  • Wait time to see the doctor was so long! Our appointment was at 2 pm check in at 1:55pm didn't see the doctor till about 2:45pm she wasn't really listening to my concerns regarding my Son's allergies she was in and out in about 10-15 minutes I didn't like how she keeps mentioning my Son's weight. All the answer we told her, she wasn't satisfied as if we're lying to her and it made my 13 years old Son feel very insecure and sad about the whole conversation I wish she would address it more compationate I understand she's probably just trying to make her point across but we both feel like we're getting accused of something, rather then getting medical information. We have been seeing Dr.Choi for the last 4 year my last couple visits even with my other child the wait time is so long even though we arrived before the suggested time.

    Receptionists are great and they remembered my girls name and the doctor is very sweet and knowledgeable. Keep up the great work!
    Dr. Choi continues to be a huge blessing to our family. She always takes her time when we come for a check up or a visit for a specific concern. She is extremely thorough and I am incredibly grateful to her.
    Great experience!

    Biography

    To be able to help children grow into happy, healthy adults is a blessing. As a mom of three children – a 13-year-old and 11-year-old twins – I know that parenting isn't easy. A pediatrician who is committed to giving parents the help, reassurance, and information they need can be very important.

    For me, being a pediatrician is about not simply caring for the child, but for the whole family. I want parents to feel comfortable asking any question – and asking it more than once. If I've done my job of building a strong and trusting relationship, parents will see me as their partner, walking this journey of parenting together.

    There is nothing more important to me than the health and safety of your children. As a strong advocate of vaccinations, I believe that ensuring the children who visit our office are fully vaccinated is the single most important thing I can do to keep your children and your community safe. If you choose not to fully vaccinate your child, another physician may be a better fit for your family. If you have questions or would like more information on vaccinations, call our office at 562-697-6030
