Seema Latif MD has been working as a Pediatrician for nearly 20 years. As a Pediatrician and a mother, Dr. Latif understands how stressful doctor visits can be, and she works hard every day to help patients and their families feel at home. Dr. Latif originally studied Ophthalmology in Pakistan, but after moving to the United States and raising three children she decided to change her medical focus to Pediatrics. Dr. Latif says she likes Pediatrics because it gives her the opportunity to help parents by keeping children healthy. “I see a lot of nervous families, and people who just want their children to feel alright”, says Dr. Latif. “As a mother of three children, I understand what that's like because I've had that experience.” Dr. Latif has lived in Downey for many years and has put down roots in the community. In her free time, Dr. Latif loves to garden and work on crafts projects.

We love Dr. Latif and her staff/nurses. They treat us very well and have so much patience for our 3 young children

The doctor was very dry and unconcerned about what concerns we had.

Clean offices, friendly staff but to see an allergist I have to Wait 4 months That's insanity

The Lab was along wait. She was not able to draw blood. She tried both arms. We waited an hour and not worth the wait.

Hello, I just wanted to say thank you. I'm really happy with the staff and the provider. They always take good care of my daughter. Any concerns, all the questions, take the time to make sure everything is okay, the patients with a smile. I would definitely recommend my family to take their kids there. Thank you so much for the patience and the quality time they dedicate to my daughter when I take her.

To make the appointment, it was good, but when I arrived, the people that take the patients, the girl was really rude. She said she had a bad day, so I let that go. And with the doctor, her assistant was also a little bit rude. Doctor was doing a good job, but I guess she didn't spend that much time with us. And besides that, I have nothing else to say.

This location is located in a very busy mall which is very difficult to find. We were late and the doctor saw us less than 3 minutes and when I asked if my daughter could have immunization shots, she replied that I was late and the staff needs to go to lunch and eat. I was very surprised at her reply When she did see my daughter quickly about the rash on her face. She did not look at her closely or even touch her face. Just from far said to us it's sunburn. It was just so odd. I hope someone could call so I can further explain Thank you

Office staff, nurse, lab technician were all courteous and professional. My grandson 19months old was treated well by all. Thank you! They made a stressful situation comfortable for me.

Great staff, very friendly have daughters confidence. Dr. explained everything being done and gave good advice to my daughters.

I think you can improve the service by having or bringing back the lab at the actual site where the child is being seen rather than having to go to a different site and getting the lab work that needs to be done because it's very time consuming trying to schedule another appointment and have the child fasting for a different date. So that would be really helpful.

Made an appointment for my sudden toddlers loss of appetite, appointment was pretty much useless, paid $35 for a 5 min visit with no reasurance that my son is ok and just to be told to wait it out and that it's nothing to worry about. No blood test nothing that helped with the reason I was there for.
March 08, 2024
I felt that my concerns were not heard. I felt like the Dr wanted to make a quick diagnosis and send me on my way.
February 15, 2024
I really liked the medical assistant that took my son's vitals before seeing the doctor. Her bedside manner towards my little one was so caring and she was a clear and respectful communicator to me and my husband. The scheduling person is not the most respectful and sometimes doesn't seem to listen and/or provide good information when you need help scheduling. She sounds mad/has an unfriendly demeanor every time I call. I almost want to pick a different medical office but I really appreciate the close proximity of this office to my home and the expertise of the Pediatric physicians available there. I will be returning to the office but will continue to assess if the service meets my family's needs and values

The provider did not feel welcoming and it was not comfortable to ask my questions at all
