Looking for a GOOD Family Doctor in Surprise

I am looking for a referral to a GOOD family doctor in Surprise. If anyone could recommend a doctor that they go to and have had a positive experience I'd really appreciate it. The doctor that we've had the past 3 1/2 years might be a fine doctor but the office procedures and staff are a complete disaster. At my last appointment they turned me away saying I wasn't in the system and then called my cell phone an hour later saying they had made an error come on back in. I just got a bill which shows my insurance paid nothing for that visit in May then I realized they billed my previous insurance. After waiting three days for an email of blood draw results, I get it only to find it's two pages short, which I'm still waiting for the missing two pages. If anyone has a doctor they'd like to recommend, I'd really appreciate it.

What can I do next?

Hi C.,
If you are willing to go into Goodyear, I have an awesome Pediatric doctor. And the staff has been great also. I switch to this one because I did not care for the staff in the last dr. office.
Anyway - I take our children to Dr. Julie Crawford of Estrella internal medicine and Pediatrics. I know, wierd combo, but she is great!! we can always get in on short notice and on the same day if needed. Still a small enough office that she remembers the kids between visits, even my older son-11 yo., who only goes in 1-2 times a year.
there phone number is ###-###-####

Hi C.- We go to Arrowhead Pediatrics and see Dr. Hoff (female). I have seen a few of the other doctors there and they are also awesome. Everytime I have called to get one of my three kids in, I get an appt time the same day (if i am picky about who I see) and within an hour or two from the time I call (if i am not picky about what doctor i see). I have been very happy with the care I have gotten there, and because I always request Dr. Hoff, she knows my family. I also went to Dr. Barbarinde, and we liked her a lot. She is a great doctor, but I was having some real challenges getting an appointment (that is why I switched). I don't know if enough patients switched (maybe from not getting an appointment) but according a couple friends of mine that still go to her, you see her the same day. Dr. Barbarinde's practice is called Palm Tree Pediatrics. Both offices are off of Reems and Granite Valley up by Del Webb. I hope that helps.
