My son has been going to her since he was born. He is now 12. He loves her and I couldnt imagine him with another doctor. She takes her time with him and answers all of our questions. Often times she knows his history before looking at the chart. I love this doctor!! The office staff are phenomenal!! They always go the extra mile for me and my son. The only problem I have is with the nurse. She has been rude to me on multiple occasions and has absolutely NO bedside manner!

He is now 6 and he loves "Dr Philly" as he has always called her:) She gets to know these childrer on a personal level and does such a great job at easing the fears of the children and parents alike. Thank you for all that you do for our community Dr. Philyaw!

The front staff lacks a lot to be desired and the staff over-all is average, but Dr. Philyaw is top shelf. She is such a blessing to my family and to this community. She always cares about my daughter and takes time to get to know her. I truly think she's one of the best trained and best educated doctors I've ever seen. If not, she sure fakes it well! We love her!

She is a sweet lady, however I have always felt rushed out of the office. Have to ask if I can ask a question after her part and the overall checkup is complete. Her nurse definitly leaves a lot to be desired when it comes to bed side manners. Was very confused when I took my child in for a high fever and his temperature was never even taken. The office is very clean, great phone/desk staff that are always polite, and prompt at getting an appointment, but will be searching out a new pediatrician unfortunately.
