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.
Physician entered room and barely looked at my daughter looking at computer most of visit , was patronizing condescending and lacked empathy. Told my daughter her labs were boring and she appeared healthy! This despite clinical symptoms with blood work that suggest otherwise . She not only lacked compassionate care she ignored and disregards evidenced based practice - dismissing clinical symptoms, high ANA levels with antibodies that correlate with her neurologist symptoms . Avoid at all cost- Boston children’s triaged her labs and clinical systems same day and expedited her consult - the same labs and clinical symptoms she considered boring - don’t waste your precious child’s time - medical gaslighting 101

My 8 year old daughter has been a patient of Dr. Wiers since she was about 8 months old. I have never been happier with the care my daughter receives than I do with Dr. Wiers. My daughter has come a long way thanks to the care she receives with Dr. Wiers!

Dr. Wiers was the First Dr. in Broward county who agreed that my daughter has arthritis! She diagnosed my child with JRA and has been treating her since my daughter was 9 till now, at the age of 14! Many previous Doctors actually called my child a liar, saying she was making up her symptoms, but Dr. Wiers took 1 look at her back and confirmed what i thought it was for over 3 years! Dr. Wiers is The Best! A true Heaven sent for suffering children!Thank You Dr. Wiers! Kathy & Jessi
