• Sue M Eric Dr. Heaphy is THE BEST PEDIATRICIAN WE’VE EVER KNOWN! Your children & your family will be blessed by this man. His love & care for his patients, his kindness & compassion, AND his bedside manner, are NOT THE NORM. He consistently exceeds expectations, there is never a rush to move onto the next patient. He takes his time & thoroughly addresses every question you may have. We are blessed & grateful to have him as our Pediatrician/Physician, especially as we steward our 3 sons into adulthood. The boys have been under Dr. Heaphy’s care since 2012, over 12 years now, & I would never take them anywhere else. Our boys began with Dr. Heaphy at wee ages 1, 3, & 5; they are now 13, 15, & 17. And if you have critical care needs, he will partner with you NO MATTER WHAT IT TAKES to ensure that your child gets the absolute best care possible. There has not been a moment when my kids were not seen when they needed to be, were not supported when they needed to be supported, ¬t cared for in the way they needed, WHEN they needed it (& my kids have had MAJOR health problems yet it’s always immediately addressed with SAME DAY appts, or coordinated visits to the hospital or labs or radiological needs for broken bones!!) In general, Pediatric Professional Association (PPA) is an amazing Organization & Team. If Dr. Heaphy is not in the office for some reason, there is ALWAYS another pediatrician that will see your kiddos same day, which is another awesome attribute of this group. No add’l paperwork, no “transferring data”, it’s seamlessly integrated, when you come in, you just see another amazing Pediatrician. This team of doctors share every element of your child’s background, transparently so that when your child & you arrive, the Pediatrician you see is 100% up-to-date on your child’s needs, making it so easy for a parent to appreciate the team. The front staff offer flexibility & accommodate anything & everything medically your child needs (or that you need for your child in an incredible timely manner) & ensure your child is visited by a Dr as quickly as possible (no LONG wait times!!) The nursing staff are loving, kind, supportive & caring, I would NOT want my boys cared for by ANY OTHER pediatric group nor Dr in the KC area! All 3 boys, now 13, 15, & 17 have NEVER felt mis-cared for, mislead or even AFRAID of Dr. Heaphy NOR his nursing team. My babes started with PPA at such a young age & have been blessed their entire lives by this team, even when emergencies & critical care needs arise, PPA is connected to local hospitals to ensure the optimal care for your babes. Praise God for this organization🙏🏻🙌🏻. They are amazing. We are so blessed to have found them back in 2012😇🩶.

• Megan L My son has been going to this office since he was born. I’ve always had a wonderful experience. They are so friendly with him and gentle it puts my mind at ease. And anytime I’ve had questions or concerns they have got back to me in a timely manner. My son loves going and seeing his dr and loves his nurse!

• Jaime F I have known the physicians, nurses, and staff at this practice since 2022, and they represent themselves and the practice with the highest of standards. The Peds practice strives to give the highest of care to all patients. Each physician brings their own individual touch to the office, and you would be lucky to have your children seen by any of them.

• Amanda S Our daughters have both been seeing Dr. Beck since they were born and we absolutely love her! We have always been able to get in same day for sick appointments and front desk staff have always been kind and helpful. Dr. Beck was able to immediately identify a rare infection that my oldest had when she was 9 months old, and she also called ahead to children’s mercy so they knew we were coming. They care about their patients and their families and it shows.

• Annie G We absolutely love Dr. Beck and all the staff at PPA! We’ve been seeing her since our daughter was born 3 years ago and she treats both of our kids now. We have always felt heard, valued and supported. She took time to ensure both babies were latching correctly at their first appointments, supported us when making feeding decisions and takes a balanced approach when giving advice of what’s best and what’s realistic. I’ve called/visited for things that I felt could be silly or embarrassing if I might have been overreacting and have always felt encouraged to reach out to them when I’m unsure and I have no hesitation to do so.

• Samuel E My wife and I both went to this practice as children and looked nowhere else when our first child needed a pediatrician. Its clear that kindness, critical thought, and collaborative effort are baked into the philosophy of PPA. Top notch doctors and nurses that have you and your child’s best interest at heart. Cannot recommend enough.

• Aaron B I couldn't ask for a better team to take care of my little one. From emergencies to standard check ups, the entire team, staff, nurses, and doctors have all been above and beyond in assisting. They've been nothing but supportive through many ups and downs and I'm forever grateful.

• Staci H We have been with this office for 12+ years and several kids. Can’t say enough positive things about the office! The front desk staff is always smiling and welcoming, the nursing staff are efficient and friendly. All the behind the scenes people are never afraid to jump in and help, they really work as a team! The doctors are top notch, each has a different personality and they all complement each other. We see Dr. Filardi who we just love. She is so sweet, kind and reassuring to the kids as well as respectful to the parents. She really takes her time to listen and is a master at figuring out complicated cases. When she’s not in office we are happy to see one of the other partners, they are all great! We highly recommend this office! ❤️

• Mariah A I would like to start by saying, my experience with Dr. Fahlgren has been great. She cares for and adores her babies at her practice and wants to see them at their best. She handled the circ of our first born at the hospital and has been our ped for the first four months of his life. She has excellent communication skills, great attitude and bedside manor and does a thorough job of explaining all of the first time parent expectations and questions. We are no longer seeing this practice for their stance on vaccination as we declined all vaccinations. We were advised to find another practice who supports those beliefs. I support this recommendation and appreciate the forthcoming and communicative stance toward non vaccinated children at their practice. My only concern and why I can’t give the office full five stars is that when documentation and clinical trial evidence was requested regarding the safety and effectiveness of the suggested vaccination schedule (the practice maintains the stance and support of the CDC schedule) Dr. Fahlgren could not and would not provide me with supporting documentation (aside from CDC website) for the safety and effectiveness of the vaccines. If I can suggest anything to a parent or new parent- rather than accepting all information from someone of a superior education and doctorate level degree, have a healthy dose of speculation and ask for supporting documentation to use your own critical thinking when deciding what’s best for your child and your family. Thank you for your treatment and care PPA. Prayers for the group that you consider counter arguments and counter evidence to what you’ve learned in your many years of education. I also pray that you impose your critical thinking skills and give the opposition consideration via research of the possibility of other evidence/conclusions in your practice.
