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.

Had no idea what was going on.
We were referred by our child's pediatrician and eye Dr. Because of frequent headaches and a retinal hemorrhage which could obviously indicate a bigger problem. He just kept saying 'why are you here'? 'What am I supposed be looking at'? 'I'm not an eye Dr.' Maybe get us a Head CT and MRI. Waste of time.

Would not recommend
I was very disappointed with this doctor. When I asked him questions about my child’s condition, he didn’t take my questions nor input seriously. Everything was very routine, cookie cutter. There was no individual concern or care. I left the office, not knowing anything more than what I knew when I entered. He treated my child and I poorly and the only thing he did was refer us elsewhere.

Unprofessional, Waste Of Time & Money
He didn't answer any of my 4 questions. I said how we are on yr 2 of potty training with no luck, did he lose that sensation as well? His answer..." I don't know you’ll have to see a urologist" AREN'T YOU A NEUROLOGIST You deal with spinal cord/nerve damage? This is why we’re seen every 6 mths, he can’t feel hot, cold, or pain waist down from vaccine spinal cord damage. Instead, he decides to hash out AGAIN about how it's important to keep giving him vaccines & tried to say it wasn’t caused by vaccines when not only pediatrician but 2 OTHER NEURO DR. Have said it was. I'm past that, permanent damage is done, don’t want to talk about it anymore. Next argument was PT, who told me my son didn't need to be seen but keep wearing leg brace. I told him what she said, he said no he needs to go...I'm not going to waste money/time on taking him if the actual PT says no. His response “Well Your insurance covers it doesn’t it” WOW. I don’t know how he still has a job.
