What Parents are Saying
“I have been bringing both my girls to Prima Pediatrics for years and have never had any issues.. the wait time can be a little long, but which doctors office isn’t. I always make their appointments with Josh the PA. I can’t express how much I appreciate his patience with my screaming child. He is always very professional, kind and informative. He honestly goes above and beyond. I always choose to make my appointment with him because I know he will he give my girls the best of care.”

“If I could give a million stars I would!! Dr Wagner is an amazing doctor who had enough knowledge to know a lump in my sons leg was not normal and push forward quickly for further testing. My sons diagnosis of Ewings Sarcoma often goes misdiagnosed and untreated! So thank you Dr Wagner for your knowledge and fast action!”

“Dr. Feldman is highly respected among her peers and the medical community as a whole. Children’s Hospital LA unofficially refers to her as Children’s Hospital West. Dr. Feldman cares for the most complicated pediatric cases and the sickest children…
“What may not be widely known is that her practice manages the majority of children in the Santa Clarita Valley with special needs, intellectual disability, and children with cerebral palsy. These types of patients are the most complicated and can be the most time consuming. Other Pediatricians choose to refer these patients out to specialists, focusing more on the quick and simple sick and well child visits. Dr. Feldman chooses to care for these patients, and also many patients with Medi-Cal insurance, because she has a big heart and she feels that they deserve the best medical care possible.”

“This review is LONG overdue!!! If you want a doctor who not only cares but is brilliant, then you should take your children to Dr. Feldman. She saved my son’s life !! He is now 20 yrs old. She is amazing with my daughter also, who is seven. Dr. Feldman KNOWS when a child is truly sick and she is very thorough. She has been my pediatrician for almost 20 years and I don’t know what I would do without her.”
