Your trust is our top concern.

We strive to keep reviews honest, trustworthy, and fair.

Doctors can not pay for good reviews, nor can they pay to have negative reviews removed.

We monitor all reviews to ensure they comply with our guidelines and don’t include personal information, profanity, libel, defamation, harassment, obscenity or fraud.

Any reviews that are deemed fraudulent or violate our guidelines will be removed immediately.

All reviews are confirmed and audited before publication, and community members have the ability to flag inappropriate content for further review by our team.

We Love Dr. Kosoff
My boys have been going to Dr. Kosoff for 12yrs now. Dr. Kosoff takes the time to listen to each child when they are brought in at the same time and he has no issues with giving you a referral to a specialist if needed. His office is quick to get documentation for my kids to play sports or proof of coverage, etc.. We care pediatrics office is always clean and the staff is very kind and helpful. We were blessed to find Dr Kosoff during my search for a new pediatrician when my kids were very young. If your wait time is more than you expected, then that may be because he is spending extra time on another patient. I have always understood and had no issue following his orders. We have also had to have emergency visits and was seen the same day with no problem.

Great Staff
The staff and Dr. Kosoff are just amazing. The receptionists are always friendly and soft-spoken and the nurses are always a huge help. They know how to do their job very well. Definitely recommend 10/10.

Best pediatrics in the area!!
My son has loved and always had the greatest care under Dr. Kosoff and Ms. Stephanie, (he tells all of his stuffed animals when he’s sick) but the entire office is a blessing to our family… even pretending to take care of his toys. The staff is genuine, takes their time, goes above and beyond every single time, sits down with you on a professional level and communicates everything from head-to-toe. As a mom I want other parents to the same comfort and peace of mind as me. It’s beautiful the way they care!

Good Doctor
The doctor was good. Staff was very nice and helpful. My only complaint was the time it took to see the doctor. It was an hour after my appointment time. Next time I’ll be prepared and come with entertainment for the kids.

Great Care, Even better hospitality
Dr. Kosoff and the nurses have been great to us. Always empathic, gets to the point, and give us the best options for our needs. Apart from an occasional long wait, we have had a great experience with Dr. Kosoff.

Dr. Peter Kosoff has been the absolute worst representation of how pediatrics should be practiced. He does a great job of putting on a show in front of residents/interns and making parents feel bad on how to care for their children, extremely rude. On two separate visits he has failed to sanitize his hands or use appropriate protective measures while interacting with my child. Along with horrible care, arriving on time and even early for a SCHEDULED appointments equates to being seen by the DR. over an hour later. Parents be extremely concerned and question the methods of a doctor that carries medical tools that are used on children in a fanny pack! One star is very generous.

I called the office & they were closed but Dr. Kosoff answered the phone & told me to take my girls which had 103.5 fever, he took care of them patiently & prescribed them medicine. An awesome doctor! For 17 years has seen my kids!

My Granddaughter has been seeing Dr Kosoff for many years now. He is a very special Doctor. In this day and time when Doctors run in the door, look your child over for 5 minutes and leaves, he doesn't. He takes his time, explains everything and really cares about your child. If your in a hurry maybe this is not the right place for you, but if you want a Dr that really cares about your child, then you should go see Dr Kosoff.

Very Rude, came in to the room with a crying sick baby, and said “ I can’t work over that.” ( the crying) He should not be working with children, if a crying baby bothers him. He doesn’t even care about explaining things that are not understood.

1st off, our appointment was set for 345pm. Didn't even get to the room until 520pm. Literally!! Then he recommended BENADRYL for my daughter to take to increase her appetite. My daughter is very small for her age and had me worried..... i wanted to get professional advise on what i should do. BENADRYL is NOT the answer. After reading about it; it clearly said it "supresses your appetite" Never will i ever go back!!
