Children’s Primary Care Medical Group

I’ve had my triplets at this facility throughout their life, and I’ve been very satisfied with their care here. I’ve had a good experience with almost all of the doctors here. My girls drs were Dr. Tsoulos (who was excellent) and Dr. McCormick (also excellent). Both of them took extra care with my girls and always listened to what we had to say, and easily referred us when we needed to see a specialist. I love the care Dr. McCormick took in explaining everything to my girls, and she never made me feel my concerns were not valid. The referal lady, Daisy, was also excellent, going the extra mile when I needed it to get authorizations to see the specialists we needed. My girls are 18 now and I will be sad to leave the safety net of CPMG … I’m so thankful for everything they have done. The only con I can think of is the wait time for calling … I’m sometimes on hold for 10 or more minutes to talk to anyone; but when I do get with someone they are always doing their best to help me.

My experience there has been great so far. My daughters Dr and nurse are very friendly. When my daughter was referred to be seen for an immediate follow up after being in the hospital when she was 2 months the staff quickly set me up with an appointment that week with a different doctor but even that doctor was nice and friendly and made me feel relieved that my daughter was improving with her virus. I like that the check in’s are quickly I don’t have to wait in the outside wait room for hours like other places. I highly recommend this place.

I love all the staff and have been cared there since I was a baby till now! I’d like to thank Dr. Sternfeld for being the most caring Dr I could have met! She’s been caring for me since I was a baby and I’ll be 18 soon. She is definitely more like family to us then my care provider. I will be bringing my kids to her in the future. She knows how to handle things well and knows what is best for me and my brothers and sisters. I look forward to seeing her each time we come in! I also appreciate every other staff there is in Radys Citracada! Thank you Dr. Sternfeld!

This is a review on Dr. Sternfeld. I have officially filed a complaint regarding my experience with her. This was the most traumatizing experience I’ve every had with a «Doctor». I usually bring my son to Dr. Bowers who is educated, kind, and understanding. Since she was out on vacation so I saw Dr. Sternfeld and I couldn’t have been more disappointed! I brought my 18 month old son in because he had been tugging at his ear and we had recently had found mold in our new home. I wanted to be sure I was taking the right precautions since he was exposed. She left me waiting in the Doctors Room for almost 40 minutes, with a toddler!!! She entered cold and emotionless. As soon as she looked at the chart and saw that my son had whooping cough at 6 months old she asked me if I had vaccinated him since then. When I explained our family had made the EDUCATED decision to choose no vaccinations, she flipped. I understand that this is a controversial issue, but I KNOW that we made the BEST decision. End of story. Regardless of her «beliefs» she has no right to refuse care to an innocent child. She didn’t even care about my son! She sternly attacked me…
She said the following…
1. That I was not welcome at the facility because of our choice.
(What!?! So the only way I am welcome is if I pay you to inject my child with unsafe substances that can potentially damage his immune system and neurological development.)
2. That my son and I should be walking around with masks and we always have to enter the «sick» side.
(What!?! So because my son is not vaccinated he is sick, that is the most ridiculous thing I have ever heard. If your vaccinations works so well than what are you so scared of)
3. She attacked my choice as a parent and told me I wasn’t protecting my child.
(How dare she! How dare you say that to me. I am a MOTHER! My life revolves around protecting my son, especially from people like you who don’t have his best interest at hand)
4. She then began to «diagnose» my son with pertussis AGAIN without even examining him. He didn’t even cough she just took it upon herself to make the diagnosis. This blew me away! (BTW my son didn’t have WC again)
(I saw my son go through WC, I know what it is, what it sounds like, the progression of the cough, etc.) Why would I take him out and put other children at risk. I actually care about children.)
5. After being harassed she said, well I’ll go ahead and take a look at his nose.
(His nose!!! Did you even read the chart? I came in for his ear and to ask about the mold exposure)
At that point I lost it. I couldn’t believe what had happened. You take your child for true CARE. This is so tragic. Our medical system has turned health into vaccination injection. That is not what HEALTHY is. It’s time to wake up and take care of our children.
She mentioned that Rady’s Children’s Hospital is PRO VAX. Of course they are. How else do they get paid. Wake UP!!!
I hope and pray that Sharon realizes her lack of professionalism that day. I will be choosing another health care provider and facility.
By the way my son is healthy and THRIVING:)

My daughter was very sick last week and they got her in right away. Everyone at the office was so nice and helpful. My daughter saw Deborah Mills and she was wonderful, I was very surprised on how much time she took with us. She gave me a lot of helpful information regarding asthma. Very happy that my daughter was feeling better that night.

My kids’ pcp is Dr. Coullahan and she is awesome. She is everything that you want in a pediatrician. I had two other doctors for my kids before I came across her, and I am so glad I found her. If she is accepting new patients, definitely have her as your pcp before she is filled up! I took off 1 star NOT for her, but for the location. The front desk staff are snobby and stuck up (it’s usually the blonde girl — who was pregnant a little while back)
