There are wonderful caregivers there offering state of the art diagnostics and treatment in a kind and loving environment. It is a very special place that provides incredible care to local children and accepts patients transferred from outlying hospitals. THE BEST!

Dr. Wong and staff were very kind, professional, patient and knowledgeable m, except for one RN. RN Jim from the ER side, made me feel like I was dumb, like if I was overreacting and I didn’t know what I was talking about. My baby had some type of seizure episode for the first time, fever, diarrhea, vomiting gesture without actually vomiting etc and he kept not taking anything I was saying serious. I explained the whole situation and the reason why we were there and he just kept brushing things off the shoulder and saying how kids do weird things all the time and that it’s probably just a regular cold, nothing major, she seems fine, like if there’s nothing wrong with her. Turns out, she has COVID and according to Dr. Wong, it actually WAS a febrile seizure. Another thing about RN Jim that I disliked and embarrassed me was when I was describing and demonstrating how her seizure was, he asked me how was it again? I thought to myself, oh cool he’s actually taking me serious now, so I did it again and demonstrated the seizure episode again and he said now do it one more time and I was about to do it again when I realized oh wow he’s just getting a kick out of this and making fun of me. So I didn’t do it again and we all laughed about it at the time, but I was pretty irritated and upset about the fact that he was just joking about it rather then making us parents feel like he’s actually hearing us out. Other than him, everyone else was great. That’s why I’m not giving it 5 stars.

How can this be the best to offer for our kids in the valley. The ER is completely unprofessional the staff has no motivation. My child has waiting more then 3 hours to be seen with a fever of 103 coming in. Me and my wife can't both come in with him so he's losing his mind wanting both of us with him he's only 2! They won't let us both in. There doesn't seem to be any urgency and people are waiting forever to be seen. My kid has been balling for 2 hours waiting me as well My wife can't wait alone in a dark parking lot I'm the cold out side ! His heart rate was up to 160 and the poor guy is having the worst experience all this money we pat for insurance and this what they offer SHSME on them 💔

Hey everyone, My son is having surgery on Dec. 13th & at his pre-op appt we were told that he will be 1st & have to stay overnight. Which means we have to head up the day before. My question is what hotel or motel is the closest to the hospital?

Blanca Pumphrey | Nov 4, 2020
OSCAR A | Nov 4, 2020

Call the hospital and talk to a social worker and maybe you can stay at the Ronald McDonald House while your son is inpatient and they can also give you names of hotels in the area.

On way now to valley children's with my 14 daughter she is being transported from porterville 2 hours away, to be monitored after taking to many blood pressure pills . I have no money for food or shelter. They say she will be there for a few days.

If you feel that her condition is serious enough you can bring her to the emergency room 24 hours a day. If not, it is better to have her referred by her pediatrician.
