"Dr. Nakashima is an exceptionally experienced and knowledgeable pediatrician. We have complete confidence in his medical judgment and the care he provides for our children. He is always patient, thorough, compassionate, and takes the time to answer all of our questions without ever making us feel rushed.

The entire office staff is also professional, friendly, and efficient, making every visit a positive experience. Appointments are well organized, and the team consistently goes above and beyond to help families feel comfortable and supported.

We drive more than 30 miles each way because we believe our children deserve the best care possible, and Dr. Nakashima is absolutely worth the trip. Finding a pediatrician who combines such extensive experience, genuine kindness, and outstanding medical expertise is rare. We feel incredibly fortunate to have him caring for our kids and would highly recommend him to any family looking for a top-tier pediatrician.

⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️ Highly recommended."

"Trusted doctor Nakashima with both my children and they have a great relationship with him today. The office philosophy of limiting allopathy drugs to as needed only matched our family preference. Also it is very easy to make appointments and that has been super helpful. Everyone is kind and patient also."

"I have been taking my sons to Nikkei since they were born. Sadly one has aged out but it would be impossible for me to recommend Dr. Nakashima and his incredible staff highly enough. They have always cared for our sons with the utmost consideration. They go out of their way to make time to squeeze you in for sick visits, and are thorough and patient during well visits. Dr. Nakashima focuses on caring for the whole child and takes the time to ask questions and lend insight. We are never rushed as he always spends adequate time and then some. He is unparalleled with all ages from newborn to school-aged and teenagers. Our family will be very sad when both of our kids are aged out. I truly cannot recommend him and Nikkei highly enough!"

Dr. Nakashima is caring, knowledgeable, warm, funny, and wise. He takes the time to connect with both children and parents, and we have always felt confident in the care he provides. I am incredibly grateful to Dr. Nakashima and the entire office for the exceptional care they have given my children over the years. Highly recommend!"

"Nikkei Pediatric is excellent. My son is graduating from High School. The Doctors at Nikkei Pediatric helped my son from a few weeks after his birth through adolescence. From routine check-ups and childhood viruses to more serious issues. I always felt my son was getting the best care and felt well guided as a new parent. Dr. George was always warm and made my son laugh. The best."

"My twins were seen by the doctors at Nikkei Pediatrics up until recently… they are now 22! As a parent, I have always felt supported and listened to, my children were well cared for and seen quickly when necessary. Dr. Nakashima especially has a fun joking manner (puts kids and dads at ease) with the ability to know exactly when to be serious. I appreciate my many years spent at this pediatric clinic and would whole heartedly recommend them to parents."

"Dr. Nakashima has been our pediatrician since the day both of my boys were born. Unbeknownst to me, Dr. Nakashima had visited both newborns in the NICU when I was resting after two complicated C-Sections. He did, as a real doctor checking on babies, when my OB asked him because he was also her kids’ pediatrician. He is an example of what a doctor should be, checking on humans because he cares, not because he’s getting paid. We were so blessed to have raised two amazingly healthy boys, and have had the guidance of the most amazing pediatrician we had the pleasure to have found. If other doctors trust Dr. Nakashima with their precious little humans… I’d say that is enough said. Our kids are about to graduate High School now and we couldn’t have managed this journey like experts without all the support and guidance from NIKKEI, Dr. Nakashima, and his incredible staff. And yes, we drove 1-2 hours from Orange County just for our check ups and visits, despite the overflow of doctors here, the drive was well worth it."

"Been going to Nikkei Pediatric since last 17 years. Always had great experience. Starting from day one when my son was born till last month when my son turned 17 and in between so many emergency appointments - all were dealt with empathy and professionalism. All other times when school required anything from doctor's office, Nikkei Pediatric has always been very prompt and thorough. I will recommend them to anyone looking for great doctors for their children!
We still look forward to our annual visit to Dr. George Nakashima for his sense of humor and remarkable ability to reassure us- overwhelmed parents with any questions for decades now!"
