My daughter is now 4 years old, and we've been patients at Happy & Healthy Pediatrics since she was…read morejust 4 days old. We have been consistently thrilled with the care she receives. We're almost always seen right at our scheduled appointment time (or even early). Dr. Rubin has been our daughter's primary pediatrician from the very beginning, and her warmth, thoroughness, and genuine kindness make every visit feel reassuring and personal. She takes the time to answer all of our questions (no matter how small) and always follows up personally after any concern.

I just had my second or third negative experience with Village Peds office staff. The women, with…read morethe exception of one lovely, older lady are downright rude. Their behavior is the type of thing that makes me wonder if I am on candid camera. Its truly that absurd. The doctors there ARE dedicated professionals so I wonder why they allow for that. I am starting to question if they are complicit in that toxic environment because I would never tolerate that in my place of business. After this, I am looking for a new pediatric practice. Any suggestions?

The moron that pierced her ears did it so uneven that now at 1 year old only has one ear pierced because we had to removed it. The blood that was drawn was not enough and results were inconclusive. The doctor praised herself as she spoke to her dad and I "you should be happy that I went through her records and know her medical history" but yet she was calling my daughter my name. We agreed to give it one more chance. Wrong choice. Come the 1 year checkup...they canceled my appointment because I was 7 minutes late. 7! I live in queens, not on the island...they're ridiculously inconsiderate! I went in anyways to get her medical records because I had it...this was two weeks ago and have yet to receive records.

We came to Dr. Reischer based on a friend's recommendation. I think Kristin L. created an awesome…read morereview and was spot on with both her pros and cons. Dr. Reischer has been our pediatrician since our son was born a couple of months ago. I think Kristin L. put it best as he's not "overly jovial, but not a curmudegon" doctor either. He may not be everyone's cup of tea but think he's really great. He is really professional and really cares about his patients. Our kid had his first shots last week and Dr. Reischer explained each one of the vaccines he was getting, showed us the bottles, and their expiration dates. My wife and I really appreciated that. He was also very fast with all three shots! The wait times can be long as we kind of experienced last week but when you're popular, you're popular. Receptionist (Maria) is great too!

I've been taking my baby to Dr. Reischer since my baby was born. Dr. Reischer has an amazing…read morebreadth of experience and great bedside manners. He's always patient and, except for rare busy stretches, always available other than Sabbath. Even in off hours, he provides his pager number for emergencies. Note that he is pretty old school, so some of his methods may not be what you read about in the latest baby books. But this is a doctor who has probably treated a whole public school's worth of children, so while you may not agree and may sometimes deviate from what he recommends, you know you are getting at least solid advice. He's always wears a baseball cap! His receptionists are super friendly and I always have had good experiences. Appointments are easy to make and wait times tend not to be too long. My one wish is that he would (1) hire a nurse to do the needles as my baby now associates him with needles and cries whenever he comes in and (2) he'd have a separate aware for sick kids and kids going in for wellness checks. I also wish the facilities can be nicer, but hey, it's Forest Hills. One tip is that if he is not available for whatever reason and you have urgent needs, I would supplement with the Forest Hills Urgent Care center that is nearby. Dr. Reischer is a sole practitioner so this will happen from time to time.

So many doctors, pediatricians included, don't seem to care anymore. They see as many patients as…read morepossible and thats it. Dr. Goldstein is NOT one of those doctors. Let's start with his staff. His nurse/receptionist is such a sweetheart. She treats my daughter (and every other kid I've seen her with) as though they're family. I always feel like I'm talking to an aunt when I see her. She's the type of person you want to hug before you leave the office. Dr. Goldstein is also amazing. He's so caring! Unlike my previous pediatrician, he's very gentle. He takes his time with us every time we come in. He addresses every concern and question. We never feel like he's just seeing us and running out. You have no idea how awesome that is when you have your first kid and feel like you're a bit in the dark. Two of my favorite things about this office is 1) We never have to wait for more than 10 minutes. They're wonderful about scheduling appointments so there's never a bunch of impatient kids and parents in the waiting room. They have a great respect for your time which a lot of doctors do not. 2) They're insanely patient. Again, you have no idea how comforting it is to have a patient, concerned doctor/nurse when you have your first kid. They explain every vaccination and every measurement. It's wonderful.

I was referred to him by a friend - so to say he met my expectations is a understatement. His staff are warm and welcoming. They provide with formula if needed- they book your appointments in advance. My daughter Summer is in the best care here - I love the waiting rooms being separated for children who are sick and who aren't. I could go on and on but this experience comes from 2 visits that were fast , thorough and informative!

While some may see this as an issue, I actually really like this as it keeps the office moving and we rarely have to wait to see him. My wife and I come prepared to ask questions and he takes the time to answer each one no matter how ridiculous the first time parent question is. He takes the time to explain all the shots our child is getting and when we call him he always gets back to us. I am not really sure you could ask for a more perfect streamlined doctor. His staff is awesome as well and make everything so easy. I would highly recommend him to anyone.

So, I'm actually legitimately concerned based on my experience with this office. First of all, I…read morecalled (and called back) five different times (each time being told that my daughter would be accepted as a patient and I would be called back) before anyone got back to me. Once I was left on hold for 10 minutes and no one ever came back. This all had gone on for over two weeks. On my 4th call, the secretary said "what's the number where I can call you back" and I said to her, in a very nice and calm tone: "I just want to let you know, this is the fourth time I've called this office, and no one has yet given me a call back." There was a long silence, and then she said "what's the number where I can call you back?" I said, "but I just need to know that you will actually call me back." She said "what's the number where I can call you back." Like a pissed off robot--no apologies, no concern for the fact I had been chasing this office down for coming on three weeks. So I gave her the number and said please call me back. And...she didn't. I believe this was Dana. Three days later I call the office again. Now I'm upset. I explained what had happened so far. I said I wanted to speak to the office manager, sandy, who wasn't in. The secretary I was speaking to asked if she could help--this was Christina. She was really nice and apologetic and gave me an appointment the same day (she did call back.) So our appointment is supposed to be today. Our baby was sick. Yesterday I get a voicemail saying Dr. Martocci has Covid, and is cancelling all patients today and rescheduling for next week. Alright, nothing you can do about that. But then I get a call this morning, again from Dana, asking me if I can come in this morning. I said "I thought the doctor had Covid, isn't that why our appointment was cancelled?" Long silence. I'm put on hold. She comes back and says "the doctor is feeling better. He's leaving early today. He's still seeing patients in the morning." I said "how can he be seeing patients if he has Covid?" She said, "if you're more comfortable, you can reschedule for next week." Umm, what? I said "I don't understand, is the doctor contagious?" She said "no." Long pause. I said I would call back. Five minutes later, after talking to my partner, I'm immediately put on hold and no one comes back. I call again, it says the office is closed. I call a third time, it says the office is closed. Now I'm wondering if they're purposely not answering MY calls. My partner calls from his cell phone, Dana picks up in one ring. I am honestly so infuriated and upset I am in tears. Hoping to finally speak to the manager to explain what my experience has been. I just hope someone cares because this is not okay. This might be the best pediatrician in the world, but who can deal with being treated this way? Now it's been over a month of this, and my daughter still hasn't been seen for her four month visit. Also, anyone who knows me knows I am a really calm and polite person, very gentle and patient. I can't understand why I'm being treated this way, or if this is standard for parents at this office.

Dr. Gregory Martocci has been my son's pediatrician since he was 3 years old. I was taking him to a…read moremore prestigious pediatric group but I finally got fed up with the practice telling me how to take of my son. Dr. Martocci always gives his advice but allows parents to decide how to take care of their children. For example he tells me what shots are due but allows me to decide what shots will be given or I can decide not to get shots at all. My son would always get a high fever whenever he received a shot. I told Dr. Martocci my concern about a booster for the MMR. He suggested to have a titers test done to check and see if my son had enough of the MMR antibodies. My son indeed had enough antibodies and so he never needs to have another MMR shot again! Dr. Martocci supports our family and appreciates that we try to eat organic as much as possible. He never forces his opinion on us. He provides treatment options and allows us to decide how to treat our children. I highly recommend this practice to anyone with children.
