Glendale Pediatrics

Dr Paul is amazing. He is truly the best. You can tell he really loves his job. He is very compassionate and he repeats everything which is helpful when you have a sick baby and your mind is racing. I did have to wait a long time the first time I went in, but my appointment was at 5pm during the week so I expected that. I’ve walked in in the morning and was out in a half hour or less. He is very patient and thorough and his bedside manner is the best I’ve seen. I would never take my kids to anyone else! He also has an incredible memory. He gets absolutely every single detail without even looking at the notes.

Great doctors. Very friendly and shows compassion. The front desk is horrible. There is a lady that looks like a horse with long nose at the front desk that is so mean and rude. She needs to be fired. She is, the reason for me giving this office a 3 star. Should have been a 5 star.

Dr. Paul is an excellent doctor. The reason for the 3 stars is because of the staff. No smile, no greetings. But if you go to their Astoria office you get all of that and are very courteous. The Glendale office… not so much. The staff is hurting the good doctors name.

The wait to see the doctors is horrible. Made an 11 am appointment and was seen at 12:30 but didn’t seem that busy.
The staff at the reception desk needs training on looking up and smiling.
However, once in the exam room the nurse and doctor are attentive and never rush you.

It only gets better and wanted to mention… In Dr. Paul’s absence, my daughter was seen by Dr. Perez… Once again… a pleasure. He is great and my daughter was very comfortable with him. Both Dr. Paul and Dr. Perez are nothing short of amazing! Thank you again Glendale Pediatrics. A++++++

I started going to Dr. Paul as a New Patient for my Son because I heard he was an amazing Doctor. He wasnt there that day but we met Dr Perez and he was wonderful. Unfortunltlly The Front Desk Staff was horrible. My Husband went to take my Daughter as a new patient as well and they kept him waiting for over an hour and when he went to find out why it was taking so long they told him the doctor wasnt even in yet. Also they never called either of us to remind us the day before of the appointment and spent most of the time talking about men and what they were going to have for Lunch. Very rude and inappropiate. They need to learn some manners and learn to be more professional especially in the Medical Industry. I spoke to a supervior in the Astoria Office and in Glendale and they were actually very Apologetic over they experiance that we had as a result of their staff. however the damage was done and we will be going back to our old doctor. I hope they will learn that they have a job to represent the great doctors there and they are hurting the reputation of the doctors by acting they way they do infront a new patient

I’m indifferent. The drs are GREAT! We met lots of drs before our daughter was born and Dr Paul was hands down the winner. Even when Dr Paul wasn’t able to see us we met Dr Perez and he was great too. The nurses that I’ve meet have been great as well. My issue is with the girls working the desk. The are never pleasant, never helpful, and every time I speak to one of them I feel like they act like they are doing me a favor. I’ve felt this way in both offices, especially in Glendale. One of them was so nasty last time I considered looking for a new dr. Lucky for dr Paul he is amazing, hopefully he realizes how useless they are so he can have the amazing offices he deserves.

The doctor is great. We really like him and are comfortable with him. The wait time is horrendous. Every time we have to wait at least an hour after our scheduled appointment to see the doctor. The waiting room is just decent. A little barren and banged up. Plus, if there is an elevator, I’ve never seen it. You have to carry your stroller down a flight of stairs.

I cannot say enough wonderful things about this Dr… He is friendly, patient and excellent with the children. He was born to be a Pediatrician. The main Dr. is Apostolis Tsoumpariotis (Dr. Paul).
We have been going to his Astoria office for about 4 years now and the wait time has never been an issue… If a child is sick, it is understandable, there may be a wait, but they will always see your child… And he is worth it…
I have never felt rushed or misguided… My baby was sick during last winter and were given a nebulizer in the office and we received a phone call on New Years Eve at 11:40 pm to check in… The few times I have called the answering service, he has called back within minutes…
I can appreciate his expertise and professionalism… My kids love him and his staff! I hope he will be our Pediatrician until they are grown:-)

Writing this review is very easy for me. Dr. Paul is truly an amazing pediatrician and for me, simply God sent.
I chose a previous pediatrician for my daughter that was highly recommended and known in the neighborhood. I was convinced that this doctor would be my daughter’s doctor until she’s 21! However, visit after visit, and co-​payment after co-​payment, my daughter’s croupe was never improving nor going away, yet, the waiting room and exam rooms got fancier and fancier. As a new parent, I had a list of questions that were just dismissed as, «Oh, don’t worry about it, give it time.» Finally, after endless, sleepless nights, I listened to my dear sister. «Go to Doctor Paul, trust me, you’ll like him.» Well, she was right. I could not have asked for such a wonderful, idealistic doctor for my daughter. He knows her by name, not by «Princess» or «Sweetie». At a young age of 3, she has already established a patient/​doctor relationship with him. She looks forward to her visits with him, even when she’s sick. If she coughs, she automatically says, «We need to call Dr. Paul.»
Though I have never waited in the office for more than an hour, I must say, I wouldn’t mind at all. I have never been rushed out of the exam room. My many, many questions are always answered thoroughly and with respect. Dr. Paul has his time with my daughter, and equally shares his time with me, as the concerned parent.
As you can see, I am very satisfied with my decision to switch doctors.
On a side note, his nurses are great as well. Nurse Chris surely has a way with the kids. Always a pleasure.
Hope this review was helpful.

Dr. Paul is a great pediatrician but the front desk help is terrible. They girls are not professional and not helpful. They need a course on customer service training. I give Dr. Paul a 4 star but reception desk a onestar.

Dr, Paul is the best peds. around. Im very picky about my doctors, espically when it comes to my children. Dr. Paul and his staff are a god sent. There very sweet and understanding adn caring. They treat each patient as they were there own. It’s rare to hear or see crying kids. Dr. Paul likes to be silly with the kids and with the parents he gives them all updated info. on whatever the situation is. Never rushes you out! The staff is wonderful and very kind friendly– so is the office– adroable office.
