Marian R Birdsall, MD

I just have to tell the world about how much my family and I LOVE Dr. Birdsall!!! I believe that finding a good doctor is extremely hard these days. So many «referral services» can only tell you about a doctor’s credentials or what insurance they accept, like check boxes on a form. They give you no idea about whether the doctor is a good doctor or not. There is no check box on a form for «great personality» or «Good bedside manner.» I am so thrilled that we finally found a great pediatrician that we can trust and feel comfortable with. I just don’t think doctors like Dr. Birdsall exist anymore and that is why we feel so extremely fortunate to have found her.
Our first visit with Dr. Birdsall was for our oldest son’s school sports physical. I loved that she told us about herself and that she seemed genuinely interested in getting to know our family. I also noticed that she smiled and laughed a lot while interacting with my son. You can tell that she really loves her job and cares about her patients. My son really liked Dr. Birdsall too, and he didn’t mind the examination and a shot. During our visit, I felt like I really got to know Dr. Birdsall and I found her to be a super genuine and open-​minded person.
Also, one time I called the office with a question and instead of my call being transferred to a nurse, it was transferred to Dr. Birdsall. I’ve never had a doctor take my calls before. That’s normally fine because I know that doctors are busy but I am just so impressed by the personal service that Dr. Birdsall offers.
The doctor’s office is also really nice too. It is clean and very child friendly. Everyone we met in the office was very helpful and efficient. They know what they are doing! You don’t find that everywhere.
Anyways, if you haven’t been able to find the right pediatrician for your family, you should definitely make an appointment with Dr. Birdsall. We are so happy that we did!

Dr. Birdsall is the best! We love her 9 am drop in appointments. She’s thorough and kind. Gives great advice and very reassuring. Plus she’s so bubbly and beautiful. My son loves her and so do I. I’ve never seen her impatient or in a bad mood. Her sweetness reassure the kids.

Dr Birdsall cared for my oldest son until he went to college and continues to care for my 13 year old son. She is the bomb. Both of my boys adore her. She has cared for both through some pretty rough illnesses. We love and trust her. We have NEVER had any kind of negative experience. Her office staff is kind, caring and knowledgeable. We love the closer location. We also love Dr. Benway and feel fortunate to have these two doctors caring for our kids.

We love Dr. Birdsall. She has been our childrens’ doctor for over 6 years. She is wonderful with little ones as well as teenagers.

Dr. Birdsall is THE BEST pediatriacian. Our 3 kids absolutely adore her. She goes out of her way to engage them, make them comfortable — which is saying a lot when she can get a pre-​teen at the doctor’s office to have a substantive conversation with her! Plus she is great with us parents, gives us the info we need. Our kids are in great hands with her. Highly recommend!

Our family is a big fan of Dr. Birdsall. She talks to the kids and the parents and understands our needs.

We have been disappointed with Dr. Birdsall’s front office operation. We made an appointment, they confirmed it, but when we showed up, they refused to honor the appointment. We took the children out of school, and spent the time to go to the appointment, only to be turned away when we got there. Dr. Birdsall had been the children’s pediatrician for several years, but we were told that because she had changed locations, the children were no longer her patients. While she has been a good doctor, this kind of customer service is simply inexcusable.

We couldn’t agree more about how great Dr. Birdsall is. She’s always smiling and laughing, but most impressively she really talks to our kids. She asks about what they’re doing and does remember what they told her the last time they saw her. 9:00 drop in hour is great and shows that she understands we can’t all plan ahead with our kids. Could not give her a stronger endorsement.

Dr. Birdsall is awesome. My best friend told me about her when I was pregnant with our last child (#6). I’ve seen a handful of pediatricians in my life time but never had one worth writing home about… good just never GREAT. Until after 16 years of parenting I walk into La Case Verde Pediatrics. Dr. Birdsal is not only our 7 month olds pediatrician now but I have transfer ed 4 of the other 5 children under care. All of the kids think shes great.
Shes wonderful with kids remembers everything… so knowledgeable, honest and genuine AND she wears great shoes! She has two of her own children and is super hip… its like being in the company of your own BFF! lol.
They take drop ins from 9 to 10 am for sick children and you can usually get an appointment right away if you don’t need a «drop» in. They have an advice line and after hours clinic and are affiliated with John Muir.
My husband has taken one of our girls to see Dr. Asta when Birdsall was out… and he said she was great too.
They get my 5 stars!
