We are incredibly grateful to Dr. David Kalfa and the entire team at Nicklaus Children’s Hospital. Our son underwent robotic heart surgery, and everything went wonderfully. Dr. Kalfa is an exceptional surgeon who made us feel confident, informed, and supported throughout the entire process.
The doctors, nurses, and staff treated our son with extraordinary care, compassion, and professionalism. As his parents, we could not be happier with the results and the care he received. We will always be thankful to Dr. Kalfa and everyone involved in giving our son the best possible outcome. We highly recommend Dr. Kalfa and Nicklaus Children’s Hospital to any family seeking outstanding pediatric cardiac care. ❤️🙏
We are incredibly grateful for Dr. Dyadin Esharif and the exceptional care he has provided to my grandson, Miles, at Nicklaus Children’s Hospital. I cannot emphasize enough what a GREAT doctor he is!
Dr. Esharif is compassionate, knowledgeable, patient, and genuinely dedicated to his patients. One thing that really stood out to us was how familiar he was with Miles’ medical history. It was clear that he took the time to carefully review his records before our visit. That level of preparation gave us confidence that Miles was truly being seen and treated as an individual, not just as another patient.
Dr. Esharif has helped tremendously in treating Miles’ medical condition, and we are so grateful for the difference his expertise and thoughtful approach have made. He takes the time to listen carefully to our concerns before recommending treatment, and he explains everything clearly while making sure we understand and have the opportunity to ask questions.
His professionalism, compassion, and
genuine concern have made us feel comfortable and confident throughout this entire experience. He has also been extremely flexible in coordinating appointments around our schedule and has even met with us on his day off. He is always available for a telephone call when I have concerns or questions, which means so much to our family.
It is rare to find a doctor who is not only highly knowledgeable but also so accessible, caring, and committed to his patients. Dr. Esharif truly goes above and beyond.
I highly recommend Dr. Esharif to any parent or family who wants answers, wants to be heard, and wants their child treated appropriately and with genuine care. We are incredibly thankful to have him caring for Miles.
Thank you, Dr. Esharif for your dedication, compassion, and for taking such wonderful care of our family. We truly appreciate everything you have done!

My kids luckily have never been hospitalized therefore i can not speak on how the care of a patient while hospitalized but, I have gone to the ER many times and this is the worst hospital. My son was transferred from another hospital because there is not pediatric department and they could not find why my child was screaming crying from the pain he felt in his leg. We got to the Children's hospital at 3 am and it was 5 am an no doctor had seen my child, only his vitals were taken when we got there. I was disrespected and spoken to as a child by a charger nurse who in my opinion is unfit for her job. I was told to relax and calm down while my child was crying from pain. She also made it seem that there were other kids with more important emergencies than the leg pain my child was in which he was given morphine at another hospital before being transferred to Children's. I was judged by his nurse for allowing morphine to be given to him for the excruciating pain he was in which he was crying over an hour for.
I will give credit to the Doctors who saw my son as they were very nice, listened to my concerns and were updating me regularly on the next steps they were taking and explained all in detail.

I’m just getting around to writing this review a year and a half after our experience at Nicklaus Children’s Hospital because, truthfully, it has taken me this long to be able to put it into words.
My daughter was unexpectedly born in critical condition and was airlifted to Nicklaus immediately after birth. She ultimately spent her entire 33 days of life in the NICU before passing away there. It was, and always will be, the most heartbreaking experience of my husband’s and my life.
But when I think about those 33 days, I also think about the incredible medical team who became such a huge part of our daughter’s story. From the doctors and nurses to the respiratory therapists, I still think about them all the time. They made the worst situation imaginable just a little more bearable for us and, most importantly, they took incredible care of our daughter.
Her team worked tirelessly to find answers and to help her in every way they possibly could. I’m tearing up even writing this because I don’t know if I’ll ever be able to fully express how blown away we were by the compassion, dedication, and professionalism of this team. They cried with us. They held us while we cried. They cared for our baby like she mattered to them, too.
Erika is truly an angel of a human being. She literally and figuratively held my hand through the final three days of my daughter’s life, and I will never forget what that meant to me. Blaise and Alex also hold such a special place in my heart. You could genuinely feel how much they cared about our daughter and wanted the best for our family.
It breaks my heart beyond words that my baby spent her entire life in a NICU. But if she had to be there, I am so incredibly grateful that she was surrounded by this team. They gave her exceptional care, dignity, love, and compassion throughout her short life, and they gave my husband and me comfort during the darkest days we will ever experience.
A year and a half later, I still wish I could hug every one of them and thank them again. They will forever be a part of our daughter’s story and a part of our hearts. Thank you for taking such beautiful care of our baby when we needed you most.
