I've been seeing Dr. Amina for my two girls (ages 2 and 4) for 6 months now, and my experience has…read morebeen very positive so far. As in any doctor's office, there is sometimes a 20-30 minute wait, but seeing her is worth it. I'd say that 4 times out of 5, she's been able to take us for a same-day appointment. She is gentle and takes her time with each child. Dr. Amina is knowledgable with homeopathic medicine as well as Western medicine, and I appreciate that she tries natural remedies first before going the route of medication or antibiotics (which has worked each time!). She's also considerate of how many factors can affect my child when she's sick. For instance, she guessed that my daughter may have asthma when I brought her in for a lingering post-cold cough (her father has asthma, which I hadn't mentioned!). Her staff is friendly, and my girls love the colorful play waiting room, kid-appropriate TV programs playing in the background, child-friendly bathroom, and the cute themed exam rooms. The girls leave with Disney stickers (makes them smile!). And there hasn't been any tears yet. So thankful that such an accessible, caring and skilled pediatrician is only 12 minutes from our home!

How can I ever find a sixth star? Dr. Monfared, Lien and Yamileen have been just one FANTASTIC…read moreteam. My sister found Dr. Monfared when her son was only a few months old, then along came my niece and Dr. Monfared continued to take care of them in such caring way for 6 years. She is the best Pediatrician my daughter could ever have, she came highly recommended when I adopted 2 years ago and we have been with her until last month, that we had to move out of state. We really didn't realize how lucky we were to have her and her team. We miss them very much and we wish them nothing but the best!

I took my son to see Dr. Monfared because he was sick. After examining him, she recommended a strep…read moretest, and my husband and I agreed. She later returned and told us that my son tested positive for strep. I then asked if my husband and I could also be tested, and she later told us that all three of us tested positive. However, we were not shown the test results. She prescribed antibiotics for my son. I asked if she could also prescribe antibiotics for my husband and me, but she said she could not, which I understood. After leaving, I decided to seek a second opinion the same day. Another doctor tested all three of us for strep, and all of the results came back negative. That doctor also showed us the actual test results. To be thorough, we also went to Hoag Urgent Care later that same day for another test, and those results also came back negative for strep. Both places told us that what my son has is most likely viral and does not require antibiotics. I want to give Dr. Monfared the benefit of the doubt, but this experience was very concerning. I'm not sure if there was an issue with the testing process, the test kit, or some other explanation. It was frightening because I was very close to giving my baby--who is under 18 months old--antibiotics that may not have been necessary. This situation was especially disappointing because I had hoped she could become my son's pediatrician. It is very easy to make appointments, often even on the same day, the office is close to us, and she appears to be easy to talk to.

I would not recommend Newport Children's Medical Group. Years ago we went to the Laguna Beach and…read morethe Newport office, their organization and professionalism was a struggle, so we decided to not return to this practice. Several years later, when our pediatrician sold his practice, we thought we'd give Newport children's medical group another try. Again, the Newport office is disorganization, and Dr. Kellum was truly a disappointment. There was no follow-through, the doctors and office staff do not return your phone calls, when a referral is needed, they don't get back to you, which means you can't see a specialist, because the doctor's office doesn't get back to you with the referral. I am not one to leave negative reviews, but when it comes to your child's health and safety, I will spend the time to leave a review to share my experiences.

I have 4 kids (teens and tweens) that have been seeing Dr. Auth at Seaview for the last year or so…read more We are very happy with his office off of Laguna Canyon Road in Irvine and my kids really like the doctor. He has a great disposition and I like how he speaks to them about their issues - not me. He treats them like young adults and makes them take responsibility for their own well being - whether it be the number of hours they sleep at night, brushing their teeth or washing their faces to avoid acne. He makes them have ownership of it, yay! He's also a kind and caring doctor - my son has suffered from sinuses for years now. Dr. Auth has now been seeing him for just over a year and he really wants to figure out the cause behind his sinuses. That means a lot to me since we have seen an ENT specialist that wasn't that helpful or receptive to finding a long-term solution. His staff is great - the ladies at the front desk in appointments and billing are always really helpful and quick to answer questions or respond. His nurses are easy going and helpful as well. I get a really good vibe from this office like they all respect one another, enjoy working together and have created a nice team. No complaints here.
