Doctor was good with checking my child. However, refused to see my child anymore because I don't vaccinate.

She spend 30 seconds on the child and charged for 2 well visits in 1 on the insurance claim. This was awful will not go back again. Did not answer any questions or concerns not sure where her focus was.

Very kind. Amazing staff!
May 21, 2015Maya S.Verified patient
I would expect a more inviting and caring introduction at a pediactric office. Not at all impressed with the doctors behavior and the sense of rushing showed toward an 8-year old. Bad first impression !

Scheduling ended up being complicated - got a call back from office staff and initially had difficulty communicating. Once we were there, everyone was pleasant, especially the physician's assistant who was incredible with the kids. Will bring the kids back for their next checkup.

My visit seeing Doctor Shukla was wonderful, I brought my son in who was battling a cough and fever for 10 days and Dr. Shukla diagnosed it w/pnumonia, we went for an xray and she was correct. I'm so glad I brought my son in.
