Testimonial
Our son developed a high fever the night before our flight, prompting concern. Rather than risk further exposure at the ER, we discovered Kids 1st online around 10pm. From the moment I spoke with Michael, I knew we were in capable hands. Michael swiftly arranged for a provider to come to our home, equipped with everything needed to assess our son, even bringing along stickers to ease his worries. Thanks to their thorough evaluation, we received clearance for our morning flight.
Additionally, the efficiency of the respiratory panel test was remarkable; we had results the same night, conveniently uploaded to their portal. When we visited our pediatrician the next day, she commended us for bringing the panel results, emphasizing their importance for proper diagnosis and treatment.
Kids 1st is an essential resource for any parent in Miami; their prompt, professional, and comprehensive care made all the difference for us.

Testimonial
Both of our girls had become really sick and having recently had a poor experience at an urgent care near the house, we decided to try out Kids 1st and we are so glad we did. Our girls were able to comfortably rest at home while waiting for our scheduled appointment time instead of anxiously and uncomfortably in a waiting room. They were incredibly attentive and caring with our girls and took the time to patiently address all of our concerns and thoroughly explain everything to us. They will definitely be our go to in the future!

I highly recommend Kids1st. This unbelievably experienced team's concierge service is not subscription based. It's call when you need them. I have not experienced this much passion and beyond excellent service in this environment since my 3.5-year old was born. Dr Lisa Marie is a saint. Any mom's dream when your most precious little people are hurting or not well. Don't hesitate, just call them.
