It was our first visit after switching over from Optum Monarch (they don't have a pediatrician anymore). The front desk staff, the medical staff and the doctor were all very courteous, very patient, and spent sufficient time with us. We came back the second day with additional requests (excuse notes; yellow card records etc.) and were met with the same level of care. I really appreciate everyone in the office; and I'm happy my kids are now part of PIH. Thank you!

The medical assistant is very rude. Having attitude, that's all my comments. The girl medical assistant is being rude and having attitude. Thank you.

Our daughter was really nervous to be at the Doctor's but Dr Tellez did such a great job making her comfortable. We really appreciated how he explained and interacted with us.

Dr. Tellez and his staff respect the parent's opinion and allows for the parent to be the child's advocate....all while giving clear explanations for all things related to the decision making. This is rare these days! Dr Tellez is a gem and any family that has him as their doctor should consider themselves blessed!

Dr. Tellez us very professional yet very caring he spoke to my daughter in a very friendly and very educated way. He explained to me to everything and also included my daughter. He made sure to treat her with respect and I appreciate him for not treating her like the child she is. But like a growing teen. I love Dr. Tellez for his kindness and for taking his time to address all my concerns and for not having one foot inside the room and the other outside. I was recommended to him by a family friend years ago and I am eternally grateful they did. I was asked why I drive so far he's just a pediatrician. We'll he's one of the best, that's why and if I had to drive miles and miles I would he's worth it

The receptionist forgot to provide me a proxy form to access my child's records, since she is a minor, so therefore I cannot see her results from our doctor's visit. This should be standard procedure for every parent/minor visit. Now I have to visit the office again and take time out of my schedule to go into the office and fill out the proxy form. Minor inconvenience, but to overlook something as simple as this is concerning.

The medical building itself was outdated, but clean. My experience was very positive and I am glad to have met Dr. Tellez and know that I can trust him with my child's care needs if and when her primary pediatrician is not available.

The facility is old and dirty. Windows have film peeling off and broken blinds. Walls have liquid stains dripping down hidden by the bed. Spiderwebs in the walls next to the bed. The rooms look like they are either never cleaned or very sloppily cleaned.
