Her practice is on Gilbert Ave in Menlo Park. Dr. Kaufman is an outstanding physician and very good with our twins. There are three doctors in her practice, all of whom we've seen at one point or another (although Dr. Kaufman is our primary pediatrician), and we've received nothing but excellent care. | July 2018 - present (2022) | Stanford Healthcare Alliance (2018-2020), Blue Shield (2020-present (2022)) | Michelle Lucas Rice | malucas@stanford.edu | |||||||||||||||||||

27 | Kaiser Permanente Redwood Mecial Clinic | Marissa Aillaud | 905 Maple Street | I don't recommend this pediatrician! I had 4 visits with my son who was at that time 4-8 month old. Every single time the pediatrician made me filling unwelcome, my concerns were often ignored and also she made some horrible suggestions about sleep training. | 2021-present (2022) | Kaiser Permanente | |||||||||||||||||||||||||
28 | Menlo Medical Clinic | Laurie Chiang (she uses different names) | 1300 Crane St, Menlo Park, CA 94025 | https://stanfordhealthcare.org/doctors/c/laura-chiang.html | 2023-06-28 | I don't recommend this pediatrician. We were with her for 6 months. She basically does nothing other than saying "your baby is thriving." She unfortunately not only lacks diagnosis skills but also fails to see the issue when you show multiple times. She waits until everything gets extremely severe that requires treatment at a hospital/special facility. Even for something manageable like eczema, she kept saying it was not eczema until it gets very severe. Can you believe she asked us to rub Purell hand sanitizer all over babies body for eczema? We changed the doctor and our lives became million times better. | 2022 | SHCA Aetna | |||||||||||||||||||||||
