She made time to see us, quickly assessed and resolved the issue, and handled everything with a high level of professionalism and expertise. What stood out most was her genuine kindness and ability to connect with our kids. She created a calm, reassuring environment that made them feel comfortable and at ease throughout the visit. At the same time, she was thoughtful and attentive to us as parents, ensuring we felt informed and supported every step of the way. Dr. Ashley clearly has her patients' best interests at heart. Her combination of clinical skill, responsiveness, and compassionate care makes her an outstanding pediatrician. We feel very fortunate to have her and would wholeheartedly recommend her to other families.

When our daughter, Ari Marie, was born a bit premature, we needed immediate medical care for our daughter and immediate medical guidance for us. Dr. Hoang and Dr. Nam provided both. They examined Ari, answered all of our questions, and showed the medical knowledge and sincere care that you'd hope for from a doctor. If you're in the Bay Area and your child needs medical care, I would definitely turn to Walnut Creek Pediatrics. My wife and I are glad we did.

There were a few steps when walking into the office, so everyone should be very careful to avoid tripping or falling. The staff at the reception desk were just okay and not overly friendly. However, the pediatric nurse who helped us was very friendly. As for the waiting room, I did not like that there was no separate sick waiting room. I was not sure if that was the best setup, especially during flu season, since a child could get sick from being in the same waiting room as other sick kids. There were many books for kids to read, but I was not sure it was wise for children to touch the books there. The decorations in both the waiting room and the examination room were very cat-focused. There were many cat decorations, including cat pictures and cat themed clocks. It was interesting in a strange way. Overall, it was a good pediatric visit.

I cannot say enough wonderful things about Dr. Maria. She is an incredible doctor who truly cares…read moreabout her little patients--as well as their families! We've been with Dr. Maria for nine years and have three kiddos under her care. Every experience we've had with her has been supportive and thoughtful. Dr. Maria is unlike any other pediatrician. She gives out her personal phone number, and you can contact her at any time. This is especially important when you have a baby you're worried about in the middle of the night. Her availability has saved us from unnecessary ER visits many times! She also makes house calls for the first few newborn visits, which is such a gift in those early months of parenthood. She's exactly the person you want in your corner as a new mom. Her office is welcoming, kid-focused, and warm. A special touch we love is her well-trained dog who joins visits--this has made vaccines so much easier for our kids! I cannot recommend Dr. Maria enough. I refer her to all my friends and will continue to do so. You will not be disappointed with the care you receive at her office!

Two key issues here: 1) we have never in 5 years of being…read morepatients here gotten a same day sick visit. Doesn't matter how early you call. They simply don't offer enough spaces when kids are sick like the winter. There clearly seems to be a way around the system to get booked in advance but that hasn't been offered to us. 2) our son had a severe reaction to a bee sting and their response was to schedule an appointment with an allergist for 3 months in advance. When we asked about how do we keep him safe in the meantime we were told to wait until the allergist appointment in 3 months. We asked a friend who is a pediatrician and they wrote us a prescription for an EpiPen on the spot. Why didn't Bayside? If you don't know how to advocate for yourself in the US healthcare system then don't come here. Your kid will get lost in the shuffle and they couldn't care less. I picked this place based on proximity and some decent reviews but I will not be doing that any longer.

Dr. Rush was my pediatrician and now he's my son's pediatrician 15 years after I stopped seeing him…read moremyself. He remembered my family and was truly interested in how everyone was doing. He was there at the hospital each morning after my son was born and has been so helpful through our first month of appointments. He will answer every question you have and cut through a lot of the conflicting information online. I am genuinely skeptical of the motivation behind some of the bad reviews- although it can be difficult to get an appointment on short notice. I recommend taking those with a grain of salt. I have suggested Dr. Rush to friends with babies and would trust him unconditionally with my child!

(Rooms and hallways were confusing but nurses walked us to right door.). 2) Each doctor and nurse took time to explain procedure and answer all our questions - from intake nurse, to anesthesiologist, to surgeon, to discharge nurse, 3) Got to be in operating room and hold my son's hand as they put in IV and prep him for surgery and they explained everything they did as they did it. 4) I left as he went under. 5) Nurse offered snack to parent in different waiting room, donated by another non-profit. 6) Surgeon sat down with me to explain results in detail (with color coded pics) and next steps. 7) At recovery room they were so patient and caring. He even got to keep a pillow, made by yet another non-profit. After discharge nurse called to follow up next day. I ONLY wish they had overnight capacity. I think they would get lot more patients if they were hospital with overnight care in case something did go wrong. For all low risk procedures I Highly recommend this facility.

Not while Jennifer was there, however, because she's AWESOME! While we like Dr. Wagner, he failed to diagnose an appendix issue with our 11 year old (April 2013) with symptoms that continued and then escalated to require an emergency surgery (August 2013). For our newborn's circ. (Sep 2014), they insisted that I not be present for the surgery, for many reasons they came up with on the fly, to the point of nearly ushering me out of the room. All went well until we walked to the car... he screamed while buckling his carseat and literally ALL the way home!! What happened to the pain injection?? The procedure from start to finish took less than 15 minutes so I know it doesn't wear off THAT quickly... I think the nurse either forgot or chose to skip it, poor baby. After all, he couldn't tell me if she did it or not. I called the advice nurse from the car (I was freaking out a little), and was told to reapply the dressing of gause/ Vaseline when we got home. Once home, I opened his diaper (he immediately stopped crying) and found NOTHING!! The nurse hadn't dressed the wound at all!! So his diaper had been rubbing against it the whole time :( that's ridiculous!! And worse, they could have told me about the option for dressing it before I left, I shouldn't have had to call. The "Care After" printout also didn't mention this. Granted, the method used (Plastibell) doesn't REQUIRE a dressing, but if it hurts babies without it, then why not? Anyway, those are the only 2 issues we've had and I don't know that things would have turned out differently at another Dr.'s office. After all, they're all just "practicing" right?? ;) On the up side, the ladies are really nice and they're very good over the phone. They recently added an advice nurse to their staff. They have also been able to give same-day appointments when needed, and/ or move up my appointment time since I was already in the area. Hence, 3 stars instead of only 2.
