GetzWell Pediatrics

We’ve been with GetzWell for over 4 years and with two kids. Julia Getzelman is the definition of a conscientious, caring, and invested care provider. They really practice «whole kid care» here, making sure to address not just physical health and development, but social/​emotional and behavioral wellness. They are also very knowledgeable about the latest research in food and nutrition and have a refreshing integrative approach that employs the best aspects of both natural and western medicine. The hour-​long appointments are not rushed, are so very thorough, and allow both the staff and families to form a relationship. I am deeply grateful for the amazing care Julia and her team have given my children over the years. One of my kiddos has severe immune issues and we have had our share of acute events with both kids. The pediatricians at GetzWell have always gone above and beyond to research, discuss, and guide us. For the longest time we have gone to their original Noe location, but since moving to the East Bay, we have gone to Union St. a couple times and it’s just beautiful. Both locations are spotless, comfortable, and inviting for both kids and parents. (Yes, that’s right– we moved to the East Bay and still commute to GetzWell because we simply couldn’t find anything close to the care we so love and value.) My only regret is that we didn’t start with GetzWell from the very beginning, but I am so glad we discovered such a wonderful and supportive resource. I truly see them as partners in fostering my kids’ well being.

Let’s begin by expressing my immense love and gratitude for this clinic. We have been seeing them since my son was born (I have a review listed on their noe clinic) but the continuous and genuine care they offer cant be bought. I have called on christmas –my son had a high fever, weekends and they respond to emails almost immediately and follow up to see if everything is ok! This office will provide genuine, uninterrupted care/​time. I have never been rushed or shut down to move to another patient. I LOVE them and am so grateful. Its very clear why they were rated the #1 pediatricians office in sf. We were thrilled they opened a new office by our new home!
Noe review
Loving getzwell is an understatement. They are hands down the best doctors office Ive ever been to. Calm, clean and detail oriented, the staff here will never rush you, spend as much time as you need and are even available on weekends, evenings and holidays (yes Ive called during those times in emergency situations). Dr Getzelman and i have had long discussions about food ideas, boosting immunity and preventative measures. I ABSOLUTELY love these girls and would recommend them to anyone!

We’ve been GetzWell devotees since I was pregnant with our first child and Dr. Getzelman gave me invaluable advice about food, supplements, and general daily habits to ensure a healthy future for our baby, in far greater depth than my OB ever could. We’ve since had a second child, and everyone in the GetzWell practice has been fantastic at every step of the way. It was a hike for us to go to Noe Valley every time one of them had to go in, but well worth it given the quality of care we received.
Since both my husband and I have busy work schedules, we were thrilled to see that this location opened up, which is much more convenient for us! It’s a bright, beautiful office where everything is super clean (including the toys and books) and we always feel welcome to stay as long as we need to – which is great, since our kids actually start to cry when they have to leave. Last week, when our daughter was there to check on an ear infection for the second time, she happily settled into a chair and exclaimed, «I like it here!»
I really appreciate the holistic, personalized, and non-​rushed approach that GetzWell takes to healthcare. We truly couldn’t be happier with them (especially now that it’s so convenient to go there). Thank you, Dr. G, for opening up this second office!

As a new mother with an acute awareness of the complexities in raising a healthy child, I was elated when Getzwell opened their Union Street office. I loved the office in Noe, but this one is much more convenient and I better understand what makes them unique. Before my son was born, I thought my choices were limited to either high volume impersonal practices on the one hand or very expensive concierge practices on the other. But, Getzwell is just the right balance, with truly holistic care and docs really interested in a relationship. I feel so incredibly lucky, they don’t think I’m crazy to question vaccines or be concerned about BPA in canned goods, etc. Getzwell’s docs are sensitive to the needs (and anxieties) of our family and have created a customized care plan just for us. And, I loved the fact that after delivery, they provided a newborn house call. Since then, I’ve found their services are unrushed, appointments are easy to book and I can reach them by phone or email whenever necessary. The office is beautiful, super clean and modern to top it all off. GetzWell Pediatrics is where it’s at.
