Primary Pediatrics

"I’m highly disappointed at the staff in this office-silver spring location. They are very rude and lack compassion and empathy which is very essential and a cornerstone quality in healthcare. All they care about is money, without giving regards to your sick child. They charged for a missed appointment from sometime ago, which was inadvertently missed. As a result they declined seeing a toddler who needed argent care until payment of $25 was received; can you imagine that. That is very pathetic and appalling, given that we have never missed an appointment or own the office any money. Also, I have had other encounters which I didn’t really pay much attention to but this time around I know for sure I have to sick care somewhere else. I am definitely withdrawing my kids from this practice. The provider was notified of the situation and did nothing to address. What a shame! I certainly don’t want to entrust my children care to some doctor whose primary goal is money."

"Dr. Perdue is and will be the only doctor for my children! She is THE ABSOLUTE BEST! She keeps me involved and always marks the best decision based on the facts and situations not on personal feeling and we need that! She is a true gem!"

"was calling to the laurel location to get some records from my old pediatrician (dr perdue) & whoever was answering phones around 4:30-5pm was really rude. asked if dr. perdue would potentially have records from her time in texas & the person spoke to me as if I was stupid for asking that, then said “why didn’t you reach out to the old practice”. the old practice is closed, and I could’ve explained that had I not been condescended by whomever was on the other line and thought they knew more than me. whomever that is, they should do something other than answering phones if they are going to act so annoyed that someone would do something so simple as call a doctor’s office for records. seriously, this is why people sometimes don’t get medical care at all. get it together."

"My daughter has seen Dr. Angela Gadsby (who has since retired) and now Dr. Emily Barrios and I have nothing but great things to say! It is so easy to make an appointment or schedule an emergency appointment, virtual or in person. The nurses are SO nice and efficient, talkative, and supportive. I truly feel like everyone we have encountered really cares about us and knows what they're doing. The online portal is very easy to access and helpful to have! The receptionists are always so helpful and nice, which is really a relief because sometimes just calling into a doctors office can be challenging. My daughter has been with this practice for almost 2 years now and I really have nothing but positive things to say. I am a VERY anxious and nervous mom, so take it from me... if you're looking for a good pediatricians office, you've found it!"

"I cannot say enough at Dr. Perdue and the entire staff at Primary Pediatrics, Laurel office! From the sweetest people at check in to the quick wait times and super friendly nurses down to the amazing Dr. Perdue (a Black woman physician might I add) we are always blown away at the service. We have even used their 24hr call service when our daughter was feeling sick in the middle of the night, and they were just as patient, friendly, and competent. All in all, we are happy we chose Dr. Perdue as soon as our daughter was born, and we will be forever patients (well, until my kids turn 18 lol)! Thank you so much, Primary Pediatrics!"
