Well,
I hope I don't make this review long - or maybe I should.
I went to this doctor because I saw some of the reviews and all said she was a great doctor, very caring, great with kids, never rushing and taking the time with each patient, and indeed that was the true. Every time that we were seen she was very polite and showed really interest in our child, and always answered all of our questions and/or concerns. Also, I decided to have Dr. Vargas as my baby's pediatrician since - from the research and reviews - stated she was "vaccine friendly", and again that was also true. She provided good background and why she was not prone to vaccinate babies with the cdc schedule, and she let us decide which vaccines to give our baby, with of course her recommendations. So I really liked that. However, the one vaccine that we decided to give our baby by the third round that he needed it her office didn't have it. And here comes the bad, the really bad.
I believe that the least amount of time we waited in this office was 1 hour, with the most being almost 3 hours wait to be seen by the Dr. Not nice, not professional, not respectable to others time.
Besides this, the office is filthy, not clean at all. She uses a lot of outdated machines, which I don't mind, but the couches, the toys, and all of the other equipment were dirty. I mean this is a doctor's office! I don't get how can this be allowed. I didn't notice this at first, but by my third visit I started to noticed how dirty this office really was.
And what ultimately made me changed pediatricians was that by our 7th visit, she didn't have the third round of the shot for our baby (when it was supposed to be given by our last visit, and she told us she was going to order it) IT WAS THE ONLY VACCINE that we had decided to give our baby, I mean, just ONE, How can this happened? I still do not get it.
I know, I waited 7 whole months. Maybe I was hopeful that next visit I wouldn't have to wait so long. Maybe I though by the next appointment I will enter the office and would be able to give my baby a clean toy. MAYBE, by the next appointment, they will have my baby's shot ready. But it never happened. I stayed there for 7 months because I really liked the Dr. But the dirtiness, the lack of professionalism, their lack of responsibility to their patients, and their lack of overall consideration for their patients and us, the parents was not worthy.
PLEASE, if you would still like to try with this Dr. BE AWARE that you will be waiting there for A LONG TIME, and have a back up Dr for your baby. For me, the wait, the office's poor efficacy and competency was not worth my money, time and most importantly my baby's health and care. read more
