I recently had a checkup with my new doctor. Although I was very happy with my old--oh, so very…read moreold--doctor, I am equally happy with my new one. When I was younger, I needed far less medical attention. As I've aged, however, I've needed more, and I've now seen Dr. Spira in action. I have been delighted by his thoroughness and the attention he gives to all my slings and arrows. Dr. Spira reaches deep into his bag of tricks, suggesting analyses and treatments in areas that are new to me, all with the goal of helping me stay on my feet. I was quite content before, but as the systems inevitably begin to fray with age, they require ever more attention. I feel fortunate to have such an excellent practitioner guiding me.

After six months of researching and meeting with roughly seven different practices across the San…read moreFrancisco Peninsula, I ultimately chose Village Doctor and Dr. Maia Mosse as my concierge medical team. The Peninsula's concierge network is impressively interconnected, but the most critical factor for me was finding the right doctor-clinic fit. Though I initially sought an older male physician, Dr. Mosse has been nothing short of phenomenal. Her enthusiasm, depth of knowledge, and willingness to go above and beyond stand out--especially in crafting personalized solutions for even lifestyle obstacles related to exercise, diet, and sleep for me. She excels at explaining clear, actionable steps toward a healthier life, cutting through the noise of modern wellness trends. In just four months, her guidance has led to: My best blood sugar and lipid levels in over a decade. Losing 20+ pounds (and counting). Successfully adopting intermittent fasting as a sustainable habit. I also prioritized a multi-doctor practice with strong administrative support to handle non-medical tasks swiftly--all at a fair price and payment structure. Village Doctor delivers very well on this end: their staff is exceptionally friendly, making every visit a positive experience. Even though I'll likely be moving a 45 minutes drive away soon, I plan to keep Village Doctor as my concierge practice.

I'm really sad that Dr. Parker left this office. We have been a patient of his for many years. We…read moresaw another doctor and I'm really feeling torn now about staying with them. I am the parent of a very difficult 3 year old. I fully acknowledge his behavior and was quite embarrassed and upset by all of it. I'm struggling, the doctor sees I'm struggling, and she made a comment saying "this behavior is not normal for 3" . Normally if the behavior is not normal a doctor may have suggestions or ask more questions, dig a bit deeper. But she just sort of finished the evaluation and left. I obviously should have dug deeper as the parent and sought help but I guess with a comment like that I expected her to care more or show concern. So now I'm home looking up behavioral therapists because I'm just in a state of - what do I do? Previously Dr. Parker recognized my sons speech and language was a bit behind. He asked questions and immediately had suggestions and had recommended us to GGRC for speech and language support. It was really helpful and obviously necessary. But I appreciated his input and his suggestions and that is what I want in a pediatric doctor. The front desk staff and medical assistants/nurses have all been wonderful. Always very accommodating and despite my sons anxiety at the doctors and his outrageous behavior- I've never felt like they've judged me. They've been kind and compassionate. The medical assistant today, who administered shots was so lovely and so kind. I wish I asked for her name! I'm very sad about our visit. For many reasons. But that comment will stick with me for a while I'm sure.

She's a fabulous clinician, with a calm, relaxed manner that sets children of all ages at ease. She has an intelligent, no-nonsense approach that favors natural over pharmaceutical as appropriate. She's available by phone or pager when you need her unless she's out of country (then she'll have another holistically minded pediatrician take calls for her). We were in Canada when our daughter was a baby and had an issue of concern come up. We were able to reach her without difficulty and she even gave us a follow up call the next day to be sure all was okay - and this was during the evening over a weekend. I also belong to a holistic parenting group and the majority of the members who live in the South Bay or Peninsula area all use and love Dr. Sonneman. If you are seeking holistic, integrative, complimentary care for your baby or child then you really need to meet with Dr. Sonneman. Note: she doesn't take insurance. You need to pay at the time of your appointment and she will give you a superbill you can submit to your insurance for whatever reimbursement they might offer.

My experience with Dr. Nasta is one where she will provide whatever is needed for a child, when it's needed. If a day fills up with a rash of sick kiddos, I'm aware she'll stay at the office seeing patients until 8 at night and her availability over email has been superb. I feel confident about her expertise approach, her sensitivity towards my children as they age and become more self-conscious about their bodies and the list of ideas she always has to overcome a symptom or condition with integrative wisdom. A previous reviewer mentioned the product line she sells as a negative. I think its great.
