Rating & Reviews
Dr Kwattra is the best! Since day 1 when we first met him with the birth of our first child 15 years ago, he has been incredibly resourceful, knowledgeable, and patient with our children with every visit. We are so thankful to have him as our children's pediatrician. He knows how to interact with the children at all stages of life. My son actually took to heart his recs on the importance of eating veggies and started that night after his appt. Now that says A LOT on how much a provider impacts your child that they listen to them despite what we tell them on a daily basis. Thank you Dr Kwattra for all you do. We are always so appreciative!
Dr Kwatra is the best! I have total faith in his diagnoses every time we come.
Our daughter has been seeing Dr. Kwatra for >13 years. He is an exceptional physician and has a great way of relating to kids of all ages. Kudos!!
Easy to make an appointment, got me in within 2 hours. Provider listened to all my concerns and treated my son accordingly. A great experience!
We love Dr Kwatra! He's amazing and so great with the kids! Thank you for everything!
Dr. Kwatra is the best of the best. My kids love him and the MAs were so fun and engaging with them. Great experience as always.
Thank you
Amazing experience as always with Dr Kwatra. My daughter left the appointment talking about how much she loves her doctor and how she can't imagine ever seeing anyone else. I feel the same way!
Dr. Kwatra is the only pediatrician we as a family use and trust with all 7 of my grandchildren. 4 of whom I have permanent custody of. He is aware of our family dynamic and is very helpful navigating taking care of my 4 grandkids.
Staff friendly and helpful as always
Good experience. The child didn't even cry when she got her shot. Dr. Discussed all milestones and made helpful suggestions for potty training.
Excellent experience very grateful for this entire team. Thank you.
Dr. Kwatra has always been great. He provides a lot of information about why things are happening, what he's recommending, and in answering any questions I have. I'm so happy we found him after the birth of my son.
He's our favorite.
Dr. Kwatra is a great doctor and always treats us with respect and listens to our concerns. He has a great sense of humor and we are very grateful to have him as our daughter's pediatrician.
They were very quick and efficient and Dr. Cuatro took the time to explain a lot of the information as well as answer my questions with detail. I really like that office. I've been going there for a year now and unless we move, we'll be staying there until my son is old enough to leave the pediatrician. Thank you.
Very caring and took time with us.
My children always feel cared for and when my daughter is terrified and screaming and being hysterical from getting a shot the nurses are always so loving with her to help her get thru the process quickly and as painless as possible
Dr. Vinay Kwatra is an amazing, amazing pediatrician and I am very, very, very thankful that he is my children's doctor. They've seen many doctors in the past, you know, 13 and 15 years of their lives, maybe three or four, and Dr. Kwatra is hands down the absolute best. And I have lots of children and of all of the pediatricians I've ever seen, he is definitely, in the top two, probably the best one ever. He's kind, caring, considerate, thoughtful, funny, and very smart. And I greatly appreciate you guys for having him because he's phenomenal. Thank you very much.
Great experience overall.
Love this dr!
Dr. Kwatra is the best. He has been all 7 of my grandkids pediatrician since they all born.
Dr. Kwatra and his staff are the absolute best. Given family history, we had a concern related to symptoms our daughter was experiencing. He was quick to respond and work us into the schedule. We are so grateful to have a doctor who truly cares. He listens. He explains things to parents in a way that we understand and to kids in a way that they can understand. My kids love Dr. Kwatra. It will be a sad day when they outgrow the pediatrician'_ but for now, we know we're in great hands!
Dr. Kwatra is the best. He's so great with children. He makes them feel comfortable. He listens and takes his time to answer questions. Thankful for his care.
Dr Kwatra is a great asset to this practice.
Dr. Kwatra is a fantastic pediatrician and we feel lucky to be under his care.
We love our Dr!
Dr Kwatra is a fantastic provider
Dr. Kwatra has been my son's doctor since he was a baby. Now he's almost 18. He has always done a great job!
Dr. Quatra by far is the best provider at the facility. He is the reason we continue to come back and we refer other people to him. He follows up in moments that it is due and he is very thorough and I never feel rushed and my kids absolutely love him.
Dr. Was incredible and compassionate. He was on time, and took time examining my son while not keeping us there a long time.
Dr. Kwatra is really awesome. He knows, he has a lot of knowledge and he's really good with kids and I highly recommend him.
Dr. Kwatra is the best. He's so great with the kids and explains things so both they and I can understand.
Wonderful care and time spent
Dr. Kwatra is great with children. He makes the appointment fun for kids and removes any anxiety that they may be experiencing. I appreciate how he takes his time to explain things and listens.
Dr. Kwatra always takes amazing care of my boys. My son was very scared and nervous to have the staple removed from his head wound. Dr. Kwatra put him at ease, made him laugh and of course removed the staple seamlessly without my son even noticing! He is truly a gem!
We have been patients of this office for over 20 years. Dr Kwatra is an excellent pediatrician. He is kind, knowledgeable, and cares about his patients. I highly recommend Dr. Kwatra and the entire staff at Phoenix Childrens.
Thoroughly impressed with this provider, and his demeanor with my twin boys.
