I am a stay-at-home father of a two year old and twin 4 month olds. I am extremely happy with VYPC. It is, without a doubt, the best place in town to take your kids.
All three of my kids spent time in the NICU. In both cases, the doctors there indicated that VYPC was either recommended, or where they took their kids. My Doctor also recommended them. We have run into other medical professionals who have recommended them as well. A lactation consultant we worked with was surprised when we talked about the good advice we were getting from our pediatrician. When we told her who he was, she said ""Dr. Abbotts is my pediatrician. He gets it. I am only sorry that my kids are all grown up now and can't see him anymore.""
We have not been disappointed. Dr. Abbotts takes a great deal of time to answer all of our questions. We feel like his most important patients whenever we see him. We have had good experiences with the other doctors and practitioners as well.
We have never had a problem getting a same day appointment, even late in the day. We always get a prompt call back from a nurse.
What frustrates me about some of the negative reviews is that they seem to fail to appreciate the value of a good
Doctor.
liblakeresident, for example, says ""Good Doctors, Service Not Good."" And gives one star. Really? Where are your values? I want my kids to get good care and don't mind if I deal with someone who doesn't smile and flirt with me. Honestly, does the politeness of a receptionist matter nearly as much as the health of your child? What has gotten into us as a society when we value getting our a** kissed over a good doctor???
In short, take your kids to this clinic. You may have a rough time with the front office staff at some times. I never have, but then again I don't care about this, so I may not have noticed.
Sorry if I seem a little rude and indignant. I hate to see a good clinic marred by bad reviews for bad reasons.
