Tarrant Community Pediatrics

Unprofessional. Uncaring. Late. Lazy. Will never go again as well as telling friends, reviews and my corporate office I work at about the company itself. This was my first appointment for both of my children, I arrived early and filled out the paperwork and waited for our turn in line. We were taken on time but waited for more than an hour for the doctor. I even went out and personally asked her how much longer and was told five minutes.. little did I know they saw another sick patient that had arrived much later than I had. I read these reviews online and discovered malpractice.. how this company is still running without being sued or shut down is beyond me. Eventually, frustration for me and my children whom had been waiting in a small contained room for more than an hour I grabbed my bag and left.. sure enough she starts heading to my door and I tell her i'm leaving, " I was just about to come in", is the response I get. I give her my piece of mind and leave the building.. I hope she takes her " fifteen minute break" from not seeing us to really consider how she treats patients, her profession and over all her life. Also I might mention my son WAS sick but when I had brought him since the appointment ( which was drawn out as far as possible for two VERY sick children due to their ridiculous bookings) I had asked for a well child visit.. I was told no I would have to schedule that because it takes time.. hmmm.. maybe if I hadn't been waiting an hour that " Time" they couldn't dedicate too could have been completed into a well child visit. Yeah. No Thanks. My advice? Leave before you wait an hour, miss hours from work and waste your time with someone that only cares about money. Find someone that actually cares for your children as much as you do.

I choose this doctor because my friend was a nurse at this practice. HUGE MISTAKE! Dr Kalai was very unprofessional in so many ways. When my son was born a nurse thought he had a disability. When Dr Kalai came in the room she said she didnt think he did, not to worry about it and that the blood test they do at birth would confirm it when we got the results in. Later I got a phone call to come into her office for the results. She made me wait in a room for about an hour before she finally made time for me. When she came in she said, and I quote, "We got your sons test results back, and.... well here..." and she handed me the file with the disability on it. She didnt even read it to me! Thank goodness my mother was with me because I was in so much shock I couldnt even think! I didnt quite understand what all the form said so when I asked questions she got irritated. And she stuttered and acted as if she wasnt 100% on the results either... That was the last time I ever saw that woman. My son is 7 now and we have been with Cook Childrens ever since!

She is Great! Always very thurough with her exams. She has shows great care for your child.

I choose this doctor for my son biggest mistake ever!!! Each time we went in she did not know what procedures had been done. Child was ill and was in her office alot and she couldnt remember who he was each time. She was always way over booked. More than 1 hour wait time. At end of visit I would ask questions as far as ear tubes if they were still in she would look at chart cause she didnt remember about tubes and said no they were out. Recently we went to emergency room they were stuck they were in there. This lady is all about money!!!!! Dosn't care about patient!! Be Careful!

My son has been seeing her for a couple of years and they had a very friendly staff if you don't mind waiting on hold.
