Ybelise Baez enough for being empathetic, kind and thoughtful.

I can’t thank Ybelise Baez enough for being empathetic, kind and thoughtful. My daughter was at Pediatric asso on Sheridan st. Hollywood for vaccines and didn't drink/eat much that day. Ybelise went out her way to offer and give my daughter fluids to assure she would be ok. She deserves to be recognized for going ABOVE and BEYOND her job description! Thank you Ybelise!

She truly loves my kids and care for their well-being!

Pediatrics Associates is amazing. My children have been seen Alana Ginsberg since they were born. I cannot imagine taking them anywhere else. She truly loves my kids and care for their well-being! Once you find the right doctor, you’ll stay with them forever.

Yahaira V.

she was phenomenal.

We had an appointment for an ADHD evaluation for my 9-year-old with Dr. Dale Garber, MD, FAAP, and she was phenomenal. She was incredibly patient, kind, and caring, and truly took the time to listen and understand my concerns. Although there was a lengthy wait time, Dr. Garber made it completely worth the wait with the quality of care and attention she provided. We never felt rushed, and her approach put both my child and me at ease. Highly recommend.

Even after moving to Coral Springs, I still make the drive to the Hollywood office because this team is simply the best.

I’ve been a loyal patient of this pediatrician’s office for 15 years with both of my kids, and I truly couldn’t ask for better care. The doctors and staff are absolutely amazing—kind, professional, attentive, and they genuinely care about my children. The office is always clean and well organized, which gives me so much peace of mind as a parent. Even after moving to Coral Springs, I still make the drive to the Hollywood office because this team is simply the best. That alone says everything. Highly recommend to any parent looking for a pediatric office they can trust long-term.
