Andrew Katz, MD

Dr. Katz is a wonderful pediatrician. We are beyond thrilled with him. He takes the time to talk to ask us, asks questions and provides us great advice. He has a great personality and he is wonderful with our daughter. Office staff are very accommodating and friendly.

Awesome doctor that takes his time to check up on you. Even though his schedule is picked he makes the effort with patients.

Dr. Katz ia the second pediatrician we found in Elk Grove. We are beyond thrilled to have foind him! Our boys are excited to see him and when our newest went in for his newborn check up our older two were telling him not to worry because Dr. Katz was nice and would find monkeys in his ears! My husband likes to take the boys in for their appointments because the team is always friendly and Dr. Katz always gives real advice amd doesn’t make you feel rushed. He cares for his patients amd when you have a question or are worried he does an excellent job of calming your worries!

I love Dr Katz. My kids have been seeing him for about 8 years. I went through several pediatricians before we found him and we have always received the best care possible. The office gets booked up and you will have to wait but it’s worth that little inconvenience.

We received a personal call early this morning from Dr. Katz regarding the lab results for our little girl who was recently diagnosed as having Henoch-​Schönlein purpura (HSP). My wife and I thought that it was some type of normal baby rash, but later found out that it was a rare autoimmune disease. After my wife had left the appointment, I met with individually to ask the hard questions and make sure I understood the diagnosis and how we should move forward. One of the most important things that I like about Dr. Katz is that he was very clear that we should take her to the pediatric emergency room at UC Davis if she begin having certain life threatening symptoms. We have a follow up appointment with him next week to see how things are progressing. I’m glad we have Dr. Katz as our kids pediatrician.

My kids been going to him for years, he is awesome, super friendly and funny. He makes us feel very comfortable.

I don’t normally write reviews and I always feel terrible since I use Unilocal quite often but I felt a responsibility to write a review regarding Dr. Andy Katz. We found Dr. Katz through our yoga studio, he was teaching new parents all about how to care for newbors/​infants. We just knew right away that was the kind of doctor we wanted for our daughter. He works in Elk Grove and we live in Sacramento so it was definitely a decision that we thought long and hard about. Let me just say this, «He was and is worth the drive!»
On our daughters 6 month check up, Dr. Katz noticed while doing the eye exam that she had an eye abnormality. Very calmly, he had the nurse come in and confirm his diagnosis with a secondary eye exam using a very interesting device (I have no idea the name of it). Anyway, his diagnosis was correct that she was severely hypermetropic and her red light reflex was abnormal. He sent us to see an ophthalmologist and she told us that most pediatricians do not have the skill to see something like this from just a quick eye exam. She told us that we had a fantastic pediatrician and that he basically saved our daughters vision. She may still need to wear glasses but that it because it was caught early enough that it is correctable and not permanent.
I would highly recommend Dr. Katz to all of my friends and family. He is excellent and I am very thankful for his attention to detail!

Dr Katz is awesome! He has been our sons’ doctor since we moved here 2 years ago.
Funny as all heck and a great person. He actually listens!
