I honestly can not give Milestone Pediatric Therapy & their fantastic team enough praise! My son…read moresaw Miss Emily & Mary for speech therapy for around 3+ months. We find them through an approved list from our insurance carrier, Kaiser. The office is clean, & check in process was some of the smoothest I have ever experienced. No shoes are allowed once you cross out of the waiting room. The front desk ladies are friendly & really got to know my son in such a short amount of time. They always knew he wanted to show them whatever toy he brought for the day & there was always a sticker he enjoyed getting they'd let him pick out. Payments were automatic and I never had any issues there. Within one session with both ladies, we were able to get him using words we knew he had in there-they just helped him bring them to life. My son & I were both bummed when we ended services due to him starting preschool & getting the services while there. Emily really grew on him. He would absolutely light up seeing both ladies. My son, his attitude, behavior, and speech all elevated by coming to Milestone. The absolute patience the staff has is incredible. My son had a couple sessions of occupational therapy and we absolutely loved our therapist as well. I felt included in each of his sessions with all the ladies & there was something we worked on each week to improve the next. My son went from saying a handful of words to now speaking sentences. We game together and he fully understands that we need to take turns. Started off as a super worried mama, and left confident that we would be more than okay. Thank you, thank you, thank you again to Milestone. LOTS of parking & super easy to find. Delicious cafe not far from the entrance!

This review is for the scheduling and billing department and not the physical therapists…read more Poorly trained personnel on insurance claim and following up on patients when there is a doctor referral. I waited about 3 weeks for the clinic to contact me after our pediatrician put in a referral to see PT for my childs torticolis. When I did not hear back I called the office, the first lady said she could not find any referrals then I spoke to a second person that said the paper work sent over was incorrect. I told her since this is a time sensitive issue to go ahead and put me in as a private pay so at least we can start the evaluation and make future appts if needed. Made an appt for an evaluation, only to be called by another personnel to cancel the appt because they are not able to figure out if they are contracted with my insurance. I told them I would still want to come in for the evaluation since its already been over a month and I would pay as private pay until insurance is sorted out. I ended up seeing Miss Paige and Miss Hannah. Both are great PTs and did help improving omy childs torticolis. I ended up using 6 or 7 appointments, 3 months had passed and each time they wanted to cancel my appt because they couldnt figure out insurance coverage. Long story short I finally had to email all the claims and what my insurance had cover and my copays that I had paid for them to finally realize what was happening. Insurance companies suck I get it. I deal with them on a daily basis at my job. But not having trained personnel to deal with the insurance complexities is not acceptable in the health care industry.

We've had such a wonderful experience with Gina C. at Radiant Kids Therapy. Gina truly listens to…read moreparents' concerns and takes the time to set clear, realistic expectations, which immediately made us feel supported and confident in our son's care. What really sets Gina apart is her patient-led approach. She meets my son where he is and adjusts each session based on his needs in the moment. Gina is incredibly compassionate, sweet, and attentive to cues. When my son becomes overwhelmed and needs space--sometimes even needing to step into a quiet corner--Gina recognizes this right away and adapts without pressure. That flexibility and understanding helped her build real trust with him. Because Gina listens, observes, and adjusts so thoughtfully, our son feels safe and respected during sessions, and that has made a huge difference in his progress. She is a fantastic representative of Radiant Kids Therapy, and I highly recommend her to any family looking for a caring, patient, and child-centered speech therapist.

He genuinely looks forward to every class, and seeing his excitement and joy walking in says more than words ever could. The impact on his development has been incredible. We've seen growth not only in his sensory regulation and skills, but also in his confidence, engagement, and overall happiness. Every session is thoughtfully guided with patience, care, and a true understanding of who he is as an individual. We appreciate her more than we can fully express. Anyone who brings this much happiness, comfort, and progress into our child's life will always have a place in our hearts. We feel incredibly lucky to have found someone who cares so deeply and makes such a meaningful difference in our child's journey.

My son had been receiving OT services with MeBe for several years. MeBe has staffing issues and…read morearen't able to retain good providers. For the last few years my son switched 3 therapists. In August 2025, he stopped receiving OT services as MeBe lost 3 OT providers at the same time. He was placed on waitlist until MeBe hires a new provider. Three months later he was discharged from OT services without opportunity to discuss this decision. If you want your child to received continues services, MeBe is not the right place for it.

Despite the important work being done in the ABA field, the company consistently fails to support…read moreits employees in meaningful or sustainable ways. One of the most concerning issues is the lack of communication and transparency. Employees often receive no notice when clients cancel sessions, resulting in wasted trips and unpaid time. In such cases, you're either told to clean the facility (an unreasonable expectation outside the role of a Behavior Technician) or you're abruptly reassigned to cover another BT's session without context or consent. The pay is among the lowest in the ABA field, especially when weighed against the emotional and physical demands of the job. The work environment is poorly maintained, with cleanliness being a recurring problem. The facility does NOT look like those posted online. The children's bathrooms and common areas are often unsanitary, raising valid concerns about hygiene, safety, and the general quality of care. A particularly troubling practice is the use of personal items like wipes brought in for one child that get used on other children, without the caregiver's knowledge. Additionally, BTs are often left in the dark about health-related issues like lice until after the situation is already "handled," which puts both staff and other clients at risk. Unsurprisingly, the company suffers from a very high turnover rate, which reflects the broader issues within the organization and further destabilizes the workplace. Overall, they show little regard for employee well-being, professional development, or proper client care. Even by looking at the reviews the only 5 star reviews are for speech therapists, not from the work being done!

They also wanted us to go on a waitlist 2-3 months from now so in the long run we won't actually get our help 3-4 months. If I could give zero stars I would.

I love Ocean Beach Speech because of their Speech Therapists Meghan and Michael. The quality of care they gave to my daughter is amazing. The first speech therapist of my daughter was Meghan. My daughter is 2 years old that has stranger anxiety issues before. And she don't speak a lot of words. She always cries a lot whenever she gets frustrated. When she had sessions with Meghan, she is really interacting well and she loves playing with her. I am amazed on how they make learning fun with my kid. And in every session she is sooo excited to see Meghan. She loves learning new things and she is speaking new words. I am very happy of my baby girl's progress. She loves Meghan because she always have this big smile whenever she sees her. Meghan is one of the sweet and best teacher / speech therapist they have and their substitute speech therapist Michael is also the best. When Meghan is on maternity leave, Michael is now my toddler's speech therapist. I am amazed on the care and patience they gave to my little girl. Both speech therapist are excellent on their crafts and they have special skills that make the kids happy with every session. My daughter is always excited to see Michael and she loves learning words while playing his cool educational toys. She is speaking a lot of words now. She can speak sentences now. She really improved a lot. I highly recommend Ocean Beach Speech Therapy. They are soooo great with kids that has speech delays. Thank you very much for everything.

This review is for OT. Would leave zero stars if I could. The billing has been a constant issue,…read moreeven when we cancel appointments, we still end up getting charged. The sessions are advertised as 30 minutes, but in reality they feel much shorter. The therapist usually spends the first 5-10 minutes letting our son play, then about 15 minutes on actual therapy, and the last 10 minutes cleaning up and wrapping up the session. When I called to ask about it, the person I spoke with said it's because insurance only allows them to bill for 15 minutes of therapy. It's frustrating to pay so much when only about 15 minutes of the appointment is actual therapy time. Overall, we were not impressed and ultimately decided to pull our son out.

He has high sensory needs and severe speech and language delays. He loves the equipment and toys at this center for OT. Some speech sessions can be challenging because he's not motivated to talk, prefer to be under the table instead, etc. Our main Speech Therapist here is Ms. Vidya, she is fantastic! She has made so much progress with my son's speech. Chris and everyone here are very knowledgeable, experienced, and professional. These sessions not only have helped my son but also helped me with being a better primary caregiver for my son. It's really just from observing what work or doesn't work with my son during sessions and by asking questions to Chris and his team. One of the things that these sessions help me with is having a better understanding of my son's physical needs and being a better problem solver. For example, I was able to practice certain things outside of sessions to help my son with like desensitizing loud sound from hair clipper/hand dryer, putting on his clothes independently, etc. Overall, we are so grateful to have MyKidsPlace in our son's life.

NorthStar Wowed us with the little things which are BIG to ASD families "literally made us feel like we matter" Northstar took the time to go over Bear's situation and remembered it ! Dr. Katherine listened to bears needs, she knew his likes. An iPad was already set up with his favorite reinforcers when we arrived...I couldn't have been more impressed!!! Northstar is going to empower a lot of children and families in a very positive way. As I mentioned for 10 years, I've tried several Speech companies over a dozen Slp's spent hours on researching the current options not knowing which was right for Bear such as pecs, more than words, and several AAC device apps for my little nonverbal guy. Mind blown !!!! because in one hour Slp, Maddie at NorthStar gave me enough information about my sons learning style (which happens to be Gasalt) something I had never heard of it until that day, plus several new tips on how to communicate with him and to get him to communicate with me. Since that appointment I discovered that my sons learning type wasn't new it's actually been around since the 80s but that a lot of Slp's haven't heard of it or don't know enough about it which is unfortunate, because it tends to be according to research the main modality of learning for learners on the autism spectrum. Who knew? Oh Northstar!!! I cannot stress enough the importance of somebody explaining to you HOW to work with your child (since there are a lot more hours in the day than just one for speech therapy) it's something that "you need to carry it over" do at home to get maximum results!!!!! when you have the right support and knowledge the sky's the limit... Maddie, thank you from the bottom of my heart for focusing on Bear and his needs recognizing how he learns language and how we can implement strategies to further his communication....You have pointed me in the right direction after years of circling confused wondering why such slow progression Your knowledge is so informative the most researched based current and best approach to assisting him in his communication journey. I truly felt like we were stuck in one area and now with so much more information in my toolbox. I'm anticipating seeing so much more language from my lil guy... PLEASE if you are a parent of a non-speaking child, whether that's due to autism or any other speech, delays issues or concerns """""I highly recommend that you give NorthStar try """" you will get set on the right path.... literally follow the North Star""""" Also if you are a parent who's been feeling defeated by the lack of progress let me assure you that there is hope this is the place to start or start over !!!!
