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 King have been taking care of my granddaughter since birth. She is almost 15 years old. I can't say enough about the quality of care received at every single visit. Dr King and her staff are very attentive, kind and results oriented. It saddens me to realize my granddaughter will soon age out of her care. Dr King is an excellent pediatrician.

I love this lady! I started off with a horrible pediatrician , and ended up leaving them to come to her. She spotted several things the other doctor had missed. She always plays on the side of caution and has me get anything questionable checked out. She remembers everything about me and my kids . Shes very friendly amd energetic, and my kids love her!!

Dr.Pilgrim-King and her Staff been amazing to me and my two kids, we love her. We have been going to her for over 2 years now. I trust her with everything. She explains everything to us in detail. She doesn't make you feel stupid when you ask her questions. She listens to your concerns and never rushes her visit during any time of the day. Her staff is always helpful and calls us back in a timely manner. I high recommend her to anyone looking for a pediatric doctor you can trust because SHE'S #1

Long waits. Some have been over an hour in the waiting room and another half hour once inside the room. Had to open the door and ask once, and was rudely told they'll come in a bit. Rude female when calling the office. Dr. uses a I-don't-believe-you accusatory type of tone when answering her wellness check questions. She isn't friendly, isn't informative, and doesn't even take the time to interact with the kids. She's in and out in like 5 minutes.
