    Kara K.

    I absolutely love Doctor Kar and Doctor Brian. The staff including Irma helped so much and the Alicia at the front desk couldn't be more friendly and helpful. Doctor Brian explained many many things which was super helpful. Doctor Kar has been seeing my kids since they were born I highly recommend them.

    Our baby loves exploring the fun paintings in every room

    We were lucky enough to have met Dr Kar during orientation at Hoag. Immediately we knew we wanted him as our pediatrician because of how he explained his own practices and what we as new parents should expect from a pediatrician. He is pro-vaccine and provides copious information on each vaccine as well as a friendly vaccine schedule so you feel informed as a parent. He is evidence-based and will created treatment plans and decisions based on peer-reviewed research as well as experience. Though he has the knowledge, he makes sure to include you by providing options as well as offering advice with his own experience as a father. We experienced all of this when our 3 day old baby went for a check up and had jaundice, dehydration and significant weight loss. Dr Kar acted quickly and provided a plan of action. Though he was straight forward he was also very empathetic and took the time to make sure we felt okay as we head over to the hospital to admit our baby. He and his staff were there every step of the way to make sure we were admitted and taken care of in the hospital by calling and coordinating with CHOC directly. They went above and beyond during a time where we were exhausted and feeling lost. Because of Dr Kar's quick acting we were discharged quickly and our baby made a fast turn around. Now she is thriving and we look forward to every visit with Dr Kar and his incredibly sweet staff. I'll admit, I'm a little jealous that my baby gets such an attentive team and we wish our own doctors would be as informative and passionate as Dr Kar's team is. The team goes above and beyond and will separate the sick and well families during visits. They are accessible all the time and never make you feel silly for all of those embarrassing new parent moments you may have. I've never had to wait very long and the rooms are comfortable enough if there is a short wait. The only reason I wouldn't recommend Dr Kar's office is because we selfishly want to keep this hidden little gem to ourselves! In all seriousness, if you want only the best and you want to be treated like family you need to book an appointment Dr Kar ASAP.

    Our apprehensive baby with PA Brian!

It's the only vaccine we didn't get and it wasn't necessary. One time I called his office to ask a question. They thought they put me on hold and started making fun of me for asking how much caffeine I can have while nursing. MOST IMPORTANTLY he missed a recommendation to get a specific medical test at 2 months of age from his doctors who delivered him due to an issue he had at birth. He said the recommendation was at one year. I found out he was wrong months later. Lastly his office is sooooo depressing. His ancient metal scales made my baby roll and hit his head. All this doctor did was stress vaccines on us. Otherwise he was useless and SO so rude. I dreaded my baby's appointments because I'd have to see this guy. I'm so happy we left.

My son is 2 months now and over the last 2 months, I have contacted Dr. Yu with random questions and he would call me or answer my emails within 24 hours. Made me feel at ease with a lot of decision makings. I highly recommend him and his office. Only advice! Please change your door! Lol. His office has a heavy duty door that slams loud every time someone leaves and they aren't holding the door before it shuts. Definitely has scared my son out of sleep when we've gone for appointments

During the visit, she got down on the floor with my baby while he was playing with a myriad of toys in the office, making him feel comfortable and at ease. The entire office visit was actually enjoyable, which as a mom, especially with a sick baby, is priceless. She never rushes, truly listens, and takes the time to explain everything clearly. I can call her anytime, and she always takes the time to listen and care. If you're looking for a doctor who truly goes above and beyond for both child and parent, I cannot recommend Dr. Vivi highly enough.

It is so reassuring that she is reachable after hours if needed and I couldn't be happier with our choice to have Dr. O as our primary care physician. Not to mention she has the absolute sweetest office staff and nurses as well!
