needed to find a new pediatrician.
We just moved to the area and needed to find a new pediatrician. Dr. Chiong was very personable and thorough. I have a special needs child and he was able to obtain all the info he needed by observing and asking her questions. She likes him very much and will be happy to see him again.

outstanding - attentive, knowledgeable, and patient.
We recently moved to the area in March, and I was worried about finding quality healthcare for my kids. Luckily, I discovered this exceptional children's clinic when my daughter needed urgent care this morning. From the moment we walked in, the three female staff members were incredibly welcoming and efficient, quickly setting us up in the system. Dr. Tedder, Jessica, was outstanding - attentive, knowledgeable, and patient with my daughter's questions. The care we received was top-notch, and I couldn't be more grateful. If I could give this clinic a 10-star rating, I would! Highly recommended for any family seeking compassionate and expert healthcare.

Thorough and yet very relaxed well visits, kids left and said they loved the Dr. It’s always good when they trust their provider and we do too.

thanks to the extra effort of this practice.
A child’s health is not always predictable, especially at the start of the school year, but it’s great to know that there are doctors and nurses who understand, and will do whatever they can to help. Physicians for Children squeezed our very sick 1.5 year old in for a sick visit. Dr Chiong took his time to answer our questions and give her a thorough examination. We were able to get her the antibiotics and treatment that she needed in the same day, thanks to the extra effort of this practice. Highly, highly recommend.
