This is the BEST doctor's office I have ever been to. They ALWAYS have a real person answer the calls during business hours. They always get us in within the time frame that works best for me. The staff takes you back quickly, and everyone is extremely nice. I wish all doctor's managed their companies as proficient and professional as Children's Primary Care. VERY happy parent!

I've been taking my daughter to see Dr. Cohen since she was born, and have zero complaints. Shes 3 1/2. He's very knowledgeable, takes his time, and very down to earth. The wait time is always minimal and the staff are always friendly and helpful. My daughter and I love it here!

I have been taking my 2 children to Dr Henderson since they were born and have zero complaints. There is always a nurse to contact over the phone with any health concern and the Dr replies to my emails the same day. We moved further north and I still go to this office. We've seen most of the physicians at this location and they have all been wonderful.

If I could leave no stars I would. The front office guy is an idiot. Each time I take my child there I have nothing but problems. Today I took my child there to only be told I couldn't be seen for another month when the front office guy scheduled me for this day. They have no care about the patients at all! No apology at all for wasting someone's time! I will be switching doctors.

I love this CPCMG location. We’ve seen Dr. Vu & Dr. Henderson. Both took their time which made us feel like we were really being cared for instead of being rushed through our appointment so that they can move on to the next patient. They asked questions then let us ask questions before and after our diagnosis/well visit. The MA’s are are great as well, could be a little more friendlier but I’ll take them being gentle with my kids over everything else.

Don’t support these people they don’t care about you, your time, your kids. Extremely rude I called and told them I was stuck in traffic I would be late and they told me that I could still be seen. Hurried to the appointment and was told I needed to reschedule. I won’t be rescheduling nothing with this group.

Nurse Debbie deserves an award she is the most knowledgeable and patient nurse I know. The office staff and doctors are all great as well.

I gave it one star only because they had an appointment for us otherwise it would be zero stars! Front desk friendly. The nurse was nice but I felt rushed. Dr Vu I believe her name was… felt rushed with her, she would cut my off. I told her my son has croup- he’s had it before so I know what it sounds like! She disregarded that. She said it can’t be that- his lungs sound good. But he sounded terrible- voice gone, seal/ dog cough, throat was in severe pain! Tested him for strep and flu both negative. Got sent home- he has a cold :/Later that evening had to call 911- he couldn’t breathe ended up in the ER for 6hrs! This is what I was trying to avoid!!! He has croup like I said!!!! Never coming here again!

Every time I call, I have to wait 20-30 mins to speak to someone. Luckily the staff is awesome there, and the nurses are great!

Dr. Cohen is absolutely amazing! Both my boys see him. He is always quick to answer questions, even after hours! He’s funny and knowledgeable which is exactly what we like! The nurses and triage nurse are equally as excellent! We always feel taken care of!

Wait time is excellent, but the staff seem extremely disorganized. The doctor has repeatedly asked for documentation I gave to the front desk. They were surprised and confused about not seeing the documentation. They take a long time to send out a prescription. They will share different information depending on who I’m talking to.

Dr Henderson is the best hands down. Our daughter , Emma loves him . He is thorough, caring, compassionate and we never feel rushed . The nurses are very attentive also . They genuinely care , my wife tells everyone about how amazing and funny Dr Henderson is.

Saw Dr. Shiau and Dr. Vu and both were dismissive of my concerns with my daughter. I suspected that she had a lip and tongue tie that were preventing her from taking a bottle and causing excessive gassiness and spit up. I was repeatedly told that lip ties are normally not treated and to just wait for things to improve as she got older because all they cared about was that she was gaining weight. My concern that she would not take a bottle was not even addressed even after letting them know I was going back to work in a couple weeks and would need her to take a bottle. Dr. Shiau begrudgingly put in a referral to ENT but was insistent that "they would not do anything." I ended up taking my daughter to a tongue tie specialist were they found she had an upper lip tie, tongue tie, and cheek tie on each side. I am writing this review for any parents who might suspect that their child has a tie and encourage them to be persistent in their search for treatment. I work in the healthcare field and was overall very disappointed with the care my daughter received.
