaper full of blood. Before we left his office he told us to call him if there were any problems. We called as soon as we got home to Folsom and instead of telling us to go to the ER, he instructed us to come back to his office. I shouldn't have listened. When we got to his office he spent two hours reapplying gauze, not applying pressure, while his elderly and incompetent "assistant" came in the room every 10 minutes to tell us everything was fine. When I would ask the doctor a question she would cut him off and answer and finally I had to tell her that I wasn't asking her. Even McCrimons was visibly irritated with her. After the two hour mark our son became unresponsive and pale due to blood loss. Instead of calling 911 he said he would drive us to UC Davis nearby. In the craziness of everything I just said okay. He had my wife and I follow him to UC Davis but when we got there he kept driving in and out of the parking lot. Finally he rolled down the window and told me he didn't actually know where the ER was. I told him he was useless and to get out of the way and quickly found my own way to the ER. Needless to say, Dr McCrimons and his staff are outdated, incapable of providing proper care, and downright dangerous. If you love your children don't take them here. read more

Dr. McCrimons is wonderful. His staff is friendly, there is never too long a wait for your set time. But more importantly, he loves kids. He will openly share the joy he finds in the kids he treats, and remind you that their innocence, their view of the world, is a treasure. read more

Dr. McCrimons really cares about his patients. He takes the time to listen rather than rushes through the appointment like most doctors. Highly recommend that you go see him. read more

I wish I was a kid again! Dr McCrimons is a wonderful doctor. He genuinely cares about his patients and wants nothing but the best for them. He takes a very common sense approach to caring for his patients. He doesn't automatically jump to writing a prescription for any little aliment. He likes to recommend natural remedies for many things. We couldn't be happier with the service and care that we receive from this office. Thank you!!! read more

My son is now 2 years old and he is still doing well after his procedure. It's a difficult thing for parents to decide but your son is in good hands with this doctor. I recommend him to all new parents of boys. read more

Dr. McCrimons has been our pediatrician since my son was born in 2009. We absolutely ADORE him and his beside manner. He is excellent with our son and always incredibly attentive to "Mom & Dads" needs as well while taking care of our boy. All the kids are "chief" and he has the best suckers around. My son looks forward to his visits with Dr. McCrimons. (as do we). We trust this physician to always put our son's best interest first. He is what all doctors should aspire to be: credible, genuine, knowledgeable and personable. We hope Dr. M will continue to practice throughout our son's childhood. I can't imagine taking him to any other doctor. read more

Dr McCrimson was friendly and walked us through the procedure for my sons circumcision. Office staff was friendly and service was quick. Highly recommend for anyone looking for circumcisions for their child. My son healed in less than a week they even send you home with a care kit. read more

I instantly liked Dr. McCrimons when I brought my son in for a physical. He is so likable and knowledgeable and I just enjoyed talking with him. He definitely has a way with children and made us feel like we were talking to a member of our family. We will definitely keep Dr. McCrimons as our son's pediatrician for as long as possible! read more

Dr. McCrimons performed the circumcision on my son and I was glad I chose him as my son's Dr. He was very personable, and kept me informed of what he was doing during the procedure. He made me feel comfortable and treated my son with care. The only reason I gave four stars is because of how long I waited past my scheduled appointment time to be seen. read more

5/5 stars, I had my two week old circumcised and doctor McCrimons was great, even let me schedule the follow up appointment after hours and he went out of his way to make it. read more

I got a c circumcision for my son over five years ago and I still remember this doctor was so amazing, no I recommend all my friends to him

Dr. Daniel McCrimons is the best pediatrician our family has ever had. We met him in 1994 and he took care of all of our children until they became adults. Not only is he a wonderful and experienced pediatrician, he is a mentor to our children and considered a part of our family. We highly respect and recommend him and his staff. When our daughter was in a near fatal car accident in 2006, Dr. McCrimons and his staff went above and beyond to ensure she had the best care. He genuinely cares for his patients and their families. He is affiliated with Mercy General Hospital not UC Davis so I find Thomas R.'s post completely false. We are grateful to God to have had him care for our "chiefs". read more

I found Dr McCrimmons through Yelp. Based on the reviews we decided to go to him for circumcision. I have to say this guy is an awesome character. I bet kids love him. He was very easy going, put us at ease, and comfortable to talk to. The circumcision went well and is healing perfectly. I would definitely recommend him for any pediatric services. read more

Dr. McCrimons is amazing! He did our sons circumcision and did a fantastic job. it's only the second day and I can already tell it's healing well. He took time to answer our questions and explained the procedure every step of the way. On top of being excellent and precise with the circumcision, his assistant gave us formula "samples" ( they are full size containers that came with an insulated bag and re-freezable ice pack. we supplement when needed) coupons and a few other helpful things! You can tell they really care about patients and parents! He takes pride in his work and it shows! read more

Best pediatrician in Sacramento. The 'chief' has been a mentor to me since I was a baby and am so grateful I was given the opportunity to share space and time on earth with him. I always feel welcomed in his presence and appreciate that he tries to fully understand what is going on before just writing a script. Moreover, he has the biggest heart of anyone I know. I am so excited that he was able to release his book recently and cannot wait to dive into it! read more

I have been a "chief" aka patient of Dr McCrimons since I was a child and now my son has become one of his "chiefs" for the last 10 years. His care goes far beyond" just another number". You become family here he is a amazing Doctor and one heck of a quality human being with insight and inspiration far beyond measure to share with you. We love Dr McCrimons. He has an amazing staff they're very professional and caring. His practice is nice and clean I love that he has 1 side for healthy visits and 1 side for sick patience. I highly recommend Dr McCrimons if your looking for one of the best pediatricians in the world. read more
