El lugar es excelente.

(Translated by Google) My wife is close to giving birth, and we went to ask for information. The place is excellent, and the service is fantastic. We were very happy. There are doctors and nurses who speak Spanish. We were seen by Cristina Bargione, who immediately conveyed her excellent service and passion for her work. We highly recommend her. We've included her photo so you can find her. (Original) Mi esposa está cerca al parto y fuimos a pedir información. El lugar es excelente y la atención es buenísima. Quedamos contentos. Hay doctoras y enfermeras que hablan español. Nos atendió Cristina Bargione. Y de inmediato nos trasmitió su buen servicio y el amor por su trabajo. La recomendamos 100% . Le dejamos su foto para que la ubiquen.

this is my favorite location.

It was my last day as a Peds patient (i’m turning 22) the front desk was so kind to me as i came in without an appointment for hives that just randomly popped up due to some reaction for i don’t know what. I was already having a horrible day coming from school and just being so itchy all of a sudden anyways—I wish I caught her name in the front desk but she was around the same age as me and she wears glasses. But they made space for me to see a doctor—Dr.Harnisth to be precise! My favorite Doctor so far and i’ve going to pediatric associates all my life. I have to say this is my favorite location due to the fact that they even though their schedule was seriously tight they still made space for me to see someone. I cried so bad ( because i was so happy and grateful). It’s so heartwarming to know there’s still good people out here that will go out of their ways to show kindness even though they don’t really have too. I really appreciate this locations team so much, because they didn’t have too, but still did. Thank you! I will be bringing my other family members here ❤️
