Everyone is so kind, warm, attentive, and caring every single time we come in.

We are so grateful to have a pediatrician's office where we feel supported, respected, and truly cared for. I cannot recommend Newington Pediatrics enough!

The facility is very clean and everyone was very kind and helpful, especially to my child. I was very impressed with the follow up - they actually call you with test results! You can also access the results easily on the app. My child's initial test was inconclusive and the doctor worked with me on deciding next steps. I was really impressed with their thoughtful problem solving - my child was definitely not just a number to get in and out, they really cared about making her feel better. We had returned home by the time we realized she needed meds and they were able to call in a prescription to our home pharmacy. She is now on the mend - and we are so grateful to the PM Pediatrics team in Manchester! A tip - we also have a PM Pediatrics in our home area and the doctor in CT was able to see my child's previous visit records, which was very helpful. I highly recommend making PM Pediatrics your go-to urgent care if you are lucky enough to have one near where you live.

However, the first "nurse" or "assistant" was not friendly, not patient, or helpful. I had to take my kids to the restroom during her checkup she huffed and rolled her eyes like it was an inconvenience. Next, I'm not even going to say Doctor because most likely she was an APRN. Didn't solve my problem, help my problem, listen/hear what I said about the health concerns. Nor did she show any empathy or sympathy. I was excited to come here because they're not affiliated with any big name places, but just your average turn em and burn em situation. Very disappointing, I'll take the extra 10 minutes drive to Farmington for a much better experience.

After bringing our child here for months we are not impressed. We have asked multiple doctors here…read moreabout many first time parent things, and none of them give solid usable information. I'm not sure that these doctors are much better than pharmacists and nurses who only know what medications to prescribe and how to do quick check-ups. Dr. Ward: after telling him that our baby hated tummy time and cried through it all the time, he said "oh that's normal" instead of suggesting that we offer things for the baby to look at during tummy time so that she enjoys it. FOR 3 MONTHS our baby hated tummy time and was miserable, then we saw a developmental therapist who told us how to make it fun for her, and voila! much better! WHY DID WE AND OUR BABY HAVE TO SUFFER THROUGH 3 MONTHS OF THAT because he was too lazy to mention anything. And why would we even think to research it online if our peditrician said it's fine how we're doing it? Dr. Chassie: Seems ok but easily gets defensive if I ask detailed information about things that a normal first time parent would ask. OK SORRY FOR ASKING QUESTIONS...BUT WHAT ARE YOU BEING PAID FOR DR? She sometimes didn't want to discuss issues with the baby unless we had video evidence of the issue...just ridiculous. Dr. Knox: was especially rude any time we wanted to discuss something that he did not feel like discussing about our child, and he would refuse testing/referrals/discussion/and any other basic requests that parents make of pediatricians. He would rather argue for 20 minutes about something we would ask than write a stupid referral or offer any helpful advice...what a joke. Guess what, we are not seeing a pediatrician to be treated like that, so we will likely go somewhere else. All 3 of these doctors don't seem to think that sleep is of any importance to babies, and when we would ask them MULTIPLE TIMES about it, and express that we are having major problems and that the baby BARELY sleeps, they ALL brushed off the subject. Meanwhile, developmental, lactation, physical, and other therapists all have agreed that sleep is EXTREMELY important for babies and their development and have given us more helpful info on the subject. But for some mysterious reason, the doctors at this location feel that sleep and other basics are uninteresting topics and offer no information about sleep that first time parents would need to know. Having a child's basic human needs be completely overlooked by these doctors is extremely negligent and is not what we are paying for. They literally would rather talk for 10 minutes about how the baby is fine and everything is normal even though she's not sleeping for more than 6 hours a day. And yet it would only take 2 MINUTES for them to offer some real info and advice on where else to do research if they don't feel like discussing it. And meanwhile, everyone else with a degree says that babies need 14-17 hours of sleep per day.....hmmm interesting...so WHY are these doctors incapable of offering help in this subject? We often had to go 3 times to see each doctor and ask the same question of each one just to get only partially helpful information from them (but nobody helped about sleep), therefore we will find a different pediatrician. It's the total opposite of a desired experience and I do not recommend that any first time parents go here. Questions that you ask will be brushed off in the interest of telling you that everything is fine with your child. Nobody feels like taking the time to go over anything with you and gets defensive just because you ask detailed questions, which is stupid. The least they could do is tell you what to search for online or who else to see (types of therapists etc), but 90% of the time they don't feel like doing that and you will be left completely in the dark. It's exhausting going here and being told that we should just let our baby make it's own rules and not even try to step up as parents by providing normal routines to assist with our child's development. And absolutely nevermind if you want someone to go above and beyond and help you with something that you DIDN'T notice yourself...oh no...you better notice EVERYTHING on your own about your baby because these doctors are not perceptive or interested enough to go above and beyond. We received way more help from social and community networks than from these doctors in all areas. They only did wellness checks the first two appointments and then never wanted to see the baby except for vaccines after that. And when we made followup appointments for concerns, we were always told that it should be a focused appointment on just the areas that we are concerned with and that there wasn't enough time to discuss things in length. Cool, thanks for the help, but like I said at least offer a clue as to what to do, a referral, anything actually helpful besides telling us everything is fine and to shut up.

I find them to be so incredibly rude, especially one whom I will not name specifically.They tend to be very impersonal and dismissive, and super jaded to boot. One visit, I became faint while watching my daughter get a shot. I grew dizzy and began to get major tunnel vision. I was leaning against the hallway wall so scared that I was about to pass out and this nurse said in a rather snippy tone, "You cannot stand here!" After frantically attempting to explain that I was feeling weak and needed to sit down she was so hesitant to help me out-- I, a sick woman, in a dr's office! Later, I received a call fasking if everything was ok. I simply replied 'yes' not mentioning my distaste of the entire incident. Sad to say, in recent visits the nurses' demeanors have not really improved. I stick with it only for Dr Ward. As everyone says, he's great at what he does, just the right man for the job. For that, I am grateful.

She reframed so much of what the hospital told me generically and tailored it to me and our son based on how and what she saw. and she was spot on! he was happier, less frustrated and trusted me to read his cues correctly and get what he needed. it was an instant fix, I can't get enough of her!!
