    I actually really like bringing my son to see Dr. Ferrer because he's always really fun and very enthusiastic. He's very caring and understanding, and he always plays with my son, making the visit a lot more easy and more enjoyable, definitely, for my son because he's not as scared, you know, having to be at a doctor's office because it doesn't feel like we're in a doctor's office. So we definitely will be seeing Dr. Ferrer again. Thank you. Have a great day.

    The doctor himself was polite and timely. The only thing that took the longest was my son being seen as we signed in on time to be seen before the appointment time. But everyone that showed up after us was called to the back. But I know that you get seen by different doctors at different times. So I want to take that into account before saying the experience was a zero. The experience overall every time I go there is Usually I'm on time for the light. So I would just say that it was just weird to see everyone comment after me. It called before, but I do know that we had a specific doctor.

    Always seen in timely manner. Dr. Ferrer always has such good bedside manner and listens to concerns. If something is outside of his scope of the providers office, he says so respectfully and always points us in the right direction. We went for a mental health issue and he was willing to listen and discuss next steps to get my son to the right provider.

    I just wish the pediatrician open again on Saturday, my kids having a fever on Friday, and I have to wait a whole weekend for her the see the doctor on Monday. She still have a fever Monday morning and luckily there is availability. If you open on Saturday, my kid would be heal during weekend. Most kid having a fever the end of weekday and I hope doctor office understands that they needed during weekend.

    Dr. Ferrer is the best around. I DO NOT think it is the place of a doctor office to ask a child if they feel safe. I am a teacher, and I think this is highly inappropriate for this to be asked of children when they are there with their parents. Children do not understand those words and what that means. Well I have no concern about my child, I have worked with children for over 27 years and know that things they say can be misconstrued. Let parents parent. The doctors office doesn't need to.

    Dr. Ferrer is the absolute best and I couldn't ask for a better pediatrician for my son. As a first time mom I've had many questions and he always takes the time to sit down and reassure me of everything I may be concerned about. 10 out of 10 would definitely recommend him to anyone.

    My daughter loves Dr Ferrer. She always looks forward to her checkups with him even if she's not feeling well or getting shots. He is friendly and makes her feel at ease. He does a great job of including her in the treatment plan and visit. He's very intentional about asking her the questions about her health and speaking to her about her visit in an age appropriate manner.

    He answered all my questions. He was very kind and patient. He interacted with both of my children, one of them being seen and the other one that wasn't. Explained everything into detail to where I knew exactly what I needed to do and how to fix her. I mean, he heard better than everything. Very happy. Would highly recommend to someone else.
