Happy Families
We love PA Nim. She’s so kind and sweet. She explains details to the little one so they can understand and participate in their care. She is thorough and just overall great!
Cristina Ou
Our girls have been receiving care at Great Destinations for 10 years (since the birth of our first). We have had nothing short of excellent care and experience with their practice! The providers and staff are awesome.
Lori Klaski
Our daughter was extremely sick with the flu. Great Destinations was able to get her in immediate with the PA Nim. She was absolutely amazing with my daughter! Her bedside manner was so caring. I am so thankful for the quality of care we continue to receive at Great Destinations!
Laura Giblin
I have gone to Dr. Shepherd when I was a child and she’s now taking care of my three kids! Dr. Shepherd is phenomenal. She has great bedside manner and my kids feel so comfortable with her. She answers all your questions thoroughly and gives great feedback and most importantly does not rush the appointment which I appreciate.
Cassidy Rodriguez
Both of our kids have gone to Great Destinations over the last 20 years, and we would always recommend them to anyone looking. The staff and doctors are always very kind and caring.
Debora Roddick
Dr Jordan was very thorough and walked us through his thoughts and diagnoses when my daughter was sick. He was very patient and gentle with my daughter, and made her comfortable during the exam. We love Great Destinations!
Vanessa Gonzalez
Great Destinations Pediatrics is a great pediatrician's office! We have been going there for 18 years and have had good experiences with each doctor and PA. We see Dr. Shepherd primarily, and we love her! She takes time to listen to our concerns and is very patient, caring, and thorough.
