Family First Pediatrics

I have been bringing my children to Dr Tad Shirley since my oldest was 1 an he is now 8. I now have 4 kids an they all are cared for by Dr Shirley! He is awesome!!! He helped me through the «OMG he hit his head, what to do!!!» Faze lol. An other times where I was panicked about my newborn with reflux… I moved to Katy about 4 years ago an still travel to Spring so that Dr Shirley takes care of my kiddos. He is amazing!!! Would never go else where!

Dr Shirley is amazing. He has never seemed hurried, is always happy to answer questions or do any testing I request, and is never pushy about anything. The staff is always friendly & helpful. Such a great practice!

I’m not sure there are adequate words to express the gratefulness I have for the doctors at Family First Pediatrics. We have had an unusually sick Fall this year and have been to the doctor more times than I care to count. However, if we have to be somewhere, Family First is where I would want to be every time.
Dr. Marchesano is our «normal» doctor. She is extremely thorough, explains everything in layman’s terms and even called to check on my very sick eight month old after a visit to the ER. She has an excellent bedside manner. I am thankful for her thoughtfulness and the amazing care she gives my children.
We have also seen Dr. Shirley twice. I appreciated his care and my nine year old son loved him!
We have NEVER had wait until the next day for an appointment and our waiting room time is usually less than ten minutes. If you are new to the area or have been here a long time and are just looking for a new pediatrician, give Family First Pediatrics a try. I can almost guarantee you that it will end your search!

Update. Had to have an urgent visit to the Dr with a sick kid. We saw Dr. Marchesano who is the newest addition to the practice.
She was wonderful and took the time to explain everything.
If you want personal care for your kids, this is the place.

Tad Shirley who is our family pediatrician at Family First Pediatrics is great. We have been using him since our daughter was born and she is now 3. He also is my newborn son who is 6 weeks old pediatrician. He is a terrific pediatrician. Very friendly and works great with children. He takes his time with patients and always answers any questions we have. We fill very comfortable while we are there and the new space they have been moved into is very nice. New offices and facilities with separate sick/​well waiting rooms which I like. Never a problem getting an appointment to see him even on rush situations. I highly recommend him to anyone looking for a good pediatrician in the area.
