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.

Very bad experience with him
We had a visit at Plymouth meeting with him. He was very aggressive with my one year son. He did not want him to cry at all and holded him not in a good way. Also, in not respectful way, he did not knock the door before entering. We did not have any chance to ask any questions. Very bad experience. We decided to move my son to another office. I don’t recommend this guy for any visit. He shouldn’t be working with kids.

Should Not Be Working With Children
I saw Dr. Salmon when my daughter was a baby and was so turned off by his demeanor. I actively avoided him for 11 years when my son saw him for a well visit. He was beyond, rude and degrading. My son has ASD diagnosis and the way in which he spoke to him and interacted with him was beyond reprehensible. Do not recommend. I'm not sure why he chose to work with children when he clearly hates children.

Horrible experince with my 1 yr old baby
The way he handled my baby was so rough and agressive. He tightend both hands of my one yr old baby grabbed her head very aggressively till she was blue and red just to look her ears. I haven't seen a doctor become so much forcible to an infant. She cried horribly. He is a pediatrician but his attitude tells that he hates children.

We saw Dr. Salomon at Pediatric Associates Collegeville. When he looked at our 1 year old baby, the way he handled our baby..I wanted to cry. He treated her horribly, my poor little baby cried and he didn't say a word. Just grabbed her hands and looked at her ears horribly. I am not going second time.

UNFIT TO BE A PHYSICIAN
My child had productive eyes. We went back for years to Dr. Salomon for the same issue. Dr. Salomon has repeatedly diagnosed it as pink-eye without doing a thorough examination. When asked what else could it be, he dismissed us and became increasingly curt, rude, and condescending. As a result of Dr. Salomon's refusal to thoroughly examine our child and his unwillingness to consider other diagnoses, we went to another physician. The new physician reached a diagnosis in 10 minutes and is currently treating my child for unopened tear ducts. When asked the new physician said, "Any physician who takes a good look at him would see what's going on." Dr. Salomon is an unfit physician. It's not that a diagnosis wrong, his diagnosis came without a thorough examination. And, when the problem persisted he was unwilling to consider other diagnoses and became unprofessional toward concerned parents.

Experience Professional In Healthcare – Feb 01, 2022

Dr. Salomon has possibly the most horrific bedside manner I have ever seen or dealt with in any capacity. His refusal to speak with parents of his patients and his insistence to bark at them like they are beneath him are counterproductive to the health and welfare of the children whose parents seek his expertise for their healthcare. He will no longer be able to treat or care for any of my children. Simply put, I have never been more dissatisfied with a healthcare professional than I am with him.

Dr. Solomon should not be a pediatrician. He is arrogant, rude, and unkind. He’s shown no bedside manner, or manners at all to me or my child. He is rough with the babies, dismissive of the parent and makes the family feel like an inconvenience. I am seriously thinking of taking my child to another practice because of the negative experiences I’ve had with him.

Dr. Salomon has a broad knowledge base and has consistently provided quality care for my teenage son. My son has voiced his utmost trust and comfort in having visits with this physician. He is also well versed in special needs and is a fabulous resource of support for parents.

I understand with other reviewers below where they came from. Dr.Solomon is not the most friendly pediatrician but my children hadn’t have a problem with him. I make my lists of questions to ask before I see doctor and he always answers all. He may not be my first choice for well visits, but I do trust him as doctor and never mind to see him for my kids’ sick visits.

For a regular month check up appointment we were seeing Dr. Salomon for the first time. He did not introduce himself, he could care less who my child or I was. He was cocky and rude with the answers to my questions. He was not friendly and handled my child way to aggressively. Nearly suffocating my child's face just to look inside the mouth. It's clear he does not like children. Should not be a pediatrician at all.

I have never had such a bad experience with a doctor before, let alone one that deals with children. He came in the room without introducing himself and his cockiness was immediately noticeable. He had that doctor persona as if he was better than everyone else and anytime you asked a question he just undermined it without even answering the question. He had absolutely no bedside manner, and was extremely aggressive with my 5 month old. Palming her whole face and squeezing her head till she cried
