I was on a hunt for a new pediatrician and after asking around my friend recommended Dr. Rivera and…read morelet me tell you I am so happy they did! I loved my entire experience! The office set up is super cute and bright my kids enjoyed it they were also playing Cocomelon on the tv which my toddler LOVED and I appreciated as well! Judy greeted us in a very friendly and welcoming manner. She was also super sweet and friendly over the phone when I called to schedule our appointment. She was so patient with my highly active one year old and played with her as I shuffled all my things along with a newborn. She was such a big help and I'll never forget that. I felt relieved not feeling judged or rushed while I was there and this was all before even meeting the doctor! Dr Rivera is amazing as well. My babies responded to him so well. He is very knowledgeable and sweet, friendly, not intimidating and judgy which is everything I was looking for in a new pediatrician! In addition to medical services they have access to a lot of useful resources that parents of young children could use. It feels like family every visit and I'm forever grateful for them being my babies' medical provider! If I could give them more stars I would because 5 doesn't seem enough!

Extremely disappointed in how this practice has changed over the years…read more We have been patients of this practice since my oldest daughter was born. She is now four, and my younger son has also been a patient since birth. We stayed with this practice for years because we genuinely believed in what Dr. Rivera said he wanted his practice to be: quality over quantity and a place where patients and families mattered. Unfortunately, our experience over the years has become completely different. There have been ongoing issues with the office staff being rude and dismissive toward me as a parent. One of the issues that initially caused frustration was that the office repeatedly got my son's gender incorrect. When I corrected the information, instead of simply acknowledging and correcting the mistake, I was met with an attitude from the staff. Mistakes happen, but the way a parent is treated when bringing a mistake to the office's attention matters. We have also had ongoing difficulties with insurance issues and scheduling. Rather than feeling like the office is trying to help families navigate these things, we have repeatedly felt like we were an inconvenience. The situation that ultimately resulted in our children being dismissed from the practice was especially frustrating. I completed all of the required paperwork for my daughter's appointment. Instead of someone from the office calling or emailing me to explain that there was an issue with her primary care provider information and giving me an opportunity to correct it, I received a random text message stating that they could not see her because the information was incorrect. I responded and explained that this could have easily been resolved if someone had simply contacted me and asked me to correct the information. I received no response. The following day, my husband called the office and was told that because of my "attitude," they no longer wanted to see either of our children. Think about that for a moment. My daughter had been a patient there since she was a newborn and is now four years old. My son has been a patient since birth and is now almost two. After years of bringing our children to this practice, both children were dismissed because the office did not like how I addressed a problem that could have been resolved with a simple phone call or email. What is even more disappointing is that we previously had respect for Dr. Rivera and his vision for the practice. He often spoke about wanting to be different and prioritizing quality over quantity. Unfortunately, our experience has been that the quality of the overall patient experience has gone significantly downhill as the years have gone on. When patients repeatedly raise concerns about the office staff, it is incredibly disappointing when those concerns do not seem to be taken seriously. Now, even obtaining our children's medical records has become unnecessarily difficult. I requested the complete records for both of my children. Rather than providing a complete electronic copy of each child's records, I was told that I could individually download years' worth of documents from the patient portal myself. For a family that has been patients for four years, that can mean an enormous number of individual documents to download. The biggest issue for me is not that mistakes happen. It is the lack of communication, professionalism, and willingness to work with parents to resolve problems. We trusted this practice with our children for years. It is extremely disappointing to go from feeling like valued patients to feeling like our family is simply unwanted because we spoke up about problems we were experiencing. I would strongly encourage parents considering this practice to pay attention not only to the doctors, but also to how the office staff communicates with and treats families. The experience we had is very different from the practice we originally chose years ago.

This office is wonderful from top to bottom. The front staff, the assistants and the doctors are so…read morecaring and great with kids. You can totally tell that everyone at this office loves their jobs, loves children and wants to give the best care to each child. We have seen all the doctors here and they all rock but Dr Tappen is on another level. He is a true rockstar and is a real life Patch Adams. Also, he is so confident, thorough and doesn't miss anything. He runs right on time with literally zero wait time AND gives you all his attention during your visit with him (not sure how he does that!!) After our appt today my 5 year old said "that is the nicest man I have ever met, I love coming here and am going to become a doctor like him." What more can you ask for?! Check him and this office out if you need a pediatrician. You will not regret it!

IF YOU VALUE YOUR TIME DONT I REPEAT DONT GO TO THIS CLINIC TAKE YOUR BUSINESS SOMEWHERE ELSE…read more I don't know what happened to this place, we've gone here I believed 4 times since we transferred the care of my son from CA to FL and those 4 times our only complain is the check in process. Today 3/30 we have a routine wellness check up for my 12 month old son. I checked in over the phone as usual and for some reason this time it was different I was asked hella questions over the phone which last time I was given same questionnaire but was on a paper. They met us in the lobby 11:17 AM, I was thinking great early today because our appointment was 11:30 am. We went to the room the nurse this time was different, she's not the usual nurse that's helping us. So this nurse I think she's new (black with long hair braided) I have never seen her before, I didn't get her name since she didn't introduce herself took our son's weight and height and then left. 10, 20, 30 minutes went by and we're still waiting for the doctor, mind you our appointment is at 11:30 am. At 11:57 am we decided to just leave the office because it's like we're waiting for nothing, opened the door and saw Dr. Christopher Tappan sitting on his computer, told him we've been waiting for him to see my son. His answer " I didn't even know you're here", with a smirk, no sorry, nothing. Wow this is very unprofessional we literally waited for nothing, they wasted our time! Basically the nurse that checked us in didn't even communicate to Dr.Tappan that we're in room 8 waiting. This is the worst of all the worst experience here. We are never coming back to this place. They don't value their customers' time. All they care is their time and the money they'll get. Don't even try to bill us for this appointment I'm telling you I'm going to call my insurance for this.

Thank you to Dr. Kanarek at Nadal Pediatrics for saving my child…read more My review is 3 months late, it has been a BAD summer. On June 19, I went to Nadal Pediatrics, quite urgently. My daughter had a (butterfly rash, purple hued dusky knees, red knuckles and had lost use of her hands) group of weird symptoms. She had a rash and I had already scheduled a future appointment, but the achy hands before the 18th she had been icing herself, this is the date she could no longer close/fist her hands. My mom thought was, "she hurt her wrist/hands in gymnastics." Not even thinking any of this could be related. To make a very long, sad, hard story shorter, we came in to see Dr. Kanarek on the morning of the 19th of June. He literally took one look at my 10-year old beautiful baby girl and says she needs a specialist immediately. "I see Rheumatoid Arthritis, Lupus or Juvenile Dermatomyositis." I start to shake and react like a parent with fear. We left the office in about 45 minutes, Dr. Kanarek had already reached out to Specialists at All Childrens Hospital and was confirming a morning appointment on the 20th. We were admitted immediately after a chat with the specialist. No overnight clothing or preparation, we spent 3 nights at the hospital. Our daughter had Juvenile Dermatomyositis, she is part of a 3 in 1 million group of patients. Without this keen observation on the part of Dr. Kanarek, I fear we would have lost my child. Diagnosis average time is 17 to 18 months and by then most children suffer heart and lung damage or suffer paralysis of joints or muscles. She has this and it is an Auto-Immune Disease for life, but she is alive and has no permanent muscle damage. Thank you again to Dr. Kanarek at Nadal Pediatrics for saving my child and getting us on the road to recovery. From the depths of our souls in appreciation and awe, Elena and Danny Tewmey

Dr. Hosemann is caring, professional and communicative. She is patient even with my one "wild" child. I am always able to get a sick appointment the same day, usually with Dr. Hosemann, although a few times we've seen other docs who are just as good. She knows the community, so when you need a referral to a specialist, she can point you in the right direction. As for the office itself, it always seems to run on time (I'm not sure how they do that, because it seems like they spend the right amount of time listening and assessing). The office is clean, well run. The nursing staff are great and make even the shots okay--my children claim the shots are painless. The administrative staff is awesome and most of the them seem to be there long-term.
