Des Moines Pediatric and Adolescent Clinic

"Both my kids go here my son since he was 8 months and now my daughter both were preemie babies and I feel the staff accommodated them and my schedule plus any extra needs they my have had with such grace! Doc Fornoff is listens to my concerns and helps make a plan that fits me and babies needs my kids have grown/growing phenomenally thank you guys!!! I highly recommend this clinic."

"Dr. Fornoff at the Beaverdale clinic is always patient, kind, and welcoming to my kiddos. They feel safe and cared for and I know they are too! He stops to chat with me, remembers who we are when we come in each year, and is a great doctor caring for my children. From newborn through toddlerhood we have had great experiences. The lobby is fun for kids and the rooms feature fun artwork, toys, and are bright and colorful so kids feel at home! My only complaint is that they often run very late throughout the day and can have 30+ minute wait times past the scheduled appointment time. I typically try to schedule for the first thing in the morning to avoid the issue but know as school ages start that will get harder."

"Sally Twedt is fantastic, 6 stars to her! Every member of the medical staff is great. The front desk staff need serious improvement. We needed to get in touch with Sally after hours but the front desk staff had not switched the phones to the after-hours service so we went to the emergency room. The next morning Sally apologized and gave me her direct cell phone number. We were billed for transferring out kids files to a new doctor and when I explained I would not be paying the $30 fee for a $1350 trip to the emergency room the front desk staff said "ok" without offering any kind of apology. It sucks to not keep seeing Sally but the front desk staff are unacceptably bad at their job."

"We had a baby this year. One of our nurses at the hospital recommended this clinic. I am so impressed. We have seen three providers and several nurses. Everyone has an upbeat, positive attitude. They are very prompt when booking appointments and getting advice by phone. I would highly recommend this clinic to anyone looking for a good pediatrician."

"I can’t say enough great things about this office and it’s staff. They have an amazing group of doctors and nurses who truly know how to do their jobs and make your child feel not just like a patient but like family. They take interest in them and the parents as well. We have had nothing but positive experiences here and I could never imagine taking our kids any where else. They work hard at getting you seen on the day you call which is great and doesn’t happen very often other places. The staff is very respectful and out going. The girls at the front desk are always great at what they do and extremely polite not just in person but on the phone as well. I know if they are busy at the office it’s because they are talking care of other kiddos and spending the time necessary that they deserve. They don’t rush you in your appointment. The listen to all of your concerns and questions. This is the place to be!!!"
