Very cool. Very nice and complimented us multiple times. Front desk was awesome, and so were the people. Awesome environment, waiting room, and friendly staff.

37 days ago my daughter got severely sick. 3 ER visits, 4 sets of labs, and no answers from any doctors and I felt so lost. My daughter’s pediatrician recommended us to GI and this office was not our original decision. Let me tell you - I am so thankful I brought my daughter here. Dr. Walia is truly the definition of what a doctor should be like. Her kindness, warmth, and compassion towards my daughter and her sickness was beyond what I imagined it would be. We haven’t slept, we haven’t been able to breathe and I think tonight I can finally sleep a little better. I know it sounds cheesy, but I am so so grateful for this practice.

My daughter was seeing two different GI at CHOA. We wasn't happy so our son had to see a GI. Now all of our children go to see her now. Very friendly and understanding Lady. We also love it when they call and ask how our children are. Thank you everyone.

UPDATE: A Personal Thank You to the Doctor I wanted to come back and update my review because something happened today that truly touched my heart. After sharing my concerns about the upfront payment policy, the doctor personally called me. She wanted to understand what happened and hear my concerns. That phone call meant more to me than she may ever realize. First, I want to make something very clear. Lori was never rude or disrespectful to me. She was helpful throughout our conversation. My original concern was never about her personally or the quality of medical care. It was about the financial policy and how difficult it can be for families who are trying their best to obtain healthcare for their children. I was never asking for free medical services. I was willing to pay. I simply needed some flexibility and understanding. But what happened next reminded me that compassion still exists in healthcare. The doctor took time out of her day to personally call me, listen to my concerns, and understand the situation. She didn’t just see a dollar amount or an appointment on a schedule. She took the time to see the human being behind the situation. And she told me she would see my daughter tomorrow. That meant everything to me. Sometimes it’s not just about the money, the policy, or the procedure. It’s about the why. It’s about understanding what a family may be going through. It’s about recognizing that behind every appointment is a parent doing everything possible to care for their child. Policies may determine how a business operates, but compassion determines how people experience it. I am a woman of faith, and I truly believe that God always has a ram in the bush. Today was a beautiful reminder that sometimes God makes a way through someone’s willingness to simply listen. To the doctor, thank you. Thank you for taking the time to call me personally. Thank you for hearing my heart instead of just reading my frustration. Thank you for showing that humanity and compassion still have a place in healthcare. My daughter has not yet had her appointment, so this update is about the kindness and understanding I experienced today. I wanted to share this publicly because just as I believe in speaking up when something concerns me, I also believe in giving recognition when someone makes a difference. And today, you made a difference. From one mother, thank you. May God continue to bless you and the work you do. I have no words! My God

Dr. Walia is the most amazing kind hearted doctor. She explains everything so well and made sure that I was okay after getting my daughter's diagnosis. Dr. Walia made it clear to us that she is here for the kids and not the money. I could go on and on about how amazing Dr. Walia is. We love Dr. Walia so much.

Dr. Walia was excellent in diagnosing and treating my son’s celiac disease. She was thorough, knowledgeable, and took the time to carefully listen to our concerns. Her diagnostic approach was accurate, and she guided us clearly through the treatment plan and next steps. She was patient, compassionate, and made us feel supported throughout the process. We are very grateful for the care she provided and highly recommend Dr. Ritu Walia.

After struggling for months with our newborn’s feeding, we sought a second opinion from Dr. Walia. Since seeing Dr. Walia our sons feeding has significantly improved. He is a completely new baby, growing, and meeting all his milestones. Dr. Walia believed us one no one else did and she has made a significant impact on our families life. We are forever grateful.

Dr. Walia is one of the best pediatric providers I have found in GA. We drive almost 2 hours to see her because she is so amazing. She treats my daughter as her own, is empathetic, and is genuinely concerned with the issues she is having. It is rare to find a provider that cares this much. We are so grateful for her!
