Patients appreciate
Dr. Vicki Popejoy receives overwhelmingly positive feedback for her exceptional listening skills and patient-centered approach. Reviewers consistently praise her for taking time with patients, never rushing appointments, and making both children and parents feel heard and valued. Her warm, caring bedside manner is frequently highlighted, with many noting her kindness, compassion, and ability to connect with pediatric patients in ways that put them at ease. Parents appreciate her thoroughness in assessments, her willingness to investigate underlying conditions rather than providing superficial care, and her commitment to developing quality action plans. Multiple long-term patients express deep loyalty, with some staying with her for over a decade. Her knowledge, communication skills, and genuine love for her practice are evident to families, and many describe her as going above and beyond, including personally calling with test results and accommodating urgent appointments.
Patients also share
The primary area for improvement identified in the reviews relates to wait times and scheduling challenges. Several patients mention that wait times can be longer than expected, with one noting that appointments sometimes run slow. Another reviewer comments that while Dr. Popejoy is excellent, it can take months to secure an appointment with her. One patient noted concerns about the practice's flexibility regarding alternative vaccine schedules. However, these criticisms are notably minimal compared to the volume of positive feedback, and at least one reviewer explicitly states they would gladly wait over an hour to see Dr. Popejoy given the quality of care received.
