Dr. O is awesome! We have been taking our children to her since 1996 and have moved away and come right back to her. She is very upfront and always correct on her dignoses. She is also very attentive to our childens needs and listens to what we as parents have to say. We are very satisfied with her and her staff.

Dr. Ostrower was our pediatrician as children, and now we trust her with our own. She is very upfront, straight forward, and does not sugar coat anything- but she is highly accurate in everything she diagnoses. Dr. O loves her children, and her head nurse Penny, who has always been with her makes a child's world just a tad bit brighter when theyre sick at the office. I love that she has two locations- one off Medical Drive and one in the Stone Oak area. My only advice is dont miss a well baby check- rescheduling will take weeks!

Dr. Ostrower made us feel like we were important. We didn't feel rushed or like just another appointment on a list. She listen to our concerns and didn't have the tradition response, "that's what kids do", or "that's what happens sometimes". I highly recommend Dr. Ostrower!!!

We visited Dr. Ostrower one time and we won't be going back. I don't feel like she listened to me and my concerns. When I brought up that one of my children had had surgery, without knowing the specifics, she rolled her eyes. Several things I brought up were dismissed. When I brought up one concern, she immediately got defensive, her tone changed and her voice raised. I thought she had some stange ideas about other things. I will not be going back. I want a pediatrician I can feel comfortable around.
