The visit was a little hard to talk and ask questions as a trainee was with the doctor. It just seemed to take longer than normal and was confusing
Dr. Joseph is terrific! She's very easy to understand, and very patient. We have no problem recommending her to others!
This was the first time we were seen by Dr. Joseph and I wouldn't want to see any other provider in the practice. I felt that we were taken very seriously and she was concerned for my child.
My son has been having weight gain issues a d some feeding concerns. Dr. Joseph gave me tons of tips and suggestions to help overcome the issues (things I hadn't known were possible, such as fortifying rest milk). Also, there were other concerns since he was born and she pointed me in the right direction to get the best answers for our son.
I am very pleased with Dr. Joseph and all of the medical staff at Children's Monroeville. They never make me feel like I have a dumb question and always say call us for anything. there is an amazing staff there!
Very friendly&caring with children. Very easy to speak with Dr. and nurses. They actually listened to what I had to say!
overall good experience.
I thought the doctor and nurse were excellent, the answered my questions and concerns in a way that made feel that they cared. They were also understanding to my children's shyness.
I strongly expressed my concern for my daughter to be checked for a B12 deficiency. No B12 values were checked!
Dr Joseph has called me personally in the past when my daughter was having a medical issue and once called her hospital room when she saw she was admitted. In the fast world we live in now that doesn't happen very often. Dr Joseph was my pediatrician growing up and I feel blessed to have her as my children's doctor.
good experience
we've been seeing Dr. Joseph for years and we live her.
Dr. Joseph spent the time needed and was exceptional in listening to our concerns.
I Love CCP Monroeville practice. Dr. Joseph & Dr. Schott are my favorites but ALL staff is always very helpful & knowledgeable, friendly & nice. I recommend them to anyone looking for a pediatrician. They were my doctors as a child & now I bring my kids to see them.
i have very good experience and i am very much satisfy with my Daughter pedritic
We love Dr. Joseph!
great visit- everyone was excellent
Very good.
very good
Dr. Joseph always takes the time to answer any questions I may have. She is an excellent pediatrician.
team shows a high level of concern for our child.
Extremely fast, all under 7 minutes.. Barely enough time to answer my most urgent questions. Barely enough time to examine my child thorougly. Why does it have to be that fast?
i love this Doctor , she is so personal and take the time
Dr. Joseph was best
I really like Dr. Joseph and the manner in which she treats my Grandson and his issues - she is patient with him and I truly appreciate her.
we recently transferred to your group and couldn't be more happy!!!!
Dr. Joseph has always been thorough and caring with all 4 of my children.
When a parent is concerned about something regarding achild's health, I think it's important that the concern is completely addressed. even if the care provider doesn't share the concern, it is not enough to simply throw your hands up in their air and respond with, "well that's just the way it is!" When a parent asks for an explaination, an explaination should be provided. My husband and I left our son's appointment feeling just as concerned as we did when we arrived.
Dr Joseph was nice. she seemed to be in a bit of a hurry, but my daughter didn't require any medical attention. I can understand the doctors are trying to keep up with a busy schedule and spending more time with sick children.
Dr Joseph is very smart and easy to understand. She is an asset to Upmc
So grateful to have Dr. Joseph taking care of my kids
Came to office without an appointment and we were in and out in about 20 minutes. Excellent service and all questions answered!
Dr. Joseph was very helpful on writing a script for my older daughter as well as her sister for the HPV shot . It was very convenient.
Love that office and the staff!! Dr. Joseph is the best!!
my daughter has Ben through so much in the last few years regarding her health. I found Dr Joseph's constant level of compassion & professionalism to be a welcome relief. We were always treated with respect.
Dr. Joseph is amazing. She always takes the time to thoroughly answer any questions.
Very detailed and friendly. This was my first visit to this practice with my child and I had a great experience
Love Dr Joseph
My son is fortunate to have excellent care providers who work with us to come up with plans and approaches on any items of concern. I feel very comfortable with the staff!
I love this practice of dovtors but I do perfer Dr. Joseph
We love Dr. Joseph! We love that she always knows about our son's scans, tests, etc. before walking into the exam room. She make us feel at ease.
I think Dr. Elaine Joseph is the BEST! My girls really like her! She is very honest and direct, but never offensive (I like that!). She is also very thorough, not just doing the physical exam, but she has a nice way of interacting with my children, speaking to them respectfully and making them feel comfortable, enabling them to communicate better with her.
I think Dr. Elaine Joseph is the BEST!!! My girls like her a lot! She has an "old school" type of approach, is very blunt & honest, but not offensive (I like that!). She is very thorough in her exam.
I've always had a good experience with Dr. Joseph and all of the other doctors and nurses at Monroeville Pediatrics.
All is great. Great provider. Personable. We changed providers recently only because my sister in law was seeing my girls for several years. She moved further away from us so we decided to go back to this provider. I have to say the wait time and the response we have received are even better then when we went to this provider years ago. Also, my youngest daughter was so afraid that she would not like the nurse who gave her the shot as she really liked the one we had with my sister in law. But all went well and I think the nurse here was so very nice and so did my daughter. I was worried about my daughter giving someone a hard time about getting a shot but it went great. Thank you.
good
It was nice to be seen on time, and Dr. Joseph took her time to answer our questions and thoroughly check our newborn.
Dr. Joseph has been my children's pediatrician for over 13 years with all three children. She is so good with kids and parents. Nurses are always great with kids, I would not go anywhere else.
She was very patient and understanding.
Dr. Joseph is wonderful. She takes her time with you, listens, and then explains very well.

All the Drs are very courteous and professional. Dr. Joseph has been our primary pediatrician for 25 years and was highly recommended to us by Dr. Lezek. She has never disappointed our expectation of a direct, thorough, courteous and patient professional with a "down to earth" personality. Thanks to the entire staff.
Absolutely love that practice and Dr. Joseph was wonderful. She diagnosed my daughter's symptoms with something that I had not heard of but was treated. Experts in your office and I trust you all!
It was excellent we are new patients there and we love it and the child is no longer afraid of the dr
Dr. Joseph is the best!
They are always great.
I have never had a bad experience with anything when it comes to this practice. I highly recommend them to anyone looking for a pediatrician.

We were very displeased at this appointment and will be switching providers.
We love Dr. Joseph. She was my pediatrician and I wouldn't take my children anywhere else. :)
