I have been bringing my son here for 16yrs and we had Dr. Hoyson (RIP) when he was a baby. He was the best! Now, we've had a mix of different doctors since then but for the past few years, we've had Dr. Kilpatrick and she is wonderful! She listens and is patient, kind and caring. As far as appointment wait times, it's hit or miss. Our most recent appointment, we got there 15 minutes early and got called back 2 minutes after sitting down and only waited about 10 minutes in the back room. We have had longer waits though but I do understand every child's situation is different and a parent may have more questions for the doctor or tests/labs to be ordered. It happens.

About UPMC Children's Community Pediatrics – Bellevue
UPMC Children's Community Pediatrics – Bellevue Pediatric Associates, Bellevue Office is a large and accessible pediatric care provider in Bellevue, PA, part of the largest childhood primary care network in western and central Pennsylvania. The office offers comprehensive medical services for children from infancy through adolescence, with a team of dedicated doctors and specialists. Families appreciate the convenience of flexible scheduling and multiple locations, making it easier to access care when needed.
Many parents have had positive experiences over the years, highlighting friendly staff and attentive doctors. One parent shared that they have been bringing their children there for six years with consistently good experiences. The office staff and nurses are praised for being fast and making procedures like immunizations as painless as possible. Appointment times are often quick, and families feel well taken care of during visits.
However, some reviews mention challenges with communication and specific doctors. One parent expressed dissatisfaction with a doctor who dismissed concerns, while another shared frustration over poor communication regarding COVID-19 test results. In this case, the office failed to notify the parent of a positive test result promptly, and the response from staff was seen as inadequate and unprofessional. Despite these issues, the overall impression remains that the office is a reliable place for pediatric care, with staff that generally care about children’s health and well-being.
Reviews
I'm not sure why there are so many negative reviews, but I've been bringing my kids here for six years, and honestly, I've had nothing but good experiences with the staff and doctors.
This office has gone way down hill over the last 14 years. The front desk staff is very unpleasant usually (in person and on the phone) They are unprofessional, sitting on their personal cell phones. This is just a general review. I once had to sit in a room for an hour with my profoundly autistic child for an appointment with no communication. We had to leave. After my kiddos next wellness checks we will be going elsewhere.
