My three children go to Newark Pediatrics and we love it. I left Pediatrics Associates at Christiana Hospital and came here. Everyone is very nice, kind, and warm welcoming. The doctors are amazing and listen to your concerns. I would definitely recommend Newark Pediatrics.

My daughter has been a patient of Dr. Walker since birth, she is 14. I followed him from Limestone and will never bring my daughter to anyone else. My daughter is so comfortable with him but makes sure we are both comfortable as well. I have NEVER EVER run into a problem with the staff. The front desk staff has always been so kind, compassionate, and friendly. If I ever had a problem with billing, they either corrected it or worked with me. I always suggest Newark Pedatrics for new parents.

I have 2 children (now 4 and 11) that Dr. Walker has cared for since birth. He has always been the most spectacular and patient doctor. Helpful even when we were out of town. He truly understands a child's perspective. We are sadly moving away and wish we could take him with us. Dr. Stewart is also very kind and knowledgeable, sweet man. Some of the office staff could benefit from customer service training. This is my only reason for not giving 5 stars.

Dr. Stewart is the best pediatrician I've ever had. He is very thorough, comforting, and sweet. He's older and very wise. I love that he relies on both old school and modern medicine. It's nice to have someone who takes the time to ease new parent jitters and give you confidence before you leave the office. I have met with Dr. Walker twice he is also a good pediatrician. He is friendly and knowledgeable. The front desk is okay could be more friendlier. The on call pediatrician system is amazing they call you back in a reasonable timeframe. The office is a bit outdated but inviting.
