Yes, the facility was very nice. However, I don't think the staff listened and handled the situation properly. My son had to go to the ER the next day due to not being given the proper medication. Even the doctor at the ER wasn't understanding why she didn't give him steroids for three days, why just one day. So there was just a lot of confusion. So I don't, And they were kind of like joking. So I just don't think he was listened to. And this was something that was very scary. It was allergic reaction. So I think they can do better about that next time.

This facility is my go to facility at all times for any children that's over any age really and at the hours for sure. They've always been great and I will continue to go here and tell people about them.

I am an NP at Northside Hospital, and have always thought CHOA was "the place to take your kids". I had a much better experience here than any time I've ever been at the CHOA urgent care. Ashley NP and the staff were all wonderful. They were kind, professional, fast, helpful, and told us what to expect every step of the way. There was a KSU nursing student there who was also very professional and did a great job helping with our initial history.

I've never been in and out of an urgent care so fast and happily. We were taken back as soon as I got comfy on the chair, led by a cheerful nurse, and the NP listened to my concern with care, she must have been born for pediatric care with how sweet and gentle she was with my daughter. This was like the Chick-Fil-A of urgent cares in a world of Taco Bell's.

The only negative is we were given false information about medication dosages for our infant. The NP told us children's Motrin and infant Motrin are the same strength - they are not - and that the dose for my 14.5 lb daughter is 3.5 ml. The correct dose for her weight, per pharmacist, pediatrician, and even wellstar dosing chart, is 1.25 ml of the infant strength (100mg/1.25 ml) and 2.5 ml of the children's strength (50mg/5ml) We were even told that the different strengths are "a scam and the same strength" - this is false. It's true that the infant drops are more expensive but they're twice the strength for the purpose of giving babies less volume to take in a syringe. All that aside, the 3.5 ml dosage for the regular children's strength is also incorrect for her weight. Please correct this and clarify with providers the differences in strengths and correct dosing for infants

The NP told us the wrong dose for the antibiotic when I asked what she prescribed. She also said she can't remember but she sent it to Publix versus looking up what she sent.

My child was not checked for anything. They listened to her lungs, said that they were clear without any other testing and we ended up at CHOA the next day with RSV.
