Arnold Blustein, MD

I absolutely love Dr. Blustein and all the staff here. We’ve been coming for a few years now and have always had a fantastic experience.
They have always been able to squeeze us in when my kids have been sick or needed to be seen quickly. Dr Blustein has always returned my calls for questions I’ve had.
When my son was hospitalized this year at Children’s Hospital, Dr. Blustein was there every morning to check on him, and was very thorough throughout our stay and beyond.
We love all the nurses and staff there as well! They know my kids, what they like and how to engage them to help them be less nervous.
Dr. Blustein is extremely knowledgeable and professional. I highly recommend him and his entire office.

Super pediatrician! Wonderful, caring and attentive doctor. We are new to the area and loved the convenience and top notch quality care or son received.
He treated our son with compassion and was extremely knowledgeable about our son’s injury. So glad we found him!
The only downside is they have no x-​ray capabilities. We had to go to another facility for that. That place was a zoo!
All in all, he’s fantastic!

I love Dr. Blustein. He is very caring and attentive. He checks in with you if your child is hospitalized or calls to see how your child is doing if it was a phone consult. I love how the office always finds a time to squeeze you in if your child suddenly becomes sick same day. Kathy is absolutely wonderful with kids. She is loved even though she is the one giving the shots! Amazing! :-)
I only give 4 stars instead of 5 because of the front desk staff. Every time I walk in, I am not acknowledged with a smile or a hand wave or anything and sometimes not even when I reach the front desk. I work in an office and believe patients should be acknowledged immediately when they walk in even if it is just a smile if you are busy on the phone. Definitely needs improvement there.
Other than that, office is great and continue to go there because Doctors are the best.

When my son was born in 2009 I interviewed several pediatricians nearby and chose Dr. Blustein and his office for several reasons, the main ones being his modified vaccination schedule (spreading them out as opposed to four shots in one visit), and his personality.
We have been completely happy ever since! He is professional and friendly, and keeps up-​to-​date with the latest research. He never bats an eye no matter how ridiculous or mundane my questions are. Need a same-​day appointment? No problem. Have a sick kid on the weekend? No prob. I have called for advice during office hours and on weekends — have nothing but gold stars for them.
Our family expanded since 2009 and we regularly visit the office with our twins. The support staff is very friendly, thoughtful and appreciated. The billing «department”(which I think is just one person) is awesome too. She navigated the vast sea of insurance coverage for us.
Two thumbs up!

My kids feel comfortable going to see Dr. Blustein and love to talk to him. We live 30 miles away and I travel half an hour just to have Dr. Blustein treating my children. The nurses are wonderful! They are very experienced. Maria is the only one that has ever been able to make my son sit still for a shot! And we love Kathy. I love the fact that Kathy remembers us. She knows my children’s names, how old they are, and what grade they are in school. This means a lot to me because I know they see hundreds of patients. The fact that they all go out of their way to make us feel welcomed and valued means a lot. I also appreciate the fact that whenever I call for an emergency I’m fit into the schedule, right then, that day. No waiting forever for someone to cancel. This is by far one of the best experiences we have had with a doctor.

To me. DR Blustein is one top MD in my eyes. He has over 34 years experience and is very loved by my kids and wife. He also speaks Spanish too so that makes it easier on my wife which she feels more comfortable speaking. When Sara was born 8−8−97 She was assigned there by my HMO at the time. At first i said I don’t know if that’s a good place for my daughters. At the time we lived 1 block away and we were there all the time!!! I think one time they didn’t want to answer the phone bcz they knew it was me. JK
The staff is totally awesome and I can’t say enough about this wonderful office. When Sara was @ children’s hospital for a week, the Dr would always check in with us or the other MD Gloria Alcala.
It is so worth every penny spent there!!!
