Angela Allevato, MD

I can’t say enough about how wonderful Dr. Allevato and her team have been for our family. We have two children and have been patients for almost 4 years. Unfortunately, our daughter has had to spend a lot of time at the doctor because she was born with a birth defect. However, we have always felt like Dr Allevato has gone above and beyond to make sure we are given the best care, including calling on the weekends or late at night to check in. Also, if one of the kids is sick, they are always able to squeeze us in last minute. I highly recommend her to any family.

Dr Allevato is an incredible pediatrician and a wonderful person. We have a 6 month old and feel very lucky to have found her. She made sure to answer all of our questions and we never felt rushed. You can tell she loves her work and it shows in her wonderfully caring attitude.
Staff is great as well! Office is very clean. Can’t say enough good things.

My daughter saw Dr. Allevato when she was first born. I absolutely loved her then, and now that we no longer live in Southern California, I can say I appreciate her even more now that I can’t find a doctor that can compare to her!!! I never had to wait an extended period of time. Staff was always so friendly and understanding. Love the desperate waiting areas for sick/​well children. Dr. Allevato is thorough, but timely. I also love that I never felt like she ever tried over medicating my child. I just took my daughter in to her current pediatrician today for a really bad cough (I figured she would prescribe a RX cough syrup) but instead I have antibiotics for possible whooping cough (my daughter is fully vaccinated) and an inhaler (which seemed odd, because my daughter isn’t wheezing or having a hard time breathing). Today just really made me wish we were still close enough to see Dr. Allevato!!! Highly recommended.

My 3 kids have been going to doctor Allevato for over 12 years. My oldest has Down Syndrome and has frequent visits to their office (my second home). I can’t say enough about Dr. Allevato and her staff. They are very accommodating, very caring, very thorough, very quick in turning paperwork around, and my kids really enjoy going there! I trust their care! They listen and act on the concerns of the parent. (refreshing) I would never go anywhere else. Their office will have my kids as patients until they are adults!

Just moved into the area & got a recommendation to see Dr. Allevato. My two kids needed to be seen for conjunctivitis & we were able to get in same day (saved us a trip to Urgent Care). The office staff was friendly & we were seen by another great Pediatrician. We hope to continue on as patients in this office.

Dr Allevato gets 20 stars in my book. Before she had her own practice I took my kids to an office she worked at. There was clearly something wrong and no one would help. She overheard my daughter screaming and came out of her examining room to see what was wrong. She sent her in for an X-​ray. Thank god she did because unfortunately for us she had a cancerous tumor on her tailbone. If it wasn’t for her listening to me it might have been too late for us. Today my daughter is 17 years old and will be graduating from high school in June and will be in remission 10years this fall.

My wife and I have been coming since our 19 month old was born so you can tell how long we have been coming lol. Her and her staff are great! They are all nice and helpful and make you feel welcome. I’ve been to dr’s before that I like but the staff is rude or rushed but this staff is different they are all so nice! Our good friends told us about dr allevato and my coworker as well brings his kids. We wouldn’t think of going anywhere else they even know our sons name! She has a blue book that is awesome and give us all the tools and tips we need to know in order to take the best care of our little one. And despite what the other man said with the bad review whenever our child is sick they have always seen us even last minute without an appointment. They have never turned away our son away when he was sick! If you need a pediatrician please please please go to this office! They truly are the best! They are knowledgeable and great with children. I have not heard a complaint about them! Again they are the best!

I don’t know why I didn’t write this sooner! I guess it’s because I just saw a post about someone wanting a recommendation for a pediatrician! I mentioned Dr. Allevato because she is awesome and her staff is great, along with the other Dr. that is in the office at times. I have been coming to her for about 18 years! I have always had a great experience. If my child has been ill, she answers any questions and takes the time to listen to any concerns! I also love her little «blue book»! It tells u what to do in moments when your little one is sick! Has helped me out so much! Thank u Dr. Allevato to you and all the staff in the office!

Dr. Allevato has an amazing office. We have been coming to her for over 9 years, and she has cared for all 3 of my children since birth. We rarely have to wait, and if I call with an unscheduled concern, I always get in the same day. She takes all of my concerns seriously. Any time we have needed a referral, she has always processed the paperwork and takes care of it. She is proactive in her approach and always takes time with us when we are there. Barbara and Katie in the office are very kind, and always remember our kids. The nurses in the office are also very kind and caring with my children. Dr. Sequeira is there on occasion and any time we have seen her, she also gives us the same attention and care that Dr. Allevato does. Dr. Allevato also has a website with helpful information for parents to reference. A wonderful doctor and highly recommend.

Dr. Allevato’s office and the entire staff are so friendly and caring to our needs. I trust my children to Dr. Allevato, she has been our children’s Dr. from our first child to our third. The office knows us well and always helps us when we need them most. Dr. Sequeira is also a pleasure and quick to get them well on their feet after a visit.

I was referred to Dr. Allevato by a coworker as a first time mom and i was not disappointed. From the time my son was son Dr. Allevato has been amazing. I was a paranoid mom after my son was in the hosptial for IV treatments his first week and anytime i called and was upset even tho it was nothing they invited me to come in for my own peace of mind. I would recommend Dr. Allevato to anyone. Her staff is amazing and she never makes me feel rushed or anything. love her!

The best pediatrian in all of Orange County! Her staff is so sweet and the entire office is very knowledgeable. The equipment in the office is very new! The doctors carry a laptop tablet that holds all the patient charting information! Everyone remembers the kids and make them feel so comfortable when we come in for visits. If we leave a message a return call happens the same day! I can’t express enough how wonderful Dr. Allevato is!!! I had to come in ASAP today and they took me right in! Love this office!!!

Doctor Allevato has been such a blessing in our life. Our son was born with Spina Bifida and has a few more health issues. Doctor Allevato makes sure to answer all of our many questions and she has helped us with some of our concerns. I love that she cares about helping us succeed as parents. As a first time mom I was very overwhelmed with the NICU and taking care of a medically fragile newborn. Doctor Allevato was there to support me. As our son has grown from an infant to a toddler, we are so grateful that Doctor Allevato has been by our side and a phone call away. Besides being an excellent physician, the office staff is wonderful and her office is bright, cheerful, and clean. I would highly recommend Doctor Allevato!

Can’t say enough wonderful things about Dr. Allevato and her staff! The moment you walk in the door, you are greeted with friendly smiles by Katie and whoever else might happen to be up at the front desk at the time. I don’t know if this is a common practice or not (I’ve never seen it before), but they have the waiting room divided into «sick children» and «well children» areas — brilliant! There is always a fun Disney movie on to watch while you wait. The office is so clean and bright, with a fun unique décor to each room and bathroom. Dr. Allevato always has a cheery disposition as soon as she walks in the room, and I am continually amazed at how she flits from one room to the next, never losing her enthusiasm for each new patient. She is extremely thorough but never condescending. My children adore her and she is truly wonderful with them.

Dr. Allevato is an amazing pediatrician. I have taken both of my kids to her since they were born. Her office is extremely clean, the staff is friendly, and her care is beyond excellent! She is very honest and thorough and makes sure the kids feel comfortable when they are there. I would not take my boys to anyone else!!!

Read the fine print before committing to this doctor. You might not see the Dr you think. They will also drop you if you are 15 min late even if you call in. Be careful before taking your child here.

Dr. Allevato came referred to us 5 years ago when I was in search of a new Pediatric Physician to replace our first Doctor. For a variety of reasons, including ignorance to concerns regarding my Sons development and general health, we left Dr. Jeffrey Taylor’s (Costa Mesa) practice.
Since, we now have four children and couldn’t be more happy with any other Doctor! Dr. Allevato was a breath of fresh air with an open mind and has a compassionate, informative bed side manner. At a time when I questioned the health of my Son and embarked on his delays, Dr. Allevato was intuitive and help guide me in the right direction. Early on, we discovered that our Son had Autism. Dr. Allevato herself has a family member with the condition and always spends quality time with me discussing concerns. She never fussed when I requested to spread out immunizations for our second born child in respect to the immunization-​autism debate (which has proven to have NO scientific correlation yet). Dr. Allevato has been quick to respond to some medical concerns, which has led to the discovery of GERD and Esophagitis with our oldest child. She has never doubted me, which is so important! I Honestly believe that if the norm was like the old days, she’d come to your home to provide care. Don’t get excited because this is not Little house on the Prairie (you older folks will remember), She doesn’t do that. LOL!
Seriously speaking, you are truly lucky to be a patient in this office. Even more so now that she recently re-​opened her practice to new patients. The staff is always accommodating, friendly and they have all been there for years. Additionally, The office has a part time Physician, Dr. Lynette Sequeira who is equally fabulous and is as fierce as a tiger! I mean this in a good way as she herself is very attentive and caring. She spends the rest of her time at the St. Joseph Pediatric Emergency ward. Clearly, the passion of this office is to provide good care to children. The Doctors and staff themselves, are Mothers!
In a day and age where everything is rushed and impersonal, this office exceeds my expectations for quality service. They never over book and run on time for the most part. Of course, on occasion the office runs a tad late, but nothing ridiculous! The area is safe, building very clean and easily accessible from the freeway.
