Dr Mendenhall is super caring, kind, and calming for both my kids and me! I have brought my kids to see her for the past decade and I will say hands down she is the best. We’ve had to see other doctors once in awhile but feel the best when Dr Mendenhall is our doc. She is calming and secure in her excellent skills (found a fracture the xray reader said was normal) and has always fit us in at the last minute and has been approachable and understanding. 

Business response:

Hi there, thank you for your kind review! We will pass along your comments to Dr. Medenhall. Have a great day. -Scripps patient feedback team

I saw Dr. Mendenhall a year ago when my children’s primary doctor was out sick. I’d like her to know her effect on people. I left the interaction feeling like a totally awful mom, and felt extremely judged. I had two kids under 3 years old with me. I was holding my 2 year old who was being unruly, and trying to help my 3 year old with her shoes at the same time. Doc looked at me in disgust like I wasn’t able to manage both of them (girl it’s hard ok? I’m just trying to make it work and I never thought my pediatrician would j... read more

Dr Mendenhall takes care of all 3 of my kids for 22 years and has been wonderful with them every step of the way. From helping me through hard times when they were babies and toddlers (3 under 4!) to teen angst and now college years we all love her. The now young adults don’t want to see anyone else. Her partners are all good too but she is the best! Goes above and beyond!

Dr. Mendenhall was my doctor from my birth check ups to my teen years. I always felt off after my visits with her. I now read other reviews as a 20 year old and realize that I am not the only one. She not only berated me, but dismissed any concerns I had. She was pompous, cold, and overall a terrible health care provider. For your kids sake do not schedule an appointment with this doctor! I am still appalled by how she treated me and the fact that she continues to treat children disgusts me. It took me years to trust doctors... read more

We have had wonderful doctors at cpcmg, but this woman is truly the worst. She is cruel, condescending, pompous, insincere, and cold. It’s strange that she chose to be a pediatrician given her obvious disregard for children. She will not listen to your polite requests or boundaries, she will do what she wants to your child without hesitation because she has delusions of grandeur. Stay away! I recommend Dr. Clementino, or Dr. Brion for doctors that are knowledgeable, skilled, kind, and attentive.

If you’re reading this, you’re a parent who cares about their kid and wants to make sure their doctor is in good hands. With Dr. Mendenhall, they are not. My child said afterward that it was the scariest experience they’d ever had with a doctor. I now regret not checking reviews online first. I had to spend the rest of the day calming them down. This doctor should not be allowed anywhere near kids.

She is extremely condescending, rude with lack of compassion. After talking over us and giving guilt that why our daughter is watching tv to avoid crying while getting her vaccines, she wrote in her after summary note that she is likely autistic based on her “being glued to the screen” observation . I just couldn’t believe it. She is not our primary pediatrician and was only seen her due to scheduling issues but will refuse to see her in the future . She should not be a pediatrician and I wish I would have read some reviews ... read more

I’ve seen Dr. Mendenhall about 2 times. I’ve taken my daughters to Childrens Primary Care since they were born. Never have I experience such a condescending and rude doctor in my entire life. She has no patience, she’s not kind, and it makes an already tough experience bringing your kid to the doctor ten times Worse. Every other doctor, but Mendenhall, in this group is kind, patient, and truly professional.

Dr. Mendenhall has been a wonderful doctor to my two children. I have a daughter that is a teenager and she has already treated my daughter with dignity and respect. Dr. Mendenhall caught a medical condition with each of my children that required extensive therapy and medical attention. She made sure we had referrals quickly and worked with insurance to get us treatment quickly. I am very grateful for her hard work, professionalism, and kindness.
