Children’s Medical Center - Lutz

"The Palm Harbor office was great in 2019 and 2020. I came back and started with the Lutz location in 2023 for 6 months they told me they will give me referrals I never got one. My child is having an allergy issue to foods I believe it’s gluten I was told I’d get a referral 3 months ago for that it’s still has not been done and we have military insurance. See how the Military is treated by these people. Then my child has urinary issues first they said it’s behavior, then they said it’s constipation, now six months later I have not been referred to a pediatric urologist. My child has had UTI issues 1 year. I gave my child miralax for a month still the same issue. I keep giving money to them getting no results. I came here with a physical that I had got from the military a month prior they refused to fill out the FL physical sheet they said they want me to pay for another physical. Yet we paid for an office visit. How do I get help for my child as a mom. Maybe it’s only about the money not making sure my baby is healthy. My kid has a cough for over a month no help. People think I’m not taking her to the doctor but I do and get the response kids can have a lingering cough after being sick. I need the head doctor of this practice to contact me I asked they said it can’t be done. It was refused."

"Dr. Farooqi always makes me and my daughter feel super welcome. She has seen my daughter almost since she was born at the Trinity location, but once she moved to lutz, I couldn't lose her, so the 45-minute drive is worth it. I plan to take my little one that is coming in less than a month to her. I highly recommend this practice."

"Dr. Boothe is by far the best pediatrician I've encountered. She's personal and professional. She has that "mom" touch that makes my kids so relaxed going to the doctor. The entire staff from appointment setting and checking in and nurses are all phenomenal. So grateful we found her! We've been with her now for 4 years and I hope she sees my kids off to college! *picture taken pre-pandemic*"

"We have been going to Children's Medical Center of Lutz since my son was born in November of 2019. They have always been professional and kind and we have never had a problem getting the dates or times we need or getting in quickly for emergencies or last minute as needed. We see Dr. Christine Booth and I can't say enough good things about her. She is so sweet and kind, is very laid back, but will answer any question you ask with a smile and full of fact based information. She also has 4 kids of her own so she can offer you not only her science based opinion and facts, but her own motherly experience which is great for a 1st time mom like myself. I highly recommend Dr. Booth and her office to anyone in need of a pediatrician."

"Dr. Christine Booth is absolutely amazing. She has between seeing my daughter (who had recently turned two) since she was born. Dr. Booth literally she saw her in the hospital on a Saturday. We had interviewed many pediatrics prior to having our baby and also loved the fact that Dr. Booth has four children of her own!! If the baby was/is ever sick, Dr. Booth and her staff assure the baby is seen the same day I call. I also love how Dr. Booth is very sympathetic towards my daughter and also does not judge on your decisions you make for your child. She will give her opinion, yet supports what you decide as a parent. Anytime I ask her a question during the office visit for the baby, she not only provides me with a detailed explanation, she goes a step further and prints out a document related to our discussion. For instance, I inquired about my daughter's sleeping pattern and how I can get her to sleep through the night. Dr. Booth not only explained her many years of knowledge and experience related to helping children sleep through the night, she provided me with detailed information from multiple websites as well as printed them out, thus having a reference to look back on once back at home. I also love how the NPCMC is kid friendly. Every exam room is themed, for instance once room may be themed with frozen and have elsa on the wall, etc. If you want your child to have a pediatrician who truly cares about your child and will help you and your child/children through anything, I highly suggest/recommend Dr. Booth and the staff of NPCMC!! Great place and my daughter loves looking at the fish in the front office as well as watching tv whIle we wait to aid in the entertainment factor (in the Lutz location) as an added bonus!!"
