We had a very concerning experience with Carolyn while scheduling a pediatric appointment for our…read moredaughter. During a phone call to verify insurance, the staff member began asking questions about our family structure that were irrelevant and inappropriate. My partner and I are a same-sex couple and our daughter was conceived through IVF. Despite explaining this, the staff member repeatedly asked who the "biological mom" was, referred to one of us as a "step mom," and asked where the "biological dad" was. Our daughter has two mothers. There is no father involved. She is insured through one of her mothers' employer-sponsored health plan, which should have been the only information needed to confirm coverage. Instead of simply verifying insurance, the conversation turned into questioning the legitimacy of our family. This was uncomfortable, unnecessary, and frankly unacceptable in a pediatric healthcare setting. Families come in many forms, and medical offices should be equipped to interact respectfully with all of them. At minimum, staff should understand that children can have two mothers and that insurance verification does not require probing questions about a "biological father." I hope the practice leadership reviews this interaction and provides staff with better training so that other families--especially LGBTQ+ parents--do not have the same experience when trying to access care for their child.

We love this office, and our pediatrician (Dr. Meredith Reynolds)!…read more We started going when our first baby was born (they came to the hospital of course), and have continued for over 2 years, along with our second baby as well. We love the home away from home feeling from the office and location itself, next to the river and one of our favorite parks. Everyone is always so gentle, from sick visits to shots and physicals. My daughter had developed some doctor anxiety around 18 months but it quickly subsided by her 2 year old check up when she wore her Elsa costume and got complimented and hyped up by nurses and the doctor. She loves doctors now! I love that we can call for a same-day sick appointment, and I love that there seems to be no dumb questions. I feel heard with any concerns I have for my children, and I feel valued as a parent trying to do my best. Any referrals we have needed or asked about have been responded to promptly. You can relax in this office, and rest assured that your babies are in the absolute best hands. Truly the best pediatrician office in Northern Nevada, hands down. (Also, the froggies are a huge bonus.)

Aspen pediatrics has been our pediatrician for over a year now. We had our first child back in…read moreAugust of 2023 and started with Aspen from the beginning. We have had nothing but good experiences for the first year of our child's life! All of the doctors are super kind and knowledgeable. Never rush us or make us feel stupid for asking all those first time parent questions. We typically see Dr rotem and she quite honestly changed our life. When we came in for our 9 month appointment she asked us how we were sleeping - and honestly we weren't! Our son had terrible sleeping habits and Dr rotem spent extra time at our appointment helping us with suggestions we should do to help. After that day, our lives were so much better and we actually got our son to sleep! Love this practice and all the staff!

Arguing with me about "policy" and refusing to have Dr Frazee see my sick 2 yr old because the patient paperwork was not filled out only because it was NOT available on the patient portal to do!!! How is that my fault???? And why is it that the receptionist handed me the forms to fill out while we waited to be called and then all of a sudden it's not okay ? Heather acted very unprofessional, talked to me like she was wayyy above me when in fact she is NOT and had an attitude like her sh*t don't stink. I do hope Dr Frazee that you see this and start looking for a new manager ASAP.

As a new mom, I was not aware that you were supposed to establish a pediatrician very early on in…read morethe pregnancy. So I waited until the last month to get recommendations from friends and make the appointment to go in. She was recommended by 2 people I knew from her previous practice. Little did I know I would be induced 2 weeks early. Luckily Dr Frazee took us in at the last minute notice she had, and came to the hospital for the circumcising. We have never been disappointed since. Many doctors have a nurse call you back and never actually take the time to make calls themselves. Dr Frazee always returns phone calls when you have questions and generally she calls back within a very short period of time. There is never a long wait at her office. The office itself is clean and her staff is friendly. When we had a bad rash early on, she got us in for an appointment quickly and got it taken care of. But the most impressive thing to date is her schooling a lab clerk over the phone on how to find a record in the system. We went to get labs done on our newborn for jaundice and the person checking us in at the lab was not only a bit rude, she had no interest in helping us because she stated there were no records submitted for us to be there. I called Dr Frazee's office to let them know we could not get into the lab. Next thing you know, Dr Frazee gets on the phone and tells the check in person where the records are at on the computer! The attention to detail and personal care is not something you get with many health care professionals these days, so Dr Frazee's team is a breath of fresh air in a world where you can barely call anyone without getting an automated service. She is very personable at the visits and we will keep seeing Dr Frazee as long as we live here. We would recommend her to any friends we know who are looking for a pediatrician.

There's one other fish tank available for viewing if your child gets over Daisy quickly. Each room is labeled by places you can travel in the world, and inside each room are decorations or pictures of the place the room is labeled by (Italy, France, Spain).

When searching for a pediatrician I reviewed a lot of websites of providers around town. The first…read morething that stood out to me about Reno Pediatricians was their very clear non-discrimination policy listed right on their website. They were the only office in town with that. Then, we set up a a prenatal consultation with Dr. Riar and immediately knew she was the doctor for us! She was as knowledgeable about pediatrics as she was personable. She is also very supportive of a parents rights to choose what's best for their child. They do require you to follow the CDC vaccine schedule, but everything else is whatever you think is best for your baby. She was supportive of our home birth plan and was okay with us bringing the baby ASAP after birth. But we transitioned to the hospital for birth and she was supportive of that too. She visited our baby every day we were at Renown. Unfortunately they just moved locations and the new office isn't as conveniently located. But that's okay, this provider is worth the extra parking steps!

*United Healthcare accepted here*…read more My rating is based on Dr. Riar; not the interior, not the front office staff, but again, Dr. Riar. I recently registered my children with Dr. Riar here at Reno Pediatrics, and I couldn't have found a more fitting doctor. She asked various questions to learn about my daughters development, habits, diet, etc, which I loved. She's not an "in and out" kind of doc and to parents everywhere, that matters. When I say she's fitting, this is because she's very firm and straight-forward. She tells you what needs to be done to better the health of your children without running around the bush, whilst reflecting on her own experiences as a mother. Now... everything else. Environment: When you walk in, the environment is kind of cold. Other pediatric offices are colorful, inviting for children, providing games, books, or toys, but not this one. Which, really isn't a bad thing. You can either go to a pediatrician who has all the fluff going on but doesn't care, or you can go to a regular-shmegular looking doctor office like this one, and actually get a doc who doesn't rush your appointment and gets to know your kid. Front office staff: The front staff could be a little livelier, you know? A little smile wouldn't hurt, lol. Again, is it a big deal? No. Wait time: What wait? lol. We went right in! Just how mama likes it! Location: Behind Renown, between Mill and E 2nd (I think).

The office is always clean and is a calming environment which is much needed when your kiddo is sick or needs their next set of shots.

I called to get a new pediatrician because our pediatrician moved all the way out to Rob Drive. I…read morehave a foster daughter that has Medicaid and my birth daughter is cash pay. They said that they except Medicaid but not cash pay and I asked him the reasoning and the woman said, " it has to do with continuity of care. If we order labs we wanna make sure that you're able to afford the labs or specialty testing." I explained to her how I can afford the medical care my daughter need as I get a stipend through my job. She said, "well we can't assume that all cash pay patients can afford it." I told her that they are assuming that all cash patients patients can't afford it which is not very fair at all. Cash pay patients Pay better than Medicaid patients sometimes. This was disheartening and frustrating. As I'm calling around I often find facilities they don't except Medicaid, but this is the only facility that does not accept cash pay patience. I think that it's awful that they assume that I cannot afford care for my daughter. They are putting an additional barrier on our medical care and it's hard enough as it is not being offered health insurance through my job. I'm sure The doctors are so amazing and have no idea that this is even going on.

I agree with Karen that the office (Sierra Pediatrics) is really efficient, and I have never encountered any problems with getting appointments, having to wait, or billing issues. My only complaint is that I get sick of the "handouts." As an educated person, I feel better when given a thorough explanation of something than when given an over-simplified one-page handout to read. I realize this saves time for the staff, but it frustrates me. That is why I have dropped one star, but overall I think that Sierra Pediatrics is a great place to take your kids.
