I started here when I only had my son, and it was a different female young doctor. She was nice but…read morekept pushing the Covid vaccine on my kids, she ended up leaving which I was sad about cause I like keeping the same doctor for my kids. We were switched over to Dr. Burge, which we have been with for at least 5 years now. We adore her! She listens and really cares about the kids. I hope she stays for a long time cause my kids and I enjoy seeing her. The staff there are always nice. The MA (medical assistants) seems to change often though.. Parking (in the back) can be hard, it's shared with the post office and another office. Sometimes you can find parking in the front (park street) and around the corner, but you have to pay. Overall, my kids love coming here, there is a place in the waiting room that they can color and then after the visit, you used to get a lollipop and sticker, but now you can get a token to choose your prize like a bouncy ball, sticky hands etc, or you can opt for just a huge square sticker. The bandages they give after they give a shot or anything is also always cute, like transformers, dogs, cats, etc. Someone is always greeting you at the front and super friendly. The wait is not long after you check in. (It used to take awhile but recently it has been quick) I left for a year due to insurance change but was eager to come back after I got back my old insurance.

She engaged with my daughter and we discussed, therapy, birth control ( when she decides to have sex), her Junior year in high school and a whole bunch of other stuff.

The business is clean, the administrators are attentive and helpful! Everything is great! I definitely recommend this business!

I feel like she was a physician assistant or the doctor wasn't in. I'm not sure but she was like oh it's normal for her to have a fever for seven days and it should go away tomorrow. It did not go away tomorrow. She continued her fever through the night. I took her to Stanford health the next day and she said she 100% has pneumonia. They gave her antibiotics and she was better within 1.5 days. She still had that terrible cough but at least the fever finally subsided. It was terrible my poor little seven-year-old and urgent care Pple not knowing what the hell they're doing thank God for this place. I highly recommend.

Dr. Parker is the best pediatrician, EVER…read more See I rarely use capital letters in my sentences, just because it ruins the grammer so much, and I usually hate reading it in other people's reviews, but she deserves it. I grew up with her. I've been going to this her as early as I can remember. Dr. Parker is caring as she is kind. She always listens actively and deeply when you answer her questions, and can talk with you for an hour long. Which other doctor does that? I felt so cared for growing up with her, and actually always look forwards to my doctor appointments. I used to make lists of things to talk about with her. She has given me so much advice growing up, and I am sad to no longer be able to attend Alameda Pediatrics.

Dr. Parker told me my daughter was healthy. So I accepted this, and tried to deal with her OCD,…read moreARFID, anxiety, and other disorders. As my girl became more and more fatigued and sensitive, it became hard to leave the house. I have fatigue issues, but was spending hours trying to make food she would eat. Our lives revolved around her sensitivities. I finally told Dr. Carter that she was tired all the time, and I thought something else might be wrong. Dr. Carter just sent back a sarcastic note about her diet. And that set me back. Because when you ask a doctor for help, and they just imply that the only problem is with how you parent, it's really hard to know what to do next. But we left the practice and found a more thoughtful doctor. Whom I deeply appreciate. And it looks like my daughter may have been having problems with multiple systems for some time. I don't know how much growth and health she has lost at this point. But Dr. Carter could have caught this much sooner, if she had taken 5 minutes to order appropriate tests. Or even ask me more questions. Instead, she decided that it was more important to shame me for not controlling my kid's eating disorder. Which I was already exhausted from trying to do. So I am not her biggest fan at this point.

She made time to see us, quickly assessed and resolved the issue, and handled everything with a high level of professionalism and expertise. What stood out most was her genuine kindness and ability to connect with our kids. She created a calm, reassuring environment that made them feel comfortable and at ease throughout the visit. At the same time, she was thoughtful and attentive to us as parents, ensuring we felt informed and supported every step of the way. Dr. Ashley clearly has her patients' best interests at heart. Her combination of clinical skill, responsiveness, and compassionate care makes her an outstanding pediatrician. We feel very fortunate to have her and would wholeheartedly recommend her to other families.

However I noticed…read morethat he didn't wash his hands upon entering the room or put on gloves and it bothered me a little but didn't say anything. Halfway through the visit, my 2 month old began crying. To quiet him, Dr. Usem put his ungloved, unwashed hand inside my baby's mouth to quiet him. I was shocked and horrified but at that point it was too late to say anything because it had already been done. Fortunately my pandemic baby didn't get sick or anything but it made me as a parent sick to my stomach. This happened last year in early 2020 and I was meaning to write this sooner to warn other pandemic parents but it kept slipping my mind. I hope that they have upped their sanitation and PPE requirements with all that is going on with COVID. I never came back to this office after that.

My baby never grew anxious near her. My husband and I both work in medicine and feel very secure having had her care for our daughter. There would be a wait before she made it to our exam room (perhaps longest was 15 min), but that isn't necessarily a doctor's or facility's fault, especially if earlier patients run late.

As she is part of a larger practice, Primary Pediatrics, you do get to see other team members when you drop-in (or, in my case, when Dr. Saldivar was out of town) and they, too, are wonderful. When my son needed to see a specialist, they arranged the visit and then followed up afterwards to make sure that everything was okay.

We knew from the get-go that we wanted a pediatrician that respected our healthcare beliefs and fostered a positive, welcoming health care environment for our daughter. Dr. Amy and her staff are amazing. Each visit is unique and individualized, providing enough time to thoroughly discuss any questions or concerns. Dr. Amy is exceptionally knowledgeable and truly cares for her patients. Her office gives off a warm, cozy vibe unlike traditional doctor offices. Due to a recent move, we unfortunately have had to find a different pediatrician for our daughter. But, Dr. Amy has been absolutely wonderful to our daughter over the past 5 months, and any child would be lucky to be under her care!

Dr. Maidenberg has a great bedside manner, is very personable and helps you navigate treatment and care in a balanced and respectful way. She goes above and beyond to make sure that you and your child are comfortable during exams, telling you what she is doing and looking for. No long wait times or impersonal care- a big plus when you have young children. If you have an emergency or questions after hours she is always available and returns calls and messages promptly. We love her approach to pediatrics and our children like going to the doctor because it's always a pleasant experience to visit her office. Highly recommend this practice and Dr. Maidenberg' s expert care and guidance!

In addition, I love their alliance with Stanford Health. Stanford has many locations with high tech equipment for all sorts of specialties. I have always received competent and helpful assistance when scheduling an appointment and have always been cheerfully met at the reception desk. Best if all is my Physician, Dr. John Carper. I have been with him for over 30 years. He is on-time, thorough, patient and a great listener. I am never rushed with him. In addition, I appreciate the detailed discussions about lab followups and his expert advice. My last visit, I was actually taken to the exam room 10 minutes early! With Alameda Family Physicians and Stanford, my health is closely tracked and well documented. I feel like everything is being done to monitor changes in health due to age and corrective actions are being made to keep my body in check. In my opinion, Alameda Family Physicians is stellar with preventative care!
