Thanks for the call.
Great office!
That Seven Ogg lives there.
Love my doc
We love DSP!
See a new doctor every time. Staff isn’t the friendliest.
We love Desert Shores, that staff, and Dr. Allred.
Amazing staff! Always attentive and quick to answer any and all questions.
I brought my grandbabies in and they were simply amazing….timely, friendly and very professional.
Have been with them for 5 years. Always caring
Just don’t go, no need to waste money and be treated like a 2nd class person.
NEVER on time. Great service if you ever get to see the doctor but you better come here and be very patient.
Love this practice! All docs are wonderful, clean and friendly environment.
Dr Allred is very sweet and thorough.
We love Desert Shores!! The doctors are great, and the staff is always smiling!!
Love Desert Shores! Never an issue being seen same day. The office is clean and the staff is friendly
Everybody we encountered was beyond friendly and caring. The office was spotless. Over all experience was wonderful.
This office is the worst health care experience I’ve ever had. Constant busy signals no one to speak to and the front office staff is incredibly rude.
We love Desert Shores. I really appreciate how friendly everyone is and how quickly they can get my daughters in for an appointment.
I love this office. The staff is efficient, friendly, and the doctors are very knowledgeable. They listen to my concerns and answer my questions thoroughly. Definitely recommend this office to others.
I’d honestly give this practice negative stars if I could, the lady who answered the phone was rude, brief and had no common courtesy. I am not surprised why all these reviews are negative 👎 …
Staff are great! Dr.’s are experienced with great bedside manner. Place is also beautiful and clean! Been taking my kids here since they were babies.
Been coming here for 9 year’s we love Dr. Jean Mullen and all the staff
Everytime I’ve gone, I never wait longer then a few minutes. Also I am a first time mother and every time I call to make an appointmeant they get me in right away, its very reasonable and they really do care.
Two seperate times we waited over a half an hour to be seen by a doctor. Show up early for appointment and get stuck waiting for a half hour. This office has gotten our insurance wrong every time we have come in, some things don’t change. Strongly recommend not using this doctors office!!!
Love DSP! Been taking my 3 kids here from the beginning and have had no issues! Scheduling is flexible and the physicians are wonderful with the kids and parents.
I am very grateful we found Desert Shores! I called to ask advice on potty training. The doctor personally called me back and talked to me for 10 minutes! Now that’s customer service! Thank you to the doctors at Desert Shores Pediatrics!!
They say they treat ADHD. They say they are accepting new patients. Wrong. They are only treating their existing patients with ADHD and they are not accepting any new patients with ADHD even if they have already been receiving successful …
The staff has always been friendly, and they have been able to get us in the same day for concerns several times. They are even open on some Saturdays! I called on New years eve morning (a Saturday) and was able to be seen within a couple of hours. The doctors are great too.
My son has a lot of skin problems, for about a year and a half. The doctors Yin and Mullen told me it was a food allergy and excema. Which was true, but it turns out it is just ezcema, and extreme reaction to animal dander. He got a staph …
We took our son here for a checkup. The doctor was rude and condescending. Then she tells us we need to be sure to give our kid dairy. Apparently, she is still studying 1950’s medicine and does not know the connection of respiratory issues and cancer linked to dairy intake. No wonder she looked so unhealthy herself.
Desert Shores is hands down the best pediatric office! We just had our yearly check-up with Dr. Ciminello and I couldn’t be more please with the thorough check-up and the time he gave us to ask questions. We love Desert Shores!
During the yearly check-up and for two years in a row up they told my son that he needed glasses and he should see an ophthalmologist. Both times his eyesight was 20/20. The ophthalmologist told us that these guys do not know what they …
Extremely poor communication! My 5 day old son needed treatment for jaundice and they INSISTED on sending me to Phoenix children’s hospital. I asked multiple times If I would be able to go to a hospital I was comfortable and familiar with, …
Dr. Allred is fabulous. She has seen our baby since the beginning and she’s what keeps us coming back to this practice.
Amazing doctor, the experience is great but unfortunately won’t be returning because the front desk staff is so unorganized and unprofessional. They called me for a payment of 26 dollars which I paid, I told them to call if there is any …
Desert Shores Pediatrics is sufficient for standard procedures like vaccinations, annual wellness checks and flu shots. If you make an appointment for a consultation, be prepared to make follow up appointments since certain providers offer …
I have known many of the doctors, NPs, and PAs for a while now, and luckily was able to bring our NB to see them last year! They are absolutely the most knowledgeable set of physicians I have met and they really take your opinion into …
I have been taking my 2 kids her for about 8 years now (since my littlest was a baby!) and I have always had good experiences. We have mostly seen Marion Memmot and Kelli Garland (who treats my son’s ADHD). All the providers listen and we …
This office is amazing my daughter has been going to Dr Mullen since she was born and we couldn’t be happier. I took her in for a flu shot the other day and the tech (I think her name was Julie) went above and beyond to make my daughter feel comfortable.
Every time i call to make an appointment or if my son is sick i get a busy signal , this morning i tried for 2 straight hours all i got was a busy signal and it wasn’t the first time! How can i trust them if they dont even answer their …
The front office staff has always been super helpful and informative. I have six kids so sometimes when I go to the doctor’s office I’m a little overwhelmed. All of the staff in this office has been super patient with my kids and I. My …
It seems as though they are not interested in taking new patients? At the very minimum, scheduling doesn’t coordinate well with physicians. I scheduled our first visit to assess the current medications my son is taking for various …
I have been taking my daughter to this location since she was born. Medical care is top quality. Doctors and nurses are friendly and attentive. Even front desk staff is friendly and approachable which isn’t always the case at doctor …
Customer service is horrible. Called to schedule an appointment and the girl that answered the phone (I believe her name was Beatrice) was extremely rude. I could not finish a sentence without her continually (and rudely) interrupting me. …
Only giving one start because my kids were patients for many years and they liked Dr Alred. I was told in July that they are out of network with my insurance. We have had 4 visits since January and I was never told I was out of network. …
great doctors there. but i agree with all the other people. They NICKE and DIME. it’s unreal. never experienced that before. Charged us $85 for a holiday fee. But never told us about the fee. I had to call and fight for that to be taken …
I went to desert shores as a teenager and now both my children go there! Love every doctor we have ever seen. Awesome front desk staff, great MA’s. Very friendly. Going to the doctor as a child can be scary but both my children feel very comfortable there. Would highly recommend!
We love Desert Shores! I have been taking my 2 kids to the Chandler office since they were born and have had no issues. My kids actually enjoy going to the doctors. The physicians and staff are amazing. Never had any problems making an appointment and always get right in. Thank you DSP for your awesome services
We absolutely love Desert Shores Pediatrics! When my daughter was a month old, we switched over to Desert Shores Pediatrics from our previous doctor and we couldn’t be happier! Our kids never put up a fight when we have to go to the …
I wasn’t extremely pleased with the nurse that gave the Kinder vaccines to my son- she poked him four-times with the vaccines and didn’t seem very experienced with how to make the children feel more comfortable in the process. I have …
We really wanted to like this place, had a few recommendations, but never had a good experience with any of our kids there. To top it off, they will “nickel and dime” you to death. I have never seen extra fees like “supplies”, “handling …
Everyone here is great and they are very accommodating with schedules. I love their late hours and that the are open on Saturdays. Dr. Baron is our daughters pediatrician. She is absolutely wonderful and caring. She goes above and beyond …
Hidden Costs/Unprofessional! Look out for a $30 “Supplies/PPE during Public Health Emergency” charge for appts, and if you take advantage of their Saturday appts (normal business hours as listed on their website) you will be charged $85 for …
Fantastic Pediatrics office!! The staff is always friendly, the Doctors are amazing and I have never had a problem getting in the same day. They offer late and Saturday hours as well. The care my children receive is top-notch and I would …
We loved Desert Shores Pediatrics Pc . Staff was very friendly, masks worn at all times. Dr Lora J Van Tassel MD was wonderful, our son loved her. Thank you so much to everyone at Desert Shores Pediatrics.
We absolutely love desert shore pediatrics! Both kids have gone here since they were born and we’ve never had a bad experience! Staff is friendly and helpful! We just adore all of them!
I’ve been taking my son to Dr. Allred. She is awesome. She is very knowledgeable and good bed manner with kid. Her team, staff are wonderful.
Shocked at the reviews saying they aren’t on time – actually laughing because we always get right in ON TIME! Amazing customer service and we love our doctor! My 15 month old daughter is not the most civil or calm patient and they still …
My wife and I love the staff and doctors here. We drive over 30 minutes just to be able to take our newborn here. Would recommend.
Beatrice,
provided plenty of dis-service. We were told and explitly asked if they would be providing drive up flu vaccines. We were told that all of the flu vaccines this …
I usually take my son to the Chandler office…and will continue to do so if it means not being subjected to judgemental clinicians who should focus that energy on their front desk staff instead of the patients. I know these are trying …
Original Review: Have been visiting Desert Shores Pediatrics for 18 months. Large office with many doctors. Bounced around from doctor to doctor, no real relationship building, definitely a healthcare mill to bill insurance – quick and out. …
The staff are so friendly and helpful! We’ve seen Dr Baron and April so far and both were AMAZING!! They really listen to us and give advise but are never pushy. Being a first time parent can be so stressful and they really helped calm all my nerves!
My son is 15 And we have been going to Dr. Allred since he was 8. He is very comfortable with her and she is very conscientious about his stomach disease. she also is concerned about mental health during this time of covid and has been very …
Such a great office! I’ve been so impressed with all of the providers we have seen! Dr Kipp and Dr Allred are wonderful! So caring, such great bedside manner!
This is a horrible practice if you want your child to get well go somewhere else they have 5min visits look at ears listen to chest ask u what symptoms repeat them to you and what u are taking and send u on your way I’ve been there several …
Desert Shore Pediatrics is the best pediatrics office we have been to in the valley. We moved here from FL a little over 1 year ago. Since moving we have been to 2 pediatrics offices and have had horrible experiences. So far, I have no …
We have been coming here for over two years and we absolutely love it! The staff cares so much and always makes us feel comfortable. I appreciate the open, honest conversations and we never get the feeling that we are being judged. We are about to have another baby and I feel such a relief knowing that he will be taken care of here!
I have been taking both of my children here since 2015. We have been seen by virtually every doctor at the practice, and have loved all of them. Currently we are being seen primarily by Dr. Van Tassel, who is wonderful. If you want a …
We currently have our two kids at Desert Shore. Unfortunately, our experience has been more negative than positive. My son has had uncontrollable vomiting for 8 weeks. My largest issues are with the staff communication and follow through. …
My son & I moved here about 2 years ago and everyone recommended Desert Shore. DON’T MAKE THE SAME MISTAKE!!
The experiences I’ve had so far at Gilbert office…. …
This review is very long overdue. We have been a Desert Shores family for a little over 11 years. Our doctor of choice is Dr.Nason and we feel so blessed to have found her. Our little was born early and needed to see numerous specialist and …
We’ve been going here for 3 years and it’s been good until today. We’ve moved to Mesa and drive 30 min each way. Today with a sick kid who has been coughing for days to the point of throwing up, running a fever… I asked for help and was …
We love Desert Shores! The front office is efficient and friendly. Kelli Garland is a great listener and spends time with her patients. We appreciate getting to share ideas about treatments and work together to take the best care of our kids!
We LOVE LOVE LOVE this office! We have been coming here for eight years and I have been so grateful for all of the providers we have seen that have taken such good care of my kids. I am able to get appointments in a timely manner and once …
My daughter is two years old and until last week my wife has alway been the parent to take her to appointments. My wife was admitted to the hospital with pre-term pregnancy complications, and I was the one who took my daughter to her two …
Cindy Besch, FNP-C, is terrific! She is a caring and knowledgeable medical provider. Her expertise and compassion, combined with her excellent listening skills, make for a great experience. She explains everything very clearly and takes …
My son has come here since he was a baby. He’s now 10 years old. I will never ever bring him here again. Dr. Teng is the worst. You come here with true concerns and walk out dismissed and unheard. I waited for 30 minutes. She only let me …
UPDATE
The owner called me personally and apologized profusely. She told me that the situation had been dealt with and she was extremely polite and caring. She got …
