Dr. Mason takes my child’s health very seriously. She always listens to our concerns and creates a clear health plan moving forward.

What would you tell family and friends about your experience with this provider?
I do not like how the front office is run. The doctor is friendly and the nurses are mostly good. However, the lack of understanding is astounding. And I should not have to pay for a sports physical right after I got my child’s annual physical where they did all the things he needed. Then they refused to do the physical paperwork portion because supposedly they didn’t do the correct things at the annual check up. Why do I pay for an annual check up if I don’t get the full services.

What would you tell family and friends about your experience with this provider?
The front desk staff does their job poorly, very rude on the phone when making appointments, and tries to tell others what they can and can’t do as far as booking appointments when they know nothing about insurance. And I have to make unnecessary appointments for sports physicals when the doctor could have just pulled the information from the yearly annual check up appointment, which was two days prior and should have involved an eye exam, to do the sports physical questions.

What would you tell family and friends about your experience with this provider?
Dr. Mason failed to put in a referral for my son when I asked for her to put a referral in for all my children. The front staff is not friendly and are rude and think they know everything about insurance.

Dr. Maria Mason has seen and examined our daughter kindly and consistently since birth. Her [AGE] year well check was more of the same experience. She's kind, down to earth and thorough. Our child was extra inspired to play doctor when we got home that day. Thanks!

We are absolutely lucky to have Dr. Maria Mason available to help keep us up on our children's growth and development. My 2.5 year old daughter pretends to be Dr. [removed patient name for privacy] regularly in our home and it's partly because of her interactions with Dr. Mason. Thanks for being there Maria!

Positive experience each and every time, from a few days old to our most recent 15 month well check. Dr. Mason has great presence in the room and speaks with my little one in just the right way so that she's curious instead of concerned. We never feel rushed or unheard. Thank you!
