Going into our first appointment I was super nervouShow mores about if we had picked the right doctor and all I can say is from the moment Dr. Sami introduced himself i was instantly calmed and reassured that we made a great choice!

This practice made a huge, positive first impression on me and my family. I came in with my husband and daughter, and the nurses were so nice and patient. The doctor was also incredibly thorough, personable and made me feel heard about the concerns of my child. I will be sticking with them and I look forward to our next visit.

Dr. Sami is a phenomenal physician. He’s taken time to understand my son and after a significant leg fracture, he’s given us so much support. He listens and doesn’t judge nor does he push anything on you that you don’t want for your kids.
So glad we found Dr. Sami. Me and my family absolutely love him

Professional and on time.
My kids have been going to Lapeer Pediatrics since my son was born 13 years ago. My complaints these past 13 years are very minimal, mostly being just staff issues at the time. However I went on their website outside of office hours to get an appointment for my daughter, who had been struggling a cough for over a week at that point. The website gave me an appt time of 2:10pm and that someone would call me to confirm that appt during business hours. 3 hours into their work day, I called to ask about the appt. I was told that the online appt option never guarantees an appt and that they were all booked up and my daughter couldn't be seen. I expressed my frustration about this asking what the point of an online scheduling option is if it's not upheld. She said they've talked to the doctors about that and have had complaints but the doctors don't do anything to change it. I told her I would leave a review expressing my frustration and she encouraged me to do so. So here is my review letting others know not to schedule online. And to the doctors that apparently know of this issue, I will adjust my review when the scheduling option is either removed from the website or it actually works.
Dr. Sami was very patient, & understanding of my concerns with my child and he took every step their was to reassure and diagnose as accurately as to what it was.
I am very happy to have pediatricians like them for my children. During the last visit, Dr. A Mititelu helped my teenager a lot by listening to her carefully , My daugher is happy with her. Thank you very much for your great service. I will always recommend you
They very patient with you and go above and beyond in helping your kids live a healthy life. And happy life.
Really great staff they are nice and friendly and really great answering my questions and is eager to help my kids.
Dr. Sami is amazing. He’s so transparent, supportive, helpful and great with kids. On top of all that he allows space for the parent to be the lead in making the best decisions for the child.
They go above and beyond in helping my kids. My kids old doctor didn't seem to want to do any tests for my kids. This doctor will do anything to help my kids to be healthy and happy.
Very comforting to all concerns, patient and understand.
I’ve been taking my children to lapeer pediatrics for the last 4 years after moving from out of state. I absolutely love Dr. Alex and Dr. Danielle. My girls used to be very nervous about going to the doctor but Dr. Alex has made them feel so comfortable that now they ask to go to the office to visit her. Dr Danielle is my newborn daughter’s doctor and she is so knowledgeable, she’s answered all my questions and made me feel really comfortable with choices around my babies care. I can’t say enough good things and highly recommend this office!
Great customer service! The Doctor was great with my 4 year old. Front office staff and nurses were super nice!
My son had a great appt. with Jennifer! She knew all the right things to say to him during his exam to get him to participate, she was thorough, patient, and very nice!
Daniell Hannah and Dr Sammi have gone above and beyond when it comes the health and safety of our Grandson.
