Founded in 1963, the providers of Virginia Pediatric and Adolescent Center have been caring for the children of northern Virginia through multiple generations. Our goal is to foster the growth, health, and happiness of your child. We care for children from infancy through college, and we take pride in treating them with compassion in a non-hurried and nurturing environment.
We care for the whole child--meaning that we give both illness-related and preventative care--while tending to the physical, emotional and social developmental needs of each child in the context of self, family, and the broader community.

We haven't had issues with treatment and we usually like the physicians and nurses we've seen. The 3 star reflects billing. It's like they're stuck in 1990 where we have to play phone tag to pay a bill. This is the only medical office I ever have issues with just paying a bill. They need an online payment service. The late billing notices I get reference logging into their site, but there's no login.
Nobody answers the billing phone number and I have no idea when they'll call back. If you're looking for a pediatric office, you might do better with a group that's a bit more progressive. *In response to whomever from Virginia Pediatric and Adolescent Center contacted me: I did call earlier this week and haven't been contacted back. I called last week, it took several hours for the office to call me back and I was in a meeting. *Most people get non-stop calls from scammers, so a phone call back is as inefficient as mailing the bill back.
I'm also not so sure I've ever seen your previous online billing, this has been a problem for several years. I appreciate your response and look forward to improvements in billing. *Update: It's been several months, still haven't been able to make a payment and still see no online billing on your website. Playing phone tag is not effective. Don't you care to save on postage?

I would not recommend this office. This place didn't take care good of patients, they don't have experiences. They are all nurses, no Doctors at the office at all, and the nurses had no experiences. Don't know to answer our questions and don't check any thing for our daughters when we are walking. someone put the tool into my daughter's nose for Covid test., and hurt my daughter and she got mad when my daughter was crying.
My daughter's eyes turn red, and hard to breath, but she doesn't know what is going on, keeps asking us to come back, but still no Doctors. I'm unhappy when bring my kids to this place.

I would not recommend this office, Their main priority is not to take care of patients but to find a way scam people. My kids were due for vaccine shots. I checked in and ask front desk about the cost which they couldn't provide me the cost. They told me that they will provide me with the cost in the room. I asked them and I could not get an answer.
Next thing they bring out vaccine with out disclosing the cost. I'm at check out they pull a bill of $1200 bill for Vaccine's and check up. I contact the billing department first promise me look into it and make correction which was a total lie. I asked for an office manager and they would not help me. I'm writing this review because of how unprofessional and dishonest a doctor office can be if you are paying attention. Please look harder and read review before you think of joining this office.
