Had to update because we We LOVE Dr. Ariza and Elizabeth and the entire staff so much. We came here…read morewhen our daughter was one after a horrific experience at CP & A in Capitol Hill. Best decision ever. We now have two kids in Dr. Ariza's care and have been with them for 2 years. The office is more of a boutique than a sad or scary doctor's office. Decorated perfect for kids and very inviting. We have never had to wait long and both the ladies at the front desk and the Nurse Kadera (so sorry if I misspelled her name!) are great. Kadera is friendly, gentle and was able to draw blood from my 2 year old with no issues! She's seriously the best. She calls the kids friends and that in itself is such a gift. Dr Ariza is literally an angel. Very supportive of me as a mom and my kids adore her - enough that we play "Dr Ariza" every day. EVERY.DAY. She is a dream come true pediatrician and we feel so lucky to have her. She's brilliant, kind, helpful and supportive. And obsessed with her cool shoes. We have had to utilize the after hour calls a few times and she personally immediately calls back. If you have kids look no further - this is the best office in DC.

We really enjoy every visit with this amazing doctor. She speaks to us about all our issues and…read moreconcerns and more, gives us recommendations in a very polite, considerate manner. When we had concerns she explained them to us so we would not worry, she also gives us 360 view prospective from all the sides and medical/scientific point of view in non judgmental manner. She is a very respectful doctor and understands the worries of young parents. She is the nicest doctor I've been to and our baby loves her and her playful and loving manner during every visit. We feel that we visiting "medical mom" who cares about your child and it gives us piece of mind. I wish I would have such a doctor when I was growing up. As a first time mom, I feel much better after our visits. Thank you - Dr. Razi!

It really is as good of a primary health practice as you can get without having your own private…read moredoctor. Both of our daughters have been patients here from birth. They have a primary care physician assigned - Dr. Sexter - but they have at some point or another been seen by all of their physicians. Every one of them are great: kind, compassionate, attentive, and responsive. You will feel heard and they will address your concerns. Their knowledge and expertise is extraordinary. The office - staff and doctors - are also super responsive. If you have a pressing question, someone will get back to you that day. If it's an after hours emergency, there is always a doctor on call and they will respond within 30 minutes. The doctors hold daily office hours but it can be tricky to get a hold of them if they're experiencing a volume of calls. An extra perk I like is that they keep appointments available daily for those common but unplanned for illnesses, and they have a separate waiting room for sick vs not sick. It just runs so well you wonder why more doctors' offices don't do the same. Now of course, the one downside is they are out of network. It's not cheap. I think it's worth it if you can, but financially it can hurt if your kids have a lot of illnesses or shots in a limited period of time. They do at least submit the insurance forms for you, and that helps some. I wholeheartedly recommend this practice and all the doctors in it, and have a deep appreciation for how Dr. Sexter and Nurse Jennifer have taken care of our girls.

So impressed once again with Dr Long after the birth of my second son. This review is so long…read moreoverdue ! She has been my 2 year olds doctor for the past 2 years and we are continually impressed. The office is fantastic , clean , inviting , separate infant space. The front desk staff always try to accommodate you same day and we've never had an issue getting an appointment. Dr Long is caring , warm , and so knowledgeable. She works with us to troubleshoot issues when/if they come up and is readily available. Thank you Spring Valley Peds and Dr Long for the fabulous care of our boys!!! K&M

Dr. Corder has been my daughters' pediatrician since birth. Her bedside manner is always attentive,…read morepatient, and collaborative! She does not force her opinion on you but instead listens and works with you on the best treatment for your LO. As my girls got older, she included them in on the discussions of their well being listening to them for what they said and most importantly what they didn't say. I cannot say enough about how much she was instrumental in my evolution from brand new, terrified mom to the confident mom I am today. She is a rare find and I am blessed to have her as a part of my family's extended village.

Let me just say she's truly the best pediatrician in the entire DMV area, and honestly, probably…read moreone of the best in the whole country. She genuinely cares about her patients and always goes above and beyond to make sure they get the care and services they need. She was my husband's pediatrician when he was a baby, and now he's 33 and still goes to her whenever something's wrong! She's now the pediatrician for all of our kids, and we absolutely love her. We're so grateful for everything she does. Her office is always clean, welcoming, and comfortable, and her staff are always kind, respectful, and professional.

The nurses are supercilious. They breeze in and out to check a box. The doctors are poorly trained. They forgot to schedule shots, and if, G-d forbid, your baby has a real issue, the sum total of their expertise is basically "go to the ER."

One star because the doctors at this practice are excellent. But their after-business hours service…read moreis unacceptable. We have attempted to use the service on three separate occasions and have been met with repeated failures and a lack of timely, appropriate care. In all three cases, we were also told there was no record of our doctor, Dr. Melissa Kelley--who we have seen multiple times and who is very much part of the Foggy Bottom practice. This is deeply concerning and suggests disorganization or lack of integration between their records and after-hours service. Frankly, this level of care is unacceptable. Pediatric care does not stop at 5 p.m. or take weekends off. Children often have urgent needs outside of regular business hours, and families should be able to rely on timely support from their medical provider--whether from an on-call doctor or nurse with access to medical records and treatment history. My extended family--many of whom have raised children and grandchildren across a wide range of practices--agree that they have never experienced or heard of such a lack of after-hours support from a pediatric provider.

That's where it ends and we are finally being…read moredriven away from doctors we love because of staff that are beyond rude and horrific to deal with. We've seen it all - missed vaccines like others have said, I've been hung up on by the office staff etc. Forget about making a timely appointment, talking to anyone or getting a sick appointment. I genuinely don't know how this practice stays in business because the level of responsiveness/client service is beyond abysmal. They treat parents like nuisances. Save yourself the aggravation and avoid this practice at all costs.

I would not recommend this pediatric practice…read more Very difficult to deal with. They have a zero tolerance late policy. I brought my son in for a sick visit. I ended up being twelve minutes late because i had both kids and couldn't get the baby out of a tight spot so had to switch parking spaces. The front desk made me wait almost thirty minutes to tell me that I was being denied a visit because i was late. When I called to complain the management basically stood behind that and said we reserve the right to deny even if you are one minute late. But no problem having you the parent wait. Cool cool. Ive never seen the same provider twice there very much a factory. We are at children's medical associates so far so good. I am willing to make the drive. Also considered going back to our DC pediatrician west end peds which is pretty good. The admin/medical records side of this practice also terrible. Playing phone tag with them to pay them to send the medical records. The cost varies by the number of pages of the record. Cool cool cool. I made the right decision switching!!!

We had the best experience! We met with Karen Johnson, MSN, CPNP. She was absolutely amazing…read more She did a thorough assessment and provided clear instructions on what to do. Our situation required a follow up the day after. Although she wasn't working the next day, she made sure another physician took a look at my daughter so that the following day they'd have a baseline to assess progress. She also went out of her way to call us and follow up a few days later just to make sure things were moving in the right direction. I highly recommend Karen and trust her with our care. She was a perfect example of the type of care and attention to detail you want from your medical provider.

We went to Dr…read more Evans there, who we love, and she's no longer at the practice so I feel comfortable writing this review for the overall practice. Operations: Start counting the hours of your time that this practice will waste. 98% of the time when you call them, there is an automated message that just says "please call back later" and hangs up on you without being able to leave a message. If you choose any of the menu options where you can leave a message (e.g., billing department), the message becomes "this mailbox is not monitored, please call the main office number". I feel like I'm being punked. They also charge you $25 for calling the on-call service with more urgent questions. When we finally did switch to another practice, they only sent over half my son's records and I had to call back a thousand times through their ridiculous system once again. Medical care: At our son's 1-year appointment, we made our next appointment at the front desk which they made for when he was 18 months. We did not question this. When we came back at 18 months, we were chided by the medical staff for "missing his 15 month appointment and so he's behind on his vaccines, which is very dangerous in this time period of increased respiratory illnesses". We also asked at every visit if we could receive a COVID vaccine for him, and were told we'd be put on a wait list and it would be available by the next visit, but it never was. AVOID AT ALL COSTS.
