My husband's coworker recommended this place and I called to set up a free prenatal visit to meet the newborn team and see if it would be a good fit. The moment I called to set up this appointment I knew we would be in good hands. The receptionist was so unbelievably sweet! Great first impression! We met with Mindy, the lactation consultant, and Janice Martin, MD. We left the visit knowing this would be the place! Fast forward and now our little girl is 2 months old and I am still singing praises for Pediatric Care Specialist. Mindy was such a vital support for my family during the tough few weeks of attempting to breast feed. She even gave me her home phone number over the Christmas holiday-- who does that? So thankful for her help! We ended up switching to see one of their nurse practitioners, Megan McGown, because she saw us during our first visit and we fell in love! She is so encouraging, gentle, and patient! She answers all our questions-- and we have a lot as new parents! Such a relief to find a place that we feel confident taking our little one to for the next 18 years!

And he looked at me and said, yes, I'm his provider. He never stops caring and it might sound silly but a provider remembering the size of MY kids mole when he sees 30-40 pts a day means the world to me! I have referred half of KC to him and will continue! Thank you Dr. Carlos for ALWAYS putting my kids health first!

At another point he said that no vaccine would ever hurt my child. As someone who was vaccine injured and deals with the repercussions of that injury every day, this was very jarring to hear. He has not once provided informed consent to us the entire time we have been at this practice since my son was born. It is not ethical to say that vaccines pose no risk and no doctor can honestly promise that nothing is going to happen because that is not in their control. The lying an intense pushback against parents who are simply looking to do what is best for their children makes me reconsider all vaccines. We are a family that accepts 95% of the recommended vaccines and now I will be digging deeper into all of their inserts and making decisions about what is best for my family because that is my job. My job is not to line the pockets of greedy doctors at the possible expense of my children's health and safety.

She and her newborn baby should've never had to wait over an hour and a half to even seen, and when asking about the status should not have been treated with such rudeness. Apparently you have to be the elite of prairie village since I saw about 20 families go in and out while she was waiting with a newborn. Inexcusable scheduling and then they have these large signs about a late policy and how you will get penalized. That's ridiculous. Given an hour and a half to just be seen and be treated so poorly. I don't care how good the providers are there are other places people could pick unless you're just retired and have a half a day to hang out in their lobby!! they have never historically with her other older child been on time. People that came in 30 minutes after she did have left the lobby and many others have as well some practices just take advantage of people that don't complain. Do not use this practice.

We went here for the first time yesterday and had one of the best experiences we've had at a…read moredoctor's office. Our five month old son woke up at 2am with raspy, strained breathing that sounded so scary. We went to urgent care right when they opened, checked in, and were seen within 45 minutes. (There were about five families in front of us that had checked in first, but we got seen before them because we had a baby under a year old that was having breathing problems.) Once they checked his weight, oxygen levels, and heart rate, they sped up the process since it seemed serious. Within minutes there were three wonderful nurses and NPs who were helping us out and wasting no time... They gave him Tylenol for his fever, an oxygen treatment for his breathing, and a steroid for his lungs. There was a night and day difference in his breathing after the breathing treatment. Praise the Lord for modern medicine and treatments like this. It is so scary when your baby is sick and struggling to breathe, and the fact that they immediately took him under their wing was so comforting. They also took the time to educate my husband and I on what the illness was, and how to continue treating it when we got home. (We're first-time parents so this was greatly appreciated.) I'm so thankful that this was our first experience at a children's urgent care...especially during a time that felt so scary and unknown. To the team at Children's Mercy: THANK YOU!!! You are doing tough, tiresome, momentous work--and I'm sure you see what seems like a million kids during cold and flu season--but know that your efforts and kindness are SEEN and SO appreciated. You are doing life-changing, valuable work. It means the world to exhausted, scared parents like us. Thank you.

I took him to the emergency room entrance and the security guard where you have to put all your items on a conveyor belt and they search your bags, was very nice. I was not quite expecting this at Children's Hospital. But regardless he was nice and then he directed me to the check-in woman right around the corner who took my ID and scanned it, and I was given a sticker with my photo on it that I had to wear on me at all times. I was then directed to a nurse at the front desk who was not welcoming at the beginning and had a general attitude. She got a little bit better as she looked over my grandson, but she was just generally not very pleasant. The security guard had jokingly said I hit the jackpot because the waiting room was empty, which was a miracle. I was immediately called back with my grandson and a triage nurse looked at him and then brought us back to a room. We were than seen by another nurse who talked to us about what happened and generally looked him over and then said a provider would be in. Everything was going smoothly and quickly and then all of a sudden we were just waiting forever for the provider. The next person that came in was the woman that took the insurance and she was very nice. Then after that, another nurse came in and she said she was the new nurse because of a shift change. And I said whatever happened to the provider we've been in here for a long time and we were the only people in the whole waiting room. So then she said well it's gotten really crazy out there now and I said well, I understand, but we were here and absolutely no one was here. And I know they most likely base the immediate visits on how injured a child is, but the amount of time it took a provider to come in was too long. After I brought it up then I got a text, saying a provider was looking at the chart and would be in soon. At this point, I'm wondering if they just forgot about us because the kids were so good in the room and we were quiet and not complaining! So the doctor comes in, and he was gentle and good with my grandson, but he spoke very quietly, and I could not barely hear him. Then he suggested three tests while we were there for Covid, RSV, and the flu, which I said was fine. Those tests are rapid tests and we get again were left in there and I said we're gonna be leaving and you can call me with the results because by this time it was past 9 PM and they had no dinner and they had already seen him for what he was there for. So then after I said that the doctor came back in and said the test were negative and said that the nurse would come in and check us out. So I waited again and I finally went out there and she's just sitting at the desk and I can tell she completely forgot about us. I said we are waiting to get checked out and then she just went over to a computer and printed off the pages and that was it. So I was not happy with the general attitude towards the adults in general. They were good towards my two-year-old grandson who was excellent to wait that long with no dinner. Also, as soon as I rounded the corner, I heard the nurses whispering about me. I was completely nice and totally professional and I think if they were forgotten about, they might have felt the same way. So I would not go back unless we absolutely had to. I think the thought that kept coming to my mind was that they have seen so much and dealt with so many families that they have just kind of become hardened. In comparison, the urgent care that I visited first, everyone there was truly kind and compassionate, and there was a big difference in the attitude between the two medical institutions.

Everything has been great so far. Parking: Adjacent garage that's usually easy to get a spot in, despite being a congested area with hospitals around. The elevators in the garage look the exact same as when I was a kid and that's not necessarily a good thing. Definitely not made for the claustrophobic; I take the stairs even when hauling my little chubster in a car seat. Office: Nice, friendly and efficient. I've yet to wait well beyond my appointment time. Hours: Another plus, they have weekend hours although we haven't had to take them up on the offer yet. Quality: Top-notch. Great doctors across the board and a place you can trust. While we're fortunate to have only had to go here for check-ups and shots, it's been a five star experience so far and it was an easy decision to come here. The only universal law is that you're bound to catch some kinda germ or bug in the lobby here in the winter, so wash your hands!
