Planned Parenthood

I am truly baffled by some of the reviews I have seen about this practice. Here's my experience and more importantly, my children; 8 months, 3 and 11. Each doc has her own style--terrific for three distinct personalities and the kids are learning to engage with different people. I admit, I am as child centered as you get--breast feeding for years and always, each doc has been very respectful of my choices. Shots--they are such a trauma for kids...unless you come in fast and do it quickly--no talk, no drama! I love these nurses! and...most importantly, each doctor is REAL. Have you asked them about their experience? We have real-time moms with impeccable credentials...Dr. McSorley (or is it Dr. C?) wins best doctor awards every year. During flu season and the start of school, I call and ask about wait times...the front desk has never steered me wrong. Frankly, I don't want to be in a peds office that isn't busy...and call around--10 bucks for forms is standard. To each her own, but I won't go anywhere else! more

We waited a long, long time to be seen. The waiting room was crammed to the ceilings and there was no place even to sit down. When the doctor finally saw us, she was distracted and barely paying attention. The location is convenient, but we won't be going back. more

It is usually a nightmare to go to Society Hill Pediatrics. You always have to wait at least one hour, and anyone that has babies or kids know how hard it is to wait with little ones. You can't eat in the waiting room, so you have to step outside into the hallway to have a snack. Most of the peds rush through the visit (there are a couple of peds in the prectice that are very thorough though). more
