Hear from our families

they are open on the weekends.

While I am not pleased the with wait times, I am still giving it 5 stars for the following two reasons: 1) Dr. Christian Irias and 2) they are open on the weekends. Dr. Irias takes the time to listen to the concerns and addresses them all on the spot. There are many times where I have been hesitant on something, but his explanations makes me more at ease of making the correct decisions. It is worth the wait time to see him. I have also had a great experience with Dr. Marco Castillo Ayarza. I am also very happy that they are open the weekends as there have been times where the care is needed and it is much better than waiting or having to go to an urgent care.

my son has regained his trust in medical centers thanks to him.

(Translated by Google) Hello, this medical center is excellent. From the receptionists and nurses to the doctors, everyone is wonderful. Dr. Christian, in particular, is an excellent professional—warm, empathetic, and accurate in his diagnoses and treatments. He has the patience to explain everything in detail to us parents. My 5-year-old son has regained his trust in medical centers thanks to him. He's no longer afraid to go when he's sick and always wants to see him. They also perform flu tests and other screenings there, and they have overtime hours on certain days of the week. Thank you for everything; please don't lose that warmth and empathy. Look at the lovely little gesture they made for my son on his last visit—it brought a smile to his face even in the midst of his discomfort. (Original) Hola, este centro médico es excelente. Desde sus recepcionista, enfermeras hasta sus médicos. Especialmente el Dr Christian, es un excelente profesional, cálido, empático y asertivo en sus diagnóstico y tratamientos y tiene la paciencia de explicar a detalle todo a nosotros como papás.. mi hijo de 5 años, recuperó la confianza en los centros médicos gracias a él, ya no teme ir cuando está enfermo y siempre quiere atenderse con él.. además allí mismo le realizan examen de flu y otros y tienen atención overtime ciertos días de la semana. Gracias por todo, no pierdan esa calidez humana y empatía. Miren el detalle tan lindo que le hicieron a mi hijo en su última visita, le sacó una sonrisa en medio de su malestar

incredibly kind, patient, and always have the best sense of humor.

I cannot say enough good things about Dr. Christian Irias and Doris Aguilar. I have two children, and both of them absolutely love them. They are incredibly kind, patient, and always have the best sense of humor, which makes my kids feel comfortable and safe at every visit. As a parent, that means everything to me. My children don’t want to be seen by any other doctor, only them. And honestly, I wouldn’t change them for anyone else. If they ever leave Pediatric & Associates, I will follow them wherever they go without hesitation. We are so grateful to have providers who genuinely care, listen, and treat our kids like their own. Truly the best.

We left feeling reassured, supported, and confident in the plan he recommended.

We are extremely grateful for the care our pediatrician provided to my daughter during a recent stomachache. He took the time to listen carefully, evaluated her thoroughly, and explained everything with such patience and kindness. What we appreciated most was how attentive he was not only to the physical symptoms, but also to her emotional well-being. We left feeling reassured, supported, and confident in the plan he recommended. Truly compassionate and excellent care.

We like to visit the Doral location thanks to their convenient after hours schedule. We take our children to see Dr. Castillo Ayarza.
