Keith Ashburn, MD

Dr Ashburn was my pediatrician when I was a child up until I was 16 and now he has been the pediatrician for both of my boys since they were born (the oldest is 5). He is an incredible physician. The wait time is not very long compared to other doctors and when he comes in the room, he takes his time with the appointment. We have never felt rushed and actually enjoy talking to him. The kids love him as he speaks to them directly and make them feel important in the appointment. He is considerate of our feelings regarding their health and never makes us feel bad about our beliefs. What makes going to Dr. Ashburn even better is the new/​old nurse George. He always answers the nurses phone when we call for questions or concerns, he is thorough with assisting us with whatever we need, when we see him in the office or speak to him on the phone he is so patient with me (I say me because I know I’m not always an easy mom to deal with) and of course patient with the kids, and he goes above and beyond to help us. Dr Ashburn and George make visiting the pediatrician a positive experience. A+

I made an appointment with Dr. Ashburn for my 3 sons. I was very pleased with him. As far as his staff, his receptionist named Luis is phenomenal. His service is amazing. Always happy and very helpful. We need more people like him in the medical field.

Dr. Ashburn is an amazing pediatrician! ! I wish if I could find a doctor for myself like him. I have 2 daughters, my oldest being almost 15 and lol my last is 3 ½. He has been our pediatrician since my oldest was about a month old… I would not trade him for anything in the world… I believe he does an amazing job, he interacts with the kids, he cares and he listens… I don’t even know what else to say I just think he and his team are all around amazing!

Dr Ashburn and his staff are great. Dr Ashburn is super busy so there is a lag time in the office and appt are hard to get. I love the receptionist and Louis who always reminds me about upcoming appts.

Dr Ashburn is great and the entire office. But why not get 5 stars? Well dr Ashburn nurse needs to learn how to take a proper Blood pressure on a child start of by using the right size cuff and I saw what you did you did not take a proper blood pressure on my child. It’s my child’s health on your hands

We met Dr. Ashburn 19 years ago when our son was born at St. Joseph’s Hospital in Burbank. We are so grateful to have had him take care of our son during the whole time he was growing up! In the early years, we had to switch insurance to follow him around a few times until his office landed on Magnolia, where he’s been for years now. He saw us through a week in the NICO when my son was born, countless ear infections when he was young, and advocating for our son when he needed early speech therapy. He’s been there for us all along the way. Now, it’s time for us to move on to a «grown up» doctor, and we are sad to say goodbye to this fantastic pediatrician and his staff. You would be lucky to have Dr. Ashburn as your family pediatrician. His calm kind manner with the kids (and parents) and his willingness to care for the whole child is what makes him so good at what he does. Thank you, Dr. Ashburn, for caring for our son from birth through his first year of college!

Dr. Ashburn and his staff are absolutely wonderful. I am so pleased and happy to have chosen this doctor and his office as my childs pedriatrician. Dr. Ashburn is very patient, friendly and seems to authentically carr about his patients. The other day my one year old had a high fever and they booked me a same day appointment to check him out. Also, there NP Ana is an amazing nurse and highly recommend seeing her. She even called me the day after just to check in and see how my little one was doing.

Dr. Ashurn is a very good doctor, and his staff is very nice, especially Louis (sp?) who answers the phones. Lord knows how many times he’s had to deal with my last minute appointments and he’s always been very pleasant on the phone. His front desk ladies, and his nurse are also very sweet women! Dr. Ashburn is a very straight to the point doctor. He always listens to me, gives me good advice, and is always offering to send my daughter to a specialist if needed. Also, they’re very good about taking you in at your appointment time. I’ve never had to wait more than 10 minutes past my daughters’ appointments.

I am EXTREMELY surprised with all the 5 star reviews for Dr. Ashburn.
My son was born at St. Joseph, and he was appointed to be my son’s pediatrician within the Post-​Partum floor. I kept taking my son to him, until shortly after his first birthday.
My son started getting really sick. My son kept getting fevers of over 102.0 degrees, would vomit incessantly, and was losing weight and becoming lethargic, with shortness of breath. I kept hearing the same song and dance: he’s just got a common cold virus. This went on for about 2 months, until I asked him to send me to a Pediatrics GI doctor. He got EXTREMELY angry, told me that he was giving me the referral, and left me in the room without concluding his consultation, my son still naked on his diaper. I asked the nurse if he was coming back, she saw him leave so abruptly, she said yes. After about 5 minutes she came back to tell me: get your son dressed, the consult has concluded.
He did indeed refer me to an Pediatric GI doctor, but not before writing him A LETTER saying I was a «picky» mother!!! The GI Dr., completely predisposed negatively about me, just prescribed a YEAR of ranitidine for my son and sent us on our way, without pertinent tests or anything else.
Finally, my husband’s work insurance came through, and we got a PPO. We went to a new pediatrician, who in turn referred us to a different pediatric GI MD who conducted a series of blood tests, to finally find out that the so-​called «virus» Dr. Ashburn had said was a complex food allergy to most of the food we were giving him.
His diet changed after that, and my son finally got better, started to gain weight again, and his fevers and vomiting finally ceased.
Dr. Ashburn’s petulance and ego did not let him see past his misdiagnosis, and we were slowly killing our son due to his stubborn nature.
I would not advise ANY PARENT to bring their child to Dr. Ashburn. He should, in fact, not be allowed to have a license. His sense of compassion and good practice are completely out the door.

Dr. Ashburn is the best. Hands down. He is not stiff and cold like other pediatricians. He actually plays around with the kids and makes them feel comfortable. And his nurse is the best at what she does. My visits are always pleasant and staff is very friendly and organized.

Dr. Ashburn is a wonderful pediatrician! I’ve been taking my son to him for almost two years and with every visit he takes his time and answers all of my ‘first time mom’ questions. We are lucky to have him as our pediatrician!

Dr Ashburn is one of the best pediatricians which we have ever met. For me the most important thing is that the doctor has to spend more with us and answer all our questions patiently. He excels in this aspect. The way he talks to kids is amazing. I would recommend him to any one. Btw, the front desk /​Nurse were very helpful.

its rare to me to feel comfortable with Dr’s but Ashburn is truely an exception! I am fond of his attitude that does not make big deals of little colds. He is modern, friendly, and really pays attention to both kids and parents. We have seen him for at least 13yrs and I am very pleased. His nurse is sweet too.

Just when I thought all the decent pediatricians in Burbank were taken, we were lucky to land a spot at Dr. Ashburn’s. He takes the time to explain things to not just me, but to the kids, as well. Office staff is pleasant enough, and you never feel rushed or like you’re bothering them.

Nice and spacious waiting area, professional and kind staff, nice office and, most important, experienced, kid-​friendly pediatrician (met some pediatricians who weren’t friendly at all). Bedside manners awesome, my son likes him a lot, and my husband and I are happy with how thorough Dr. Ashburn is. Strongly recommend :)

Dr. Ashburn is wonderful. He is so good with my son, who has been seeing him since he was 5 years old (he is now 16). Would highly recommend!

Dr. Ashburn has been our kids doctor for 7 years. He is a very caring, knowledgable, and competent doctor. We are so grateful for all the care he has given our kids throughout the years. He talked to my kids in a way that made them feel comfortable and listened to. He talks to the kids and asks them questions not just to me so it made the kids feel special. He was very professional always as was his staff. I would recommend him to anyone who has kids.

Dr Keith Ashburn is a Doctor of his word. He said he would ring me with results and he did. He was excellent. Haven’t been with Dr Ashburn for long time but my son likes him, so do I.

Dr Ashburn, you are a fiver!
We came over from Dr. Behzad Behmanesh in Valley Village. HE IS A WITCH DOCTOR! That place was the worst and I don’t recommend it to anyone, even the people I don’t like.
Dr Ashburn was like an angel when he examined our girls. I love this guy and know I won’t have any hesitations about taking my girls in for check ups. The lobby and examination rooms are very child friendly and the staff is very catering to children (as a pediatrician should be so take notes Dr Behmanesh!). The staff is very friendly and have the patience you will need when signing in with excited and loud kids!
His personality and attitude are right on and he was a hit with the kids. They even got a shot and didn’t have any kid drama because they were so relaxed. He asked questions and was actually interested in children (take notes Dr Behmanesh!). It’s nice to actually have an intelligent conversation with our doctor!
Dr Ashburn is a refreshing upgrade from Dr Behmanesh. I know feel that our children are in the hands of a gentle, caring and professional doctor. My wife and I are so happy that we changed over to Dr. Ashburn.
I highly recommend this doctor if you have small children and want one-​on-​one attention.
Thank you Dr Ashburn!

I’ve been very successful in getting my appointments when I need them, walking in and seeing him, getting my calls returned. Excellent bedside manners, talks to my little one and listens to me.
His staff is always kind and his nurse is a doll.
I’m not easily pleased and I don’t like bad service, but this just isn’t the case here. He is a great doctor who loves his patients and it shows.
