Dr. Machado is always excellent. He explains things very clearly AND is very kind and friendly with the children and just as courteous with all family. The wait was not short as we expected, but we understand that changes in the second office is a stringent circumstance that will go back to normal soon.

I always enjoy Dr. Machado.he knows how to keep my daughter calm to allow him to do what he needs to do for her. He explains whats going on with my child in detail, and he goes over and beyond the call of duty to make our experience a great one.....

Worst experience at a Doctor's office . I scheduled an appt for my daughter about a month ago. I confirmed my appt over the phone and by text. When I got to the office (15 minutes early) they wanted me to re-schedule because they were running late with their morning appts. I refused as I had already taken my daughter early from school and left work in order to attend. After 20 minutes the nurse said the Dr will make an "exception". FYI- if you miss an appt with them and don't cancel in advance they will still charge a fee to your account. I waited 1 hour and 30 minutes for the Dr to see my daughter. Once he (Dr. Machado) saw her he was in such a hurry he did not really exam her fully and he said he'll be "right back" . The next thing that happened was the nurse coming in saying you are free to go. I did not feel my daughter received proper care and they wanted to re-schedule another appt to address my other concerns.. in other words I would need to pay for another visit, miss another day from work if I wanted to put out all my worries at ease about my daughter's health. I don't recommend this office, staff, nor doctor to anybody.

Dr. Machado is the first Pediatrician that has taken the time to acknowledge my concerns and fully explain them so that I feel comfortable about my choices in my sons care. He's great with children and you can easily observe that he enjoys what he does. We've been to several Pediatricians who did not make us feel like we were a team in our child's care, and Dr. Machado is the first who respected our roles as advocates. Staff is friendly and welcoming.
