Picking a pediatrician was hard. Everyone has "the best pediatrician ever!" but then when you start…read morelooking into them, you realize they don't take your insurance, or they are great but you have to wait over 2 hours every time, or there's only one doctor, or the doctor is close to retirement, or its in BFE etc. So I made it my mission to find someone who would be the perfect fit. My criteria was: 1. They had to be within 20 minute driving distance in case of a last minute appointment. 2. More than one (good) doctor in the practice in case of vacations, retirements, etc. 3. Separate sick waiting room 4. Perfect balance of old school/new school 5. Great staff. Kendall Pediatric Partners meets and exceeds all criteria. They are conveniently located in a place with PLENTY of parking. They have extended hours and work on Saturdays too, so making an appointment is easy, even last minute. I have called them at 9 am and gotten an appointment for 10 am! They have a 24 hour hotline. You call, leave a message and a doctor gets back to you as soon as possible, often within minutes! My daughter was born prematurely and spend a couple of weeks in NICU. The first night home was scary. (Why didn't anyone tell me babies made so much noise at night?!?!) I called them at 4 am and got a call back right away. When I said " she is making all these weird sounds...." They knew exactly what sounds they were and reassured me it was normal. I have seen all the 3 doctors at the practice and it's hard to decide who I like more. Dr. Siblesz was who we interviewed originally. She is a no-nonsense doctor, very to the point and professional. I like her honesty and how straight forward she is with all her answers. Her approach to medicine matched my idea of the perfect doctor, which is why we picked the practice after meeting her. Dr. Olavarrieta is so sweet and delicate. She takes her time explaining everything. I love her energy, it is super soothing and she knows how to calm me down. Not going to lie, when my daughter went for her 3 month check up and she told me "Good job mom and dad! She looks great!!" I almost cried. She knew how much I needed that reassurance that I was doing a good job. Dr. Llosa is an older gentlemen and you can just tell he has seen it all and has a solution for it. He was great with baby but my favorite thing is that he is a facts guy. He tells you percentages and probabilities, recent studies and professional experience. He knows his stuff! The other review on here is the reason I found this place and I am so grateful. For me, the hardest part of being a new mom is realizing how little I know.

I cannot say how many times children in our family (myself included) were misdiagnosed and/or in emergency situations and he has been the only one who has been able to give the correct diagnosis and best treatment. There may be a longer wait than what people are used to; but, rest assured it's because Azaret takes his time. Till this day, at almost 40 years of age - every time I take my kids Azaret will sit and ask them how they are doing, how's school, what grades are they getting, etc.. Then it's my turn - he always makes sure to give me a hug, ask me how I'm doing, and make sure everything is okay. The entire staff is AWESOME !!! From Maura who remembers everyone, Jackie who the kids have a love/hate relationship because they know what's coming once Azaret calls out "Jackie" LOL, and everyone else who has been there for decades ...

I have been taking my children to Kings Bay Pediatrics for almost 17 years. Always thought the…read moredoctors were amazing. Their current staff not so much. A couple of months ago, I took my daughter in for a checkup, and they recommended a vaccine that she needed. When the nurse came into the room, she was carrying an unlabeled syringe. I questioned her about it, and she became defensive to the point that I felt uncomfortable, so I decided to leave without having my daughter vaccinated. Later that day, I spoke with someone from the office and explained what had happened, as the pediatrician never returned my call. A few weeks later, I called to schedule another appointment for my daughter. The person who answered the phone immediately knew who I was and told me that I still would not be allowed to see the vaccine being prepared. I explained that I wasn't asking to watch them prepare it--I simply wanted to see the vaccine vial before it was prepared so I could verify the vaccine name and the expiration date as there's always a chance of human error and 2 sets of eyes are better than one. I then received a letter from the pediatrician stating that, because I apparently did not trust their office due to all of my questions, I should find another medical provider. What bothers me most is that after almost 17 years with this practice, my questions were interpreted as distrust. I wasn't questioning the doctors or accusing the office of doing anything wrong. I was concerned about one particular experience with a nurse and simply wanted reassurance about what was being administered to my daughter. As a parent, I don't think asking to verify a vaccine before it is given to my child is an unreasonable question. I was already uncomfortable after the initial experience, but the way the office responded to my concerns has now made me question my confidence in the practice as a whole. I was already considering finding another pediatrician. Unfortunately, their response has made that decision much easier.
