I was at Happy Kids Pediatrics in Tempe for over a year. The office staff was always nice but every appointment there took almost 2 hours. The first issue was when my daughter was 2.5 years old, she had a fever for about 7 days and a stuffy nose, I brought her in twice and on the second visit the doctor said, ""She is on the verge of getting better"". Well the next day she had a higher fever and green ooze out of her eyes, I had to take her to urgent care who told me she had a massive sinus infection. So, fine, I put that aside...at age 4 she went in for her well child check up...She is an epileptic with uncontrolled seizures and they gave her the pertussis vaccine which causes seizures in a child like her. (unfortunately I didn't research beforehand) She had 2 seizures the next day both lasting 10 minutes. I brought her in after the first one because she also had a cough and the doctor said,"" she was the picture of perfect health."" That evening after her second seizure we brought her to the ER, not only was the vaccine affecting her but she also had strep and croup along with a 102 degree fever. ....2 things and the doctor tells me she is the picture of perfect health... what a joke!!!
Pros: nice office staff
Cons: dont' know a sick child from a hole in the wall
