Dr. Dennis Brenner, MD

Dr. Brenner is unsympathetic, inattentive to patient needs, does not listen to the patient, and does not treat the patient’s parents with respect. My child’s pediatrician was concerned with his poor growth rate and recommended we see a specialist. Brenner was the first pediatric endocrinologist with whom we could get an appointment. I noticed that Brenner received poor reviews online but we were willing to try him out to see for ourselves. For one year we used Brenner as our child’s pediatric endocrinologist and can confirm that he is a poor communicator and a terrible diagnostician. At my child’s last appointment with Brenner, my child had a growth rate of basically zero and Brenner still had no idea why this was happening. Additionally, he had no treatment plan for my child. After one year of diagnostic tests, bloodwork, x-rays, and an MRI, Brenner concluded that my child simply had delayed puberty. This is completely irrational. Delayed puberty cannot explain zero growth over a… one-year period. We are changing practices to a pediatric endocrinologist that understands how growth development can significantly affect a child’s physical and emotional well-being. Our new pediatric endocrinologist is sensitive and empathetic to our issues and is able to administer treatment therapies. Brenner is the opposite of a caring and compassionate doctor.

I drove my daughter an hour and half to see this rude, obnoxious dr! He not only couldn’t answer my questions but he spoke to me condescendingly. He asked me to tell him my daughters history in 2 sentences after he rolled his eyes at me. He clearly does not care about your child he only goes by bloodwork only. Wish I never wasted my time going to see him. He is useless and just biding his time before he retires. Folks, don’t waste your time with this one.. find someone else

Practice management and scheduling is a nightmare. Doctors spent like 15 minutes with you. Office too crowded for Covid. A body shop!
