Rutherford Pediatrics

Our 15 year history with this practice is now coming to an end because they took advantage of my husband’s ignorance in claiming that my daughter needed the HPV shot. Which they happily administered, the last time he took her in for a sports-related check-up. He said he was “confused”, I’m not surprised when these things get pushed and pushed upon you. Even if you’re up to date with all other shots like we were, it’s never quite good enough. So disappointed in this practice, at least tell the truth… what IS and IS NOT a mandatory vaccine. I have consistently rejected this vaccine for my daughter over the years and this office duly noted it, SO much so that they asked me to sign some assinine in-house form stating that I rejected it (despite their incredible gift of knowledge).

Dr. Desai is truly the best! It’s always easy to schedule appointments, and the staff is incredibly welcoming and kind. The care and attention given to the kids is outstanding. Highly recommend this practice for all your pediatric needs!

The front desk and nursing staff is so friendly and helpful. The doctors are knowledgeable and approachable. My daughter is sometimes nervous going in but once the doctor comes in and interacts with her all her worries go away. You can tell everyone in this office loves kids. You can’t beat the office hours and I have never had a hard time making an appointment whether it was a well visit or a sick visit.

I have been taking my son’s here for several years now and I haven’t had any problems. Nice staff. Great docs and PA’s. Appointment availability is good. I haven’t experienced any long wait times during our visits.

We couldn’t have chosen a better pediatricians office for our son! The doctors are amazing and thorough, and the office staff is friendly and always courteous! I especially want to praise Dr O’Brien. She is always understanding and takes great care of our little guy. Since the first appointment, she has been flexible and always available for us! My wife and I absolutely love them for our child’s primary care.
