Jeffrey F Bocchicchio, MD

Both of my sons saw Dr. Bocchicchio for many years. I was always very happy with Dr. Bocchicchio, and my sons really liked him and felt comfortable seeing him. We received a general letter that Dr. Bocchicchio was leaving Austin Regional Clinic. Unexpected, no explanation, and so sorry to see him go.
I think Dr. Bocchiccio is now with Seton Circle of Care Pediatrics at Capital Plaza (5339 N. IH 35 around Hwy 290 and IH 35). 1−877−800−5722.

We had to switch pediatricians due to a recent change in insurance. We were really hesitant to do so with our baby boy being so young (4 months) and absolutely adoring his (now former) pediatrician. However, all the reviews are spot on! Dr. B is absolutely amazing! Super personable and knowledgeable. We feel so blessed to have found him; he made the switch so easy. We have to travel an hour in traffic but it is worth it! (Now located at Lone Star Circle of Care in Capitol Plaza of IH 35 N). Highly recommend!

Dr. Bocchicchio is now at Dell Children’s Circle of Care — Capital Plaza
Address is:
5339 North IH35, Suite 100, Austin, TX

Our infant son had a medical problem that required quick intervention. Dr. B was on top of everything, made sure we got in to see the specialist right away, followed up with the specialist and really kept everything on track. He also followed up with the staff who did the MRI and reviewed those findings with the MRI staff and the specialist. He was absolutely amazing.
He is an easily approachable person who always spends plenty of time with us; he has an easy going attitude with parents and children alike.
We were dismayed when he left ARC and have been scouring the Internet to find him so we can have him re-​assigned as the primary care doctor for my son. We really miss him!

I was so dismayed to receive the letter saying that Dr. Bocchicchio is no longer practicing at ARC. My child was one of his patients for 8.5 years, since we adopted her as a baby. Dr. B, after getting the results of my daughter’s initial bloodwork, realized she needed to be tested to see if she was a carrier for a rare (in the U.S.) genetic blood disorder. The test Dr. B. ordered confirmed she is a carrier — crucial information to know when she reaches reproductive age. Dr. Bocchicchio has also been great for routine well child and health issues, as well. Very unhappy that he has left ARC (been forced to leave?), and hope I can learn where he ends up practicing next. Please, all — if you hear anything, be sure to post a follow-​up!

I recently found out that Dr. Bocchicchio was «no longer with» Austin Regional Clinic and I feel compelled to write a review here. «Dr. B.» was my 9-​year-​old son’s pediatrician for most of his life. I recommended him to family and friends and thought he was so nice, friendly and smart. He was always so good with my son and took his time with us on each visit, always answering my questions and reassuring me when I had a concern. The only reason I am not following him to his new practice is that we had seen another pedi in the office (Dr. Booker) and I always liked him. I like the availability of ARC doctors and their After-​Hours Clinic; otherwise I would transfer to Dr. Bocchicchio’s new office. I wish him the very best in his new practice.

I just had the same experience. ARC wouldn’t even tell me if he is still in Austin.

We were so lucky to have Dr. Bocchicchio as pediatrician when we discovered that our 5 months old daughter was sick.
He understood from the first sintoms that her situation was really serious and we will never be thankful enough to him and his team. Nurse Mary is the absolutely wonderful!

Do not go to Dr. Jeffery Bochicchio! He is only for children that don’t have ANY problems. We have been using him for 2 years and he still does not know who we are when we come in the door. It is hard to get the references you need from him. He is VERY disingenuous. When there is a problem with your child he does not direct you or give you references. The ONLY 2 references he gave me, one number was disconnected and the other was for kids not in my daughters age group. He ACTS like he cares. Even when I was begging him to help because my daughter needs help with OT and PT he gave me NO resources and refused to issue an OT prescription when it is very obvious my daughter needs help. He did not ONCE ask to see how she walks when I had been telling him again and again she is VERY clumsy, toe walks and is pigeon toed. Don’t use this doctor unless all you care about is getting your standard check ups.

We really like Dr. B. We transferred to him after seeing Dr. Amy Alcorn (who is also great) as we moved up north. He is very self-​effacing and just a regular guy which my kids like as he is not intimidating at all. He doesn’t wear a white coat and just like the other reviewer said he does call all the little kiddos «peanut.» Plus, we LOVE his nurse Mary. She is phenomenal. If she ever left, I would be very upset. He is super.

We love Dr. B! Austin Regional Clinic at Anderson Mill is a great Doctor’s office. The staff is very courteous and always gives us reminder phone calls. Doctor Bocchicchio’s nurse, Nurse Mary, is very friendly and both of my kids love her. She is very sweet and always puts us at ease while also taking the kids’ vitals, charting their symptoms, etc. Even while giving shots, she is a pro! Dr. Bocchicchio is a great pediatrician. He always answers all of my questions and I never feel rushed with him. He is thorough with his exams and has never pushed antibiotics for my kids unless he knew they were absolutely necessary. My daughter has a congenital heart murmur which requires yearly follow-​up and Dr. B referred us to a great pediatric cardiologist here in Austin to answer all of our questions. Dr. B. is also very good with both kids and always calls them «peanut» which is cute. He knows his stuff. I would highly recommend him and his staff. We have always been able to get in to see him, even last minute. They also have after-​hours care at another location. The nurses are also available to evaluate my concerns and tell me whether or not it is something that I need to be worried about, bring my child in for, etc. I really like this office.
