Testimonials

We really appreciate Dr. Crowe & this practice. They have taken such good care of our five children for twelve years. They are excellent with the kids & are great at explaining everything to my husband & me.

Our first appointment today was so great. I loved everything about the building as well as the nurses and doctor. I’ve been searching for months and I’m sooooo grateful to have found them.

Had a great experience with Dr Meier, she was great with my children….

Had to leave Pediatric Association and Dr Crowe for a short time but myself and especially my child are so happy to be back.

Dr. Meier is phenomenal and I trust her wholeheartedly with my most important little people. If you’re looking for a pediatrician in Joplin, she is the one.

We love Dr. Crowe she is super willing to talk and listen and I know she cares about her patients!

Great care provided by Pediatric Associates!

Very happy with the care she takes with each of my children. She has addressed ongoing concerns from a previous provider quickly to help each child.

Everything was good

As always very good service

Dr. Crowe is amazing and always listen and take pride in providing the best care for my children.

Love the care all my kiddos get from dr. Crowe

First time seeing her and she was wonderful

Dr. Meier is absolutely wonderful. She has been able to help my wife and myself be able to better help our son. She has taken wonderful care of our son.

Dr. Meier was very great in providing care and direction for my 8 year old son. She did a great job at going over information, making sure I understood everything, and helping me make the appropriate decisions. I didn’t feel as my son was just “another patient”. She truly cares. 100% recommend

Very engaging and kind to my son who was a little afraid/ shy to be at the doctors.

Great! Really listened, great with my kid. Very pleased

We absolutely love Dr. Meir and the crew they have been with my twins since birth and have always gave 100 their best

We are new to the city so I was seeking a good pediatrician that works well with kids and this place did just that. Very nice staff, professional and kind. Made us feel right at home!

Dr. Crowe is amazing. She’s always so attentive and patient. All of the staff there are great. Haven’t had a negative experience so far!

The best pediatrician I have seen in. very long time!

We've seen Dr. Meier four times now and have loved her every time. She listens to what I have to say and explains everything super well! I never leave without feeling reassured!

Love Dr Crowe she's awesome.

Two daughters in for check ups. Good service with all needs provided. Thanks.

I’m very disappointed with the care my daughter has received from one of the doctors at Pediatrics Associates. She’s been seriously ill for years, but this doctor has been consistently dismissive, rude, and quick to blame psychological issues instead of taking her physical symptoms seriously. We’ve had to fight just to be heard, and important care has been delayed because of it. Our children deserve better—doctors who listen, investigate, and truly care.

My wife and I have been happily served by the doctors for 7+years but will be seeking care elsewhere. This is due to the fact that due to their 3rd party contractor who processes billing you do not know when a conversation with a doctor during a routine wellness visit will become a "seeking care/Diagnosis" visit and be billed for a treatment you did not seek out in violation of Missouri 431.061. Though they will hide behind the general wellness consent form you signed and then inform you all their actions are in the best interest of the child which is not addressing the issue but rather redirecting the conversation to put you into a posture of shame and acceptance and not stand up for your children. The bill is not substantial enough to warrant taking to claims court. But I no longer have confidence in the company's administrative posture to feel comfortable to have a normal relational conversation with the actual doctor who is providing care lest it be turned into another Bill. Healthcare is built on trust of care and ability to dialog with doctors and Pediatric Associates of SW Missouri Billing Administration is a unseen barrier between the patient and the doctor that is only felt after the fact and will not be addressed or fixed later. During my yearly care visits I regularly have conversations with my doctor about migraine's or bone/musculature injuries that have happened between visits as they are interested in making sure I am healthy and informing me of options if I choose to proceed with the care but I am not billed for them unless I agree to proceed with the care. I've been informed this is not the case with this group's administration.

Positive experience/ knowledgeable.

My granddaughter has been going to Ped Assoc since a newborn. Dr Meier's and her staff have always been friendly courteous and willing to answer any questions asked during the exam in the visit. Even when the questions that are not relevant to the reason for being there. The building is very inviting with bright colors on the doors and finding the rooms assigned to the patients are very easy to find. I would recommend Ped Associates to anyone looking for a physician.

Always the best! Never matters who we see their all amazing but Crowe and my son have an amazing connection that makes the appointment seamless and easy.

Dr. Meier is amazing, we can’t imagine taking our son to any other provider!

Had an amazing experience today with dr.crowe!

Fast and very gentle

I had to get one of my kids in for a sick appointment. There was lots of availability and was able to pick a time that worked best for me.

The staff was very friendly when entering the building. The building is laid out in a way that it is easy to find the examining room. The decor in the hallways is appealing to look at. The nurses and doctor was very professional friendly and willing to answer questions asked of them whether large or small from whomever is asking the questions. I would recommend Dr. Meier’s to others looking for a physician for their family

So personable and great with kids!

She was quick to find what was going on with my child

Awesome fantastic and personable! Listens to concerns and answer any and all questions!

We’ve had a great experience with every provider we’ve seen at the office. However, Dr. Crow has been seeing our son since he was born and our daughter since that time as well.

Amazing dr

Dr Meier has been our families pediatrician for over 14 years, back when I was a scared first time mom walking into the old hospital building and taking the elevator up to her office! From first time mom worries, to hospital stays Dr Meier has always been compassionate and knowledgeable without judgement. I highly recommend Dr Meier and her staff!

I love it each time we come in here! Such a good experience with routine check ups and I feel like my concerns are always heard!

Dr. Meier was patient with us, took the time to listen to our concerns, thoroughly explain things and medications to us. We were provided with informational handouts and outside service recommendations.

Very inviting building with bright atmosphere within.Friendly staff at the front desk that assists in multiple ways. The nurses are professional and proficient. Dr. Meiers is very interested in the patients and listens to the answers to the questions asked by her. She takes the time to answer questions and concerns than the parents guardians caretakers may have.

The medical students Dr.Crowe had visit us was a champ. I had six kids with me and it never fails they are a wild bunch. Dr.Crowe is always amazing.

We so appreciate you guys!! You take such good care of our children & have seen us through some tough diagnoses. Thank you for being excellent at what you do & being so good with our kids.

We came from another doctor that we loved, because they retired. I was skeptical as a mom, to trust someone new. Dr. Meier is timely, compassionate, and very knowledgeable. She is quick to return calls and makes me, as a parent, very comfortable.

So nice

Dr Crowe does great with both of my kids! She listens to my concerns and addresses all of them. We are grateful for a Doctor who cares.

Dr. Crowe has always had the best demeanor when providing care. I always feel reassured after our visits.

Always listening to any concerns and is great with all of my kids

Love being able to check in early and avoid the waiting room. All employees are friendly and patient with my kids. I also love that they talk more with the kids then just asking the parents in front of kids. Keeping them involved in the whole process.

We always like going into your office . People at desk , nurses and m.d. always kind and helpful .

Dr Meier ordered the labs need to correctly identify what could be going on with my daughter. I was very happy with that first step to treat, if necessary, appropriately.

Great experience here!

I really Love this office. I have had the best care here. You guys have seen all my grandkids and great grandkids. I f i do have an issue it is taking care of properly.

Dr. Crowe and pediatric Association always give excellent care.

Great doctor !

The staff was friendly and professional! I’m excited for my daughter to have continued care through this office.

Dr. Crowe is amazing! She is so relatable and understanding with my teenagers. She takes her time and listens to what our concerns are. My kids get so excited when they know it's her, we are seeing. Thank you, Dr. Crowe, I feel like we got very lucky when we found her because it's like talking to a friend. She just gets it, and we are so grateful for her!

She was checked out very thoroughly and discussed all the symptoms with the patient.

Dr. Meier was kind and considerate. She answered all of our questions regarding vaccines and was flexible with what we felt comfortable with. She did great at educating us while not pressuring us any certain way. She did not make me feel crazy or stupid as I felt in conversations about vaccines while being a patient at hometown pediatrics in Joplin. I came in to the facility overwhelmed and anxious and left feeling heard and empowered to make the best decisions for my daughter. Thank you.

We always have a great experience. They take care of us really good.

We’ve been with pediatric associates for years and we love them!

Very good

She answered my questions but I would’ve liked it with better detail.

Dr. Meier is one of the best pediatricians I’ve ever had for my kids. She looks at the whole body. She doesn’t just turn to prescription medicine unless it’s needed. She considers homeopathic remedies so my kids are very healthy and have taken few prescription meds. If your child does have a problem or special need, she’s amazing with her resources and aggressiveness to help!

Went well

Lve her

Responsive. Well treated. Clean. Thorough.

It’s good doctor

Extremely good !!!

Love the ppl n this office. So nice, understanding, they listen to u, always there if needed.

We had a great experience. All the staff were interactive and we were provided with quality care and the follow-up instructions.

They always have a smile on their faces. My kids love them. The only thing I would recommend them doing is when giving vaccines, distract the kiddos while doing so. Don’t make the parent or other staff member hold the child down.

There really great people in this office and my kids love going in there

This doc is amazing and very detailed and cares about her patients! Very informative n is great at listening to concerns

We love dr crowe, she always listens an has a smile on her face. She really cares about her patience s

The staff is always friendly and willing answer any questions and explain further when necessary.

Very responsive.

was great and got reassured everything is fine

She’s the greatest!!

Dr. Crowe is the best .

Dr. Crowe was amazing in the hospital and in office. She’s got great bedside manner and always willing to answer the 900 questions you may have lol it’s always a pleasure.

Love her

So caring and kind fast and easy

Always friendly and super helpful. Smiles and conversation very comfortable environment

She’s so sweet & always so gentle with my little girl. 10/10 Recommend her.

I don't typically write testimonials but I feel compelled to after my sons previous visit. We have used different doctors and nurse practitioners over the years and none have compared to the professionalism and care that Kali had demonstrated during our visit. She went above and beyond any and all expectations when it came to the care of my son that has a speech delay which many times has affected the quality and type of care he has received in the past. Kali hands down truly cares for her patients and it is abundantly obvious in the care she provides.

Love all the providers here...will hate when I age out!

Excellent Dr

Always friendly

Listens for concerns, love how they treat my son.

Dr. Crowe and all the nurses we see there are always amazing!

Good Service, convenient and friendly staff.

Thankful that you were able to get us in at the last moment. Appreciate the care of the nurse and Dr. Checking on us throughout the visit. They were so caring.

Always so great with my children and really helps us! I really appreciate her!

Compassionate, conservative, knowledgeable

Great care!

Always nice

Very direct and amazing with my son not to mention wanting to help in any way to better our lives.

She's very helpful

I absolutely love PASW! They are always so friendly and take the time to listen and get to know my children. I highly recommend Dr.Meier or Dr. Williams! They are phenomenal.

I have 2 bio kiddos plus my niece two of my kiddos are special needs my oldest this doc to me listens to us cares about our family but she did miracle w my niece bec she had 10 specialist doc and she was a very much a medical needs child and doc listened to every concern, issue we had and made a plan w us and stuck w it to make sure she got healthy and she did!!!! She cleared 8 of the 10 and the other two are very impressed w my nieces progress and honestly it's all due to this doc listening and caring I'd recommend her to anyone and everyone I could she is a amazing and so good w the kids could never thank her enough for all she has done

Everyone is always kind and helpful when I come in and I always appreciate the doctors listening to me and treating my son well

She was kind, patient, and answered all the questions we had.

She's a great Doctor!

Wonderful people

Easy and the process always goes smoothly

Dr. Crowe is very caring and patient.

Short and sweet

The staff was very friendly and helpful. My only draw back was that I was unaware I would need to pay a bill that I had not yet recieved in the mail before my son was seen for an ER follow up. There stag was very patient and kind about it but I feel that it should have been something stated at some point either after the last visit or when I called to schedule this one. The doctor my son saw was very personable and thorough. I plan to make this our primary care office as we have recently moved to the area. Thank you for your kindness and never pushing extras like vaccines or unnecessary treatments.

Overall good people and good place

Very kind. Got my son in asap

Excellent! Dr Crowe is great.

Dr. Meier was very wonderful and kind and patient. She understood my concerns. She made me feel like my daughter is going to get the help she needs. The other pediatrician we were seeing before Dr. Meier did less in 6 months than what Dr. Meier did in just one day.

Dr. Meter always treats my children and us with the utmost professionalism and kindness.

We have always had great service on every visit.

Always awesome

Dr Meier is always pleasant

I always feel heard and better about my concerns after visiting with Crowe. She's been there for my baby through thick and thin, even provided care for her at times while we were in Mercy dealing with RSV.

Love Dr. Crowe! She’s my favorite. Baby didn’t even cry when she looked in his ears and examined him. Always helpful, laidback and friendly. Easy to get in to and fast to get responses. Thanks!

We love Dr Crowe she’s the best!

She came to the exam prepared. She was easy to talk to and answered all questions
