He has the best clinical eye. He cures his patients and is a wonderful person.Has the best staff. The clinic's hrs of operation is very convenient. The experience that he has cannot be compared.

He seems like he cares about the babies. I'm sure he was an awesome doctor at one point. He's misdiagnosed my baby twice he said she was gonna have dandruff and it was just her scalp still had some of the watchamacalit from when she was born. In a week it was gone with regular shampoo. He also told me to scrub her face to take away the bumps in her skin. I did my research and used breastmilk instead it worked in 24 hours I'm not kidding. He seems a little outdated and doesn't seem to belive in anything but antibitoics. I'm in search of a new pediatrician. The previous rating has him down to a T...call me and tell me how many poopoos and peepees she's made...ummmm I always stay confused. How do I count these if I change her after every feeding...i can only count the poo poos.

after years of being in practice this doctor is on cruise control; is quick to diagnose based on a couple of words that you actually speak out because he doesn't allow you to finish speaking everything is a cold virus with ENT infections; his follow-ups consists of calling him w/a daily report of how many times child pooped, peed & how many oz. he drank.; great guy at one time was probably an excellent pediatrician at this point he is just going through motions.
