Your trust is our top concern.

We strive to keep reviews honest, trustworthy, and fair.

Doctors can not pay for good reviews, nor can they pay to have negative reviews removed.

We monitor all reviews to ensure they comply with our guidelines and don’t include personal information, profanity, libel, defamation, harassment, obscenity or fraud.

Any reviews that are deemed fraudulent or violate our guidelines will be removed immediately.

All reviews are confirmed and audited before publication, and community members have the ability to flag inappropriate content for further review by our team.

We have been there since our daughter was born August of last year. He is always helpful, listens to our concerns, answers all questions, always in a good mood and interactive with the kids. We love going there.

He answered all of my questions and made me feel like he really cared about Elijah. I'm so happy that our OB suggested Dr Traeger!

Dr Traeger is so caring. We love how he listens and addresses all of my questions. He says, “I love lists! Come with a list of questions!”

He is the best! He is funny and really takes time to engage my kids. He answers all of my questions and brings up things I would not have thought to think of!

Extremely pushy of his own agenda. Unwilling to listen to the parents desires about their child's healthcare. 1 visit and he didn't listen to the parents concerns, within 8 hours our child was being treated at the ER and it was 100% necessary. We never returned. The Hippocratic Oath states doctors will do no harm, and yet the result for our child was a critical visit to the ER.

Outstanding experience! My son is autistic and we were recommended to see Dr Traeger by our ABA therapist, a couple of the therapists at our school AND our developmental pediatrician in Champaign. Kind, caring and listened to our concerns. We asked about diet changes and our essential oils and he was supportive "as long as it was not hurting" our son. He even said that there was no research to say that some things were helpful but he encouraged us to do it if it made us happy. Thank you Dr!

My son has Autism and Dr Traeger brushed me and my concerns off. He doesn't believe in food sensitivity or GFDF diet. I wanted one vaccination at a time and he agreed while he was in the room. He went behind my back and ordered a multiple vaccine shot in order to give my son the 2 vaccines that he wanted. I will never trust him again. He cared so little about my son that he reported on the progress sheet that my son needs PT/OT/DT-He is non verbal but physically fine. No speech ordered but PT?!
