The only reason it was a long wait was only due to i was a new patient. Other than that if was ok. Staff was friendly and Doctor was very interested in my daughters health. She answered all questions & took her time.
April 19, 2019Love-lee F.Verified patient
Dr. Tabora was excellent. As first-time patients there, she exceeded our expectations. She is very patient- listens to all your concerns, then addresses them. She took her time with us. When we left, we agreed we would take all our children here from now on. It is about a 25 minute drive from our home but definitely worth it.
January 11, 2019Mycah Alexander O.Verified patient
Dr. M Tabora takes great care of my daughter. She is very knowledgeable and has excellent bedside manners. Her staff is very nice and helpful. So glad I found her on zocdoc.
January 9, 2019Toya L.Verified patient
My son has been going to Dr Maria for years. She is great. Wonderful with my son and great bedside manners, she is the ONLY reason I continue to come to that facility. The staff on the hand are not as wonderful. It’s extremely hard to book an appointment because no one ever answers the phone or calls back when a message is left which is why I use Zocdoc app. My most recent visit was the absolute WORST I had an appointment for 430 which I received a reminder for earlier in the day. After checking in and writing my sons name on the clip board at 430p we waited 30 minutes which was particularly long given they normally are on time. I decided to ask how much longer the wait would be and they told me they didn’t realize I was still there and DR. Maria had gone home for the day. So frustrating being that I live 40 minutes away. They should definitely check their clip board and waiting room before everyone goes home, Especially knowing their was a 430p appointment scheduled.

Excellent md
August 20, 2018Shainah Kyla D.Verified patient
She’s a wonderful pediatrician, I brought in all 4 of my children and she was just wonderful. They felt comfortable with her. I usually have a difficult time because my children are very shy but they didn’t even want to leave! Staff was wonderful.

I like the doctor. But the assistants were not great. They took forever and was thinking that i did not have an appointment and did not even bother to ask me. If i did not ask why i would be waiting till all of the patients were seen.
March 7, 2018Marie Claire J.Verified patient
Dr. María has been taking care of my daughter for almost 2 years. I currently have a 3 month old son who has been taken care of by Dr. Maria. I highly recommend her.

She is sweet and nice! My daughter loved her and her staff members! The wait time kinda sucked wasn't too bad though maybe about 15 minutes, but I never mind waiting. Definitely my daughter's new doctor!
November 13, 2017Jessicka D.Verified patient
Took 17 yr old with mild special needs. She talked to him very nicely and got him in a conversation. Addressed both the problem we came in with and another she saw. Wrote appropriate referrals and fully explained waht she was doing and why.

September 11, 2017Clavin M.Verified patient
Very clean and very nice staff wait was a little long due to everyone going in for before school stuff but it was worth the wait my child them.
August 7, 2017Justin M.Verified patient
What a wonderful Doctor! Not only is Dr. Maria one of the most caring doctors my child has ever seen, but her staff are also super-friendly and great at their jobs. The office space might not impress you- but it's not important. Excellent care from an excellent provider is worth a million fancy offices!! You will not be disappointed at this Doctors level of attention to detail, and kindness. I hope I never have to take my child to a different pediatrician!!
