I have already told my group of friends that if they ever need a pediatric GI they need to see Dr. Best. One of my friends will be scheduling soon!

★★★★★

Dr Best walked in the door and just impressed us. He did great including both the child and parents in the conversation, especially paying attention that my child was comfortable in the setting. He asked a bunch of questions and gave us amazing insight on what was going on. He explained things so clearly. We have already recommended him to a bunch of our friends.

★★★★★

Chrisangel was AMAZING!

★★★★★

Oct 16, 2021

From my first phone call to schedule an appointment I have been nothing but impressed. As a new patient I could get in within 2 weeks, unheard of when seeing a specialist. I got reminder text and email. And the day of when we arrived the first person we interacted with was great. Got us all checked in quickly. Chrisangel was amazing when she took us back to our exam room and was just so good at interacting with my child and me. Dr Best came in about 2 minutes later. And WOW! So happy with this office!

★★★★★

Oct 15, 2021

It was only difficult to schedule the appointment because the referral from the PCP took too long to get into the system.

★★★★★

Chrisangel, Dr. Best, and the front desk ladies are all wonderful.

★★★★★

Sep 13, 2021

Dr. Best was amazing! The front staff however, weren't very welcoming ..I was a new patient .. I wasn't greeted when I walked in & the staff seemed pretty unprofessional by just talking to one another instead of dealing with me.

★★★★★

Sep 11, 2021

Dr. Best was amazing

★★★★★

Sep 8, 2021

I'd recommend Dr. Best and his scheduler, Kim to all my friends amd family, but the rest of the staff I encountered didn't meet anywhere near their level of professionalism. I'd rate Kim and Dr. Best a 5 though, The front office staff a 1, and ChrisAngel a 3.

★★★★★

Sep 8, 2021

She was very informative, just no smiles on her face either.

★★★★★

Sep 8, 2021

Staff not very friendly and no smiles on anyone's faces. Nothing towards me as a person, but just noticed it was like this with everyone who walked into the practice.

★★★★★

Sep 8, 2021

Once I was in the back, the back office staff was wonderful. Dr. Best's name says it's all. He is the best! Also, Kim was OUTSTANDING!

★★★★★

Sep 5, 2021

We arrived early for our appointment to complete the paperwork, as requested. They actually had us in a room and talking to the doctor a few minutes before our scheduled appointment time.

★★★★★

Sep 1, 2021

Great communication! Thank you for the house coffee.

★★★★★

Jul 31, 2021

All staff were friendly, welcoming to clinic as it was a fast visit, Dr.Best explained what process was going to be taken & why which I liked as normally not given option with other physicians.

★★★★★

Jul 27, 2021

One of the best medical experiences we have had in a long time. Thank you!

★★★★★

Jul 27, 2021

Dr. Best was amazing. I really appreciated how he showed he wants to get to the root cause of the problem, instead of just giving a medication and sending us on our way. He made sure we made it on his surgery schedule right away so my daughter can be on her way to relief, sooner rather than later.

★★★★★

Jul 27, 2021

Everyone at the front desk was exceptionally nice and courteous.

★★★★★

Jul 27, 2021

Scheduling the new patient appointment was really easy. The scheduler was super nice and scheduled my daughter's appointment for the same week.

★★★★★

Jul 16, 2021

Again, we were shocked to see staff not wearing masks at registration.

★★★★★

Jul 16, 2021

Dr Best took us seriously and described his approach thoroughly and in a way we could understand. He took time to answer our questions and we never felt rushed.

★★★★★

Jul 16, 2021

Staff was very polite, but we were shocked to see a number of staff NOT wearing masks behind the desk, even though that's the mandated policy for even entering the building. We asked about it and were told "oh they just got in this morning". That made no sense to us and it was disappointing to see.

★★★★★

Jul 16, 2021

I appreciated being able to do all the paperwork and payment online before the appt

★★★★★

Jul 2, 2021

Would definitely recommend to anyone to come here!

★★★★★

Jul 2, 2021

Our nurse was extremely kind and listened to all of us.

★★★★★

Jul 2, 2021

The office staff were very kind and tentative with both myself, husband and son. They answered all the questions we had quick with getting us back to the room. Overall such a good experience!

★★★★★

I WILL TELL EVERYONE MOM I KNOW THEY NEED TO SEE DR BEST for their children's needs!

★★★★★

Jun 9, 2021

EVERYTHING was so clean and tidy!

★★★★★

Jun 9, 2021

Dr gave enough information about our options then their opinion on which was might be best and why. Answered all my questions and and even my sons questions to where he understood but it didnt sound too intense (he needs to have an out patient care procedure).

★★★★★

Jun 9, 2021

CANNOT SAY ENOUGH HOW SWEET ALL THE STAFF WAS!!!! Phenomenal!!!

★★★★★

Jun 9, 2021

AMAZING STAFF! Every person in there was so kind and just the absolute best to my boys. My oldest was the one being seen and was very nervous but Dr Best was so sweet and calmed all his worries and explained everything in a professional manner but not talking down to him like some adults do to kids.

★★★★★

Jun 4, 2021

Everyone was friendly and seemed genuinely happy to be there. I wish all physicians offices worked and felt like this one.

★★★★★

Jun 4, 2021

Dr. Best was great. We arrived after having little assistance from our PCP and were emotionally drained from fighting this condition for months. Dr. Best was involved and determined to diagnose Abby even if her issue was not within his specialty. To know you have a doctor on your side that isnt going to find answers for your child lifts a huge weight off.

★★★★★

Jun 4, 2021

He was great. We felt listened to and heard by the nurse and he showed genuine concern for my daughter's health situation.

★★★★★

Jun 4, 2021

I appreciate the ability to complete everything online rather than filling out paperwork in the office.

★★★★★

Jun 4, 2021

Kayden in the front office was great at communicating with me prior to my appointment to try to get my daughter scheduled sooner. I felt he went above and beyond to meet my requests. It was surprising to experience that level of attention from a physicians staff.

★★★★★

May 27, 2021

He was so nice and took the time to speak to us to ensure everything was understood. He was confident in his ability to fix the problem.

★★★★★

May 27, 2021

So great!

★★★★★

May 21, 2021

Kim, Mario, Cristella and Dr. Best showed me they cared and doncern with getting to the problem of what is going on. I will definitely recommend this office. Great Job!

★★★★★

May 21, 2021

May 21, 2021

Cristella follow up call this morning -- AMAZING

★★★★★

May 21, 2021

no wait was check-in waited 2min , then taken back and Dr was ready to see the moment Mario walked out

★★★★★

May 21, 2021

Kim was amazing on helping me get scheduled, Mario/ Cristella was amazing MA,s and made us feel so comfortable, understanding, then Dr. Best is even more amazing. I know this road of me going there with my daughter is not over. But I am happy to I know I have them on my side helping me through this tough time.

★★★★★

Best Dr I've seen in a while. He listened and very thorough. Great bedside manner

★★★★★

May 10, 2021

Excellent experience with staff and physician

★★★★★

May 2, 2021

M.A. asked my daughter ' what's wrong, you look sad' after my daughter answering depression questions as all "No's'. It was like he was trying to say she's lying or hiding something when he can't even see her expression when she had a mask on and he doesn't know her. That was wrong what he did.

★★★★★

Apr 22, 2021

We love Dr. Best and his entire staff.

★★★★★

Apr 15, 2021

We will be letting our pediatrician know so that she can continue to recommend your office! We have already been sharing with everyone how great our appt. went and will continue!

★★★★★

Apr 15, 2021

above and beyond what I expected. my daughter commented that she felt like that was one of the first times someone really listened to her!

★★★★★

Apr 15, 2021

Oh my word! BEST appt. EVER! We felt like he LISTENED to everything we said, and therefore he understood! He explained everything and for the first time, in 8 years, we had HOPE!

★★★★★

Apr 15, 2021

The most efficient registration process EVER! I wasn't asked to repeat things 3 times!

★★★★★

Apr 15, 2021

the friendliness of the front office staff was amazing! we felt welcomed and safe.

★★★★★

Apr 8, 2021

The best part was being reassured that we would find the root cause to my son's constant discomfort.

★★★★★

Apr 8, 2021

This was our first visit and we were pleasantly surprised. No long waiting in the waiting room or exam room. We were able to be seen less than 10 of making an appointment.
