Been with Dr. Lonzarich for years. He speaks so fast that we are typically able to get a half-hour conversation in, in under 10 minutes! The down-side to that is sometimes things are lost in translation. I feel like he treats my kids well, but I don't feel like he has any idea who we are every time we come in. The kids love him and he seems to always know exactly what to do for them. He does seem to become pushy when we have a disagreement about how to proceed.

Dr. Lonzarich is the best pediatric doc we have ever had. We lived all over the country and his bedside manner along with in-depth knowledge of kids needs is second to none. Our son was diagnosed with ADHD - Dr. Lonzarich was outstanding with him regarding speaking to him about the diagnosis and talking to him about the strengths of his personality because of it. He has a compassionate heart that is for his patients. I would recommend him to anyone looking for an outstanding pediatrician.

Dr. Lonzarich is absolutely wonderful! I would never take my children to anyone else. He is enthusiastic, great with the kids, and is extremely diligent with his care. I highly recommend him to anyone needing a pediatrician. The other doctors in the office with him are great as well.

He was recommended by the nurses on the maternity ward and he now attends to our 3 children. He speaks rapidly, but he won't leave the room until all our questions are answered. No regrets.
