We have a three year old toddler who's seen her for multiple issues throughout the year, and a current four month old daughter who has seen Dr. D since birth. Despite, being a second time mom, I was taken aback how similar but also different babies were. I had some feeding issues with my daughter especially at the beginning, which I had never even imagined with my first. I really loved the fact that Dr. D was all about the well-being of my baby, but also me as a mother. Two areas of improvement I feel they could make is with their receptionist. If they could be more proactive about booking the next appointment upon parents walking out the door, this would be really helpful. Sometimes we forget about our next appointment, and then when we call back it is difficult to book as slots get filled up fast. Another area that I would really appreciate would be the time management. The wait time I've had averaged about 30-45 minutes after my scheduled time. And sometimes with a fussy baby or a cranky toddler, I run out of resources for entertainment!

Dr. Stern truly cares about our children, has been an major advocate for them, and has gone above and beyond for us multiple times. She has called me on many late nights and weekends to check on our children and has been super responsive anytime we've called with a concern. She has a ton of connections to other doctors and has called in favors with specialists to get us in day of. I can't say enough good things about her! I think we've seen every doctor in the office at some point and have had great experiences with every one of them. Dr. Hardart was on call and went completely out of her way to take care of us on a holiday after she had already left the office. I also love that this office has very extensive hours and that you don't wait in the waiting room for long, if at all. The office staff is friendly and the nurses are very sweet as well. I would 100% recommend Dr. Stern and this office!

My older daughter had some bad reactions to vaccinations and he was so willing to work with us on a delayed schedule for my 6 month old because it made me feel more comfortable.

At 9:01 we get a call saying that the front desk check reps would not check her in as she is a minor. I immediately came in around 9:10 checked both of my girls. I asked them why they couldn't check my daughter in and she said is urgent care protocol she is a minor. Which is all BS. We lost our place in line now we have been pushed 3 in line.

The staff is friendly, our appointment was on time and we got a report of our visit when we checked out. Dr. Caitlin is our new Pediatrician and we absolutely LOVE her! She is extremely knowledgeable and addresses all of our questions/concerns with a sensitivity that puts you at ease. She's always informing us of the vaccine schedule and what the next steps are for a growing baby. She spends her time w/ us never making us feel rushed or annoyed for asking questions. I think what sets her apart from other pediatricians is her care for the parents too, asking us how we were adjusting to another baby in the family & how the sibling is adjusting as well. She is definitely one of the better pediatricians that I've been to, and I'd recommend her to anyone in the area looking for a pediatrician.
