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.

Dr. Pizarro is very thorough, has excellent clinical skills and is wonderful with children. She was able to diagnose a cancer in my child and immediately connect us to the necessary specialists to expedite the treatment without delay. You can tell she really cares. Whenever we have a sick child we get in right away, and we never wait long to be seen. Her staff is great with children. Their answering service is very efficient. I am very glad we found this practice.

Dr. Pizarro is a wonderful Pediatrician. I found her while looking for a doctor for my first baby. Even without yet having a patient, she took her time with l me and my husband, to answer all our questions as expectant parents. When I was a first time mom she made sure that I always felt heard and understood, and would explain things about my baby to me without judgment or rush. As my baby grew, started daycare and we started encountering sicknesses, we were always able to come to her quickly enough that we did not need to seek care elsewhere. If we have questions after hours, we call her office and get a call back really quickly as well. She is very thorough and knowledgeable, and she takes her time with each kid and family no matter how busy the office is. Her staff is wonderful as well. I recommend this office every chance I get. I love them so much that I am now bringing a second newborn :-)

Dr Pizarro is the best pediatrician on the planet. She has treated my babies since birth over 8 years. She is attentive, brilliant, kind, and so caring. When you leave a message, Dr Pizarro calls you back, not a MA. She follows through with everything. She stays on top of her patients health. Love her !!!

We LOVE Dr Sandra Pizarro Lopez and I recommend her to everyone I can whenever I can! Her and her staff are amazing. She listens to my kids, doesn't rush them & is playful with them has a great personality. My oldest son (almost 5) broke his collarbone we went to her because we needed a referral for Tricare! When she got his report and saw his x-rays from the hospital her sense of urgency was unreal. She was so concerned and put in everything Stat! Wasted no time made sure I knew the severity of this and made sure I understood what's on the table for treatment. So I wasn't blindsided by anything. We live on Merritt Island so we are about 20-25 mins way and I'd drive further to see her!

Dr. Pizarro- Lopez is the best pediatrician I've seen. My son is special needs and she is phenomenal with him. She takes her time and checks things that no other doctor has yet checked. Dr Pizarro actually listens to my concerns and genuinely cares for my family, calls to check on them and is very timely when returning paperwork that I request. FIVE stars for this awesome doctor!!
