They have not only been extra attentive to this inexperienced first time mom but have given extra valuable advice to raise a healthy, good eater and happy baby. It is invaluable to know you are able to reach Dr. Liu off hours and to receive immediate responses to emails. Dr. Davari is also amazing!! Thank you for being you, for being thorough, for being considerate to your current clients, making sure we are seen at the appointment time, allowing us to do walk-ins and truly caring for our daughter's well being. Thank you for accepting us as a client and being considerate by not overbooking new patients. Your time with us thus far is invaluable! We have taken away so much in the past 23 mos that we would not have if we chose another Doctor. I can only say good things. If you can get in to this office, you are extra lucky!

We had our follow up appointment a few days later and he was able to address all of our concerns and questions.

As a parent herself, she is understanding and is always very attentive! Her nursing staff and aids are all great as well. Not on Dr. Susy, but front desk feedback: They are very disorganized and never seem to take notes. We had to move around our vaccination appt due to family travel. At the direction of Dr. Susy, she suggested we come in the week before our travels. We scheduled it with the front desk as we left our 1 month appt. Come the week of the vaccination appt they call me saying we cant come in, it's too soon for the vaccine and we need to reschedule. I explained Dr. Susy told us to make this appt and we did so at our last appt. They said that couldn't be right and they'd have to call her to confirm then called us back saying we were right - this has happened now FOUR times. Like just write it in our file we're coming early at the direction of Dr. Susy. It's just annoying more than anything. They also still don't pronounce our daughter's name correctly. Not a reason not to have a great Dr like Dr. Susy but still... wish I didn't have to deal with this

Do NOT go here, they will over charge you with all kinds of hidden cost. I took my son in for a…read moresinus infection and ended up with a bill more than $1000 dollars after insurance. During the visit the doctor asked if it is okay to check his ear for infection, naturally I said yes. They had to remove a little ear wax to see the inside. A week later i got a bill for $129 to remove ear wax. That is utterly ridiculous. I would have removed it myself if they told me that ahead of time. I've been coming to this office for a couple of years now and it is getting worse. There is no price transparency and many surprises on additional charging. i will not be returning to this office.

Let me start off by saying that we show up to appointments on time, follow doctor instructions, and…read morepay our bills on time. That said, UCLA is breaking their side of the contract. Do not go here. If you do, please note: 1. The office requires that all communications go through My Chart and that they will respond within 48 hrs. Standard response time is MUCH longer or never. Way too long to answer a simple follow up question to an appointment. Have been in situations where advised to contact pediatrician by medical professionals and cannot get through. 2. When you do receive a response, sometimes it is a non-doctor medical professional responding, and we have had times where the response is not relevant and clearly copy-pasted from a form response. The non-doctor medical professionals are also empowered to immediately close the conversation after responding one question. One time the advice even contradicted the explicit medication instructions on a label, which would be a safety issue had we not read the label. 3. Regularly overbill and we have to spend a lot of time remedying the situation with the UCLA billing department. Even then, their rates are much higher than non-UCLA pediatric specialists. 4. You can always get in because they open up a ton of appointment slots on a rolling basis within 24-48 hrs. The down side is, they up charge you for booking the appointment because it is being booked on an "urgent" basis. What's the point of a pediatrician, if you can't see them when your kid is sick without incurring a significant up charge? Life isn't all well checks. 5. After hour nurse line always advises to go to ER. 6. We have had lab results posted on My Chart (not talking about just a throat swab or strep test) and received zero follow up. The posted lab results will have no interpretation and no message or guidance posted. When this inevitably happens, I head to Reddit, Google, or the neighborhood ER nurse. 7. Pediatricians are kind at appointment, but the entire system is designed to minimize all communication with them. They are walled off from patients by design. Multiple kids here for many years. Actively shopping for better care.

I'm extremely disappointed with the care--or lack thereof--my family received during a recent…read moremedical concern for my son. I was out of the country and sent a message through the patient portal early in the morning. Despite multiple follow-up calls from both myself and my mother, we received no response from the doctor. The office told my husband and mother to bring my son in, which they did--traveling over an hour to get there before closing. Despite arriving while Dr. Miller was still in, she never came out to assess him, nor did she or her team respond to any of our messages or calls. Over a week later, and her team still have not reached out to us. My husband ended up taking our son to urgent care. This is especially upsetting coming from a team that has cared for my child since birth, without any issues. We will not be returning and will gladly find care elsewhere. P.S. As several other comments state, yes -- the front office staff is rude!

First let me say that we have been taking our two boys to Manhattan Beach Kids' Docs for 10 years…read moreand we have been happy with the professionalism and care we have received from the doctors and nurse practitioners. This review only has to do with my experience with making or moving appointments. You often have to make appointments 3-4 months in advance. Same thing if something comes up and you have to move an appointment. I called a week before my boys next appointment and was told they could not get me in until April (3 months from now). And the receptionist was quite abrupt and unhelpful. That is what ten (10!) years of loyalty gets you. Too bad I will be looking for a new doctor because of a receptionist's attitude (and that the office can not be more flexible with re-booking appointments). Related issue: there are often have long wait times sitting in the waiting room waiting to be called in for an appointment (such fun with a sick child). BTW - this is my first ever Yelp post.

He is what you wish every pediatrician were. He treats kids with so much compassion, and is even kind to stressed out moms with 400 questions. I'm a physician as well, and I am consistently humbled by his expertise each time we visit him. I have 2 girls who went through a really rough few years with Covid & POTS. They also have anxiety & ADHD. The older one also came out as trans. These are not straightforward healthy kids who go to see Dr. Brucker for just well-child checkups. Talk about the golden trifecta: physical, mental, and gender identity health issues. We were in the UCLA system for the longest time, which was excellent too, but transitioned to Dr. Brucker when our health insurance changed. He's been caring for my girls for about 2 or 3 yrs now. He has surpassed every other amazing pediatrician that has taken care of them. His attention to detail and keen vigilance are unmatched. He's probably the smartest doc they've had. And both girls are now thriving because of him. They are always sick duh, but this is the best their physical & mental health has been and their ability to function within their limitations has been. Thank you Dr. Brucker :)

Makes zero sense, especially when my insurance company called the Manhattan Beach location (shortly after I was turned away) and spoke with someone who said they absolutely DID take my insurance!!
