| - I would have given it 5 stars, had it not been for the wait. Honestly, the only reason I love this place is because of our doctor. Dr. Hwang was our on-call pediatrician when I had my son, and although she is a bit socially awkward, she is an amazing doctor! I live all the way in Aliante, and I drive to Summerlin because I know my son will get amazing care. I almost didn't use her because it was so far away, but after talking it over, we decided that the distance was worth it, as opposed to "doctor shopping."
The office and waiting room are a bit of a mess. The wait times are long, and no, they do not really enforce the "sick child" and "well child" sides of the rooms. I have even seen so many people waiting, that they had to wait in the hallway. Recently, they called my house two days in a row to confirm an appointment that I made a month ago, saying I was supposed to come in a week before, but that is more of an office mistake than a problem with the doctors. They seem to overbook appointments so the waiting room wait is at least 45 minutes, and then it's another 15 minutes to wait for the doctor, but like I said, that's more of an office problem than a doctor issue.
Dr. Hwang is great with the children. She is gentle, attentive (she mentioned my son having congestion before I could bring it up to her) and very thorough. She takes her time and answers all of my questions, and as a first time mom, I have a TON of questions. When my son had to get circumcised, she referred me to her husband, which I thought was a little odd at first, but he told my boyfriend that she called three times that day to make sure that my son was not only getting the procedure done, but also to check if he was okay! I have NEVER heard of a doctor doing something like that! I am so happy with her and I know that although I might have to wait a little while, the wait is totally worth it.
