Uptown Pediatrics reviews from NYC families
Families who've grown up with us: some of our patients now bring their own children to the doctors who cared for them. Here's what parents have shared about Uptown Pediatrics.
“Highly recommend, exceptional personalized care and seamless front desk operation.”
“Dr. Klein, is the best all my girls love her. We come from Brooklyn special for her!!! We'd give her 10 stars if we could!”
“Dr. Alpert is warm, honest, detailed and an expert in her field. She listens to us and brings a lot of calm to the new world of parenting. The nurses are also exemplary overall great doctors and nurses.”
“Love the team at Uptown Pediatrics! Would not take our kids anywhere else.”
“We were referred by my husbands brother, who's two grown daughters were patients of Dr. Murphy since they were children. Our son was 6 weeks old when we decided to give Uptown Pediatrics a try. By far it has been the best experience! I immediately had my other two children's medical care transferred over as well. They have been nothing but helpful and informative from the very beginning. The front desk has never given me a hard time, even when I request documents at the very last minute, they are always prompt. The medical assistants are caring, lovable and patient, even with my toddler. We are never turned down for an appointment, even when we have had last minute emergencies or concerns. Dr. Murphy was my children's doctor, until his unfortunate passing. We have switched over to Dr. Larsen. But honestly it does not matter which doctor treats my children, because they are ALL wonderful. The entire staff has been nothing but incredible to me and my family and we will continue to receive their care, until all of my children are adults : )”
“Dr. Alpert has been amazing with my 3 babies. She is very reassuring and thorough. The practice is very responsive to after hours sick calls and the staff is so friendly. All the medical assistants are so professional and patient. They know my babies by first name. I will definitely recommend Dr.Alpert and the practice.”
“Everyone is so helpful and kind, super professional! Everything is kept clean and providers see the patients at scheduled time. Dr. Alpert is amazing! Ruby at the front desk is great also she is always trying her best to help out and schedule all appointments in a timely manner. I'd highly recommend bringing your children here!”
“We have been coming to Uptown Pediatrics since my son was born in 2007, under the amazing care of Dr. John Larsen and Nurse Stephanie. The entire team is professional, thorough and kind. We moved to Westchester in 2019, but keep coming to Uptown pediatrics.”
“The front desk is always so friendly, helpful, & efficient. The nurses are lovely, understanding & effective. Dr Klein is simply the best. She totally understands my son & has a terrific sense of humor. Thank you!!!!!”
“The best of the best! We have been coming to uptown pediatrics for too many years to count. Dr. Klein has treated all our children- and there are no words to describe the phenomenal care we get. She is so knowledgeable and follows up on every detail. She has taken care of so many different medical issues with confidence and capability. The staff is terrific. From the lovely front desk that constantly helps us with appointments and the incredible techs that always have a smile- we are so lucky to be a part of this practice. Wish I could leave 10 stars!”
“Amazing place, with specialists who make us feel seen and heard. Staff that make our young daughter feel safe. At reception, staff like Ruby and Kaya go out of their way to help our 3 year old get through rough visits like needing blood work done.”
“As a mother of two autistic children, I have experienced many different specialist offices. Not many like this practice though. From the front desk to the medical assistants and all the way up to the doctor- Everyone was absolutely amazing!! I love how colorful, bright, and playful the office looks. Dr. Wu was so amazing to us. She was very thorough with our visit and took her time explaining everything us. She answered all the questions we had and never made us feel rushed. Uptown pediatrics you guys are an amazing team!”
“My daughter is 10 now and she's been with Dr. Cerasoli and Dr. Alpert since she was 5 months old. I can't ask for better caring, humble, supportive doctors and personnel. They always listen and don't judge even the minutest fears, and they've been very supportive through our triumphs and special needs. They always go above and beyond for their patients.”
“I have been bringing my daughter to this practice for over 15 years and there is nowhere else I would trust with her care.”
“Dr. Larsen saved my son's life a few years ago when he got a rare form of cellulitis on his foot at camp.”
“I've been taking my daughter here for 3 years to see Dr. Cohen. I've had a great experience at this office and I'm happy to share that! My daughter loves all the toys, books & the fish tank in the waiting room. Very nice people here!”
“I am extremely satisfied and grateful for the pediatricians in this office!”
“I have both my children seen here. Uptown Pediatrics has had my kids since they were 3 days old, and 16 years later we're still here with the same doctors and staff.”
“Dr. Alpert has always been responsive and great with my three daughters for the past several years.”
“I have been a part of Uptown Pediatrics since I was a little girl. I am now 33 with 2 kids. I am happy that my children can get the same great doctors I got as a child. The nurses are great at their career and know how to handle kids and grown ups…”
“Dr. Alpert is amazing! My son just adores her.”
