the therapy here is great!!! to preface, ive gone here for therapy since 2021. theyve had ~3 therapists since i began (not counting the temporary one after the first one gave birth), and the latest one is my absolute favorite overall. im not saying the others werent great, but this one is like. AMAZING seriously. ive only gone to her for a few months now but oh my GOD she (ashley) is amazing. she makes you feel like you're actually talking to a PERSON with real life experience and useful advice, instead of just listing off the way you feel and then having it repeated back to you clinically (or advice being "just breathe"). i feel like im having a conversation with someone for once who understands what im going through. ITS GREAT !!! also oh my god, she's like a mind reader?? its CRAZY seriously. i'll come in one day thinking about something PRETTY SPECIFIC and she'll tell me she wants to talk about that BEFORE IVE EVEN SAID ANYTHING.... its crazy and amazing and i am ALL here for it (i'm not very good at the whole emotional honesty thing LOL). anyways tldr; ashley is very friendly, personable, and overall a GREAT person. i'd highly recommend therapy here! :D

The dr are awesome and super sweet the only reason I gave it 4 stars is because it literally feels like pulling teeth trying to get an appt and everytime you call they put you on hold. Every single time. Other than that when you can get in the place is clean and the nurses are very sweet.

Amazing people! excellent care! super clean and nice facility! I can’t say enough about this place. I love it. Ginger Geiger is my all-around go to person for myself and my adult kids. If I had a little ones still, Dr. Laura Drake would be my number one. Need to update this review. Now I see Ms Malaina and she is incredible also and now I have my grandson going there and they are just amazing. Easy to get an appointment and be seen when they are actually sick.

I really like Strawberry Patch Pediatrics & Family Clinic very much. Ever since my doctor retired from the practice a few years ago I have trusted in this place because of the professional and friendly service it has to offer. It is also a very clean environment with a divided waiting area for sick patients on one side and those requiring wellness related services on the other. I really like the location right just south of Highway 22 on Hwy 51 south in Ponchatoula. I have had many wonderful visits here with very few issues later found to be third party issues and were unrelated to Strawberry Patch. Rest assured that this place cares very much for the patients that it provides care to. I am highly impressed with those who not only work here, but also those that manage and own this establishment. It is truly an upstanding business we are blessed to have here in the Antique City of Ponchatoula. I would like to highly recommend anyone looking for great quality care from adult primary services to pediatrics to visit here and give them the opportunity to serve you and your family. These days many other places in the medical industry treat patients like a number and generally are not concerned with the patients true needs. I honestly know the reason why this place was established and I know it is a positive and upstanding reason with true caring for the people of Ponchatoula and surrounding areas who deserve personal, friendly, and caring service in a clean environment. I have recently had the pleasure and opportunity to speak with the owner and can only say positive things about this person. He is a very well respected individual representing the community in a positive direction. I would like to thank not only this gentleman but also his staff for being there in times of need. I appreciate the personal local and friendly service they provide to the people of Ponchatoula. If you have kids and are looking for a pediatric clinic you can trust in or if you are an adult needing some medical treatment I urge you to give them a try. Step away from mainstream places that can treat you like a number only and find a place that honestly cares about the families they serve. Thank you very much Strawberry Patch for all you do for me and my family and all the others especially the children. Many blessings and thanks to the owners and staff of this great business of Tangipahoa and the city of Ponchatoula. Highly recommended!!
