Mountain View Pediatrics

Our children have been treated by Dr. Gonzalez for the past 10 years, and I could not be more pleased with the professionalism and expert care we have received. I credit him with saving one of my daughter’s toes when he spotted and successfully removed a hair tourniquet at a well visit. Her toe had barely turned red, but it would have caused a big problem later in the day if he have not spotted it! I am also incredibly grateful for the care he provided to my older daughter when she was shot in the eye with a Nerf gun dart – his quick referral had her being examined by a pediatric ophthalmologist within an hour of our visit with him, and her vision in that eye was saved.

I really liked Dr. Gonzalez. My daughter went their when she was born and my son started going their when he was born 7 years later. He will listen to you and does what he needs to treat your kids. Professional as well. After 8 years of my children being his patient we left. His staff is so rude. During that time my kids were are Medicaid while I was finishing college. I feel strongly they treated us rudely simply because of this. We now attend child health center in hickory and have been there for 5 years happily. I don’t if he still has the same receptionist and staff but I hope not. Reading other comments I see I’m not the only family treated badly by his staff.

My children are seen at this practice and have been for many years. Dr. G and Micah are great! They actually take the time to listen and answer any questions that you OR your child may have. Both are honest, upfront and have great bedside manners. I don’t really understand the negative reviews on here as we’ve never had any problems in the past decade? I would recommend them to anyone that wants a great pediatrician/p.a.

The professionalism of the front office staff leaves much to be desired. We visit the area frequently, and our young son was sick. The office refused to see him without a lengthy medical records transfer and approval process. When you have a sick little one, having a compassionate person on the other end of the phone would be nice, but the rudeness and lack of caring about a child's health has encouraged us to follow up elsewhere for care, even if it is a significant drive. Locals and visitors alike, I recommend you don't even spend your time with the front office staff.

Overall, this office is completely hit or miss. Micah was great the couple times we saw him at sick visits, but I would never recommend Dr Gonzalez. The front desk staff are also not personable on most days. I’m very glad we left and found a doctor that will have open conversations with us, give complete informed consent and respect our choices as parents. I hate to have to leave a bad review, but it’s absolutely necessary with our experience here.
