I've been taking my son here since he was a newborn. This doctor is wonderful. I wouldn't trade her for the world. When my son was a baby and had a high fever she came to the hospital to visit him. She is so caring and knows every child whole heartedly. She's a kind and extremely knowledgeable doctor. Our staff is wonderful and she is fantastic. There are not many doctors out there like her. She's truly a one-of-a-kind, pediatrician!

Dr. Elkassir is an excellent physician, if not the best! She always communicated directly with my child and made her feel safe.

If your child has a cold, she is fine. However, anything beyond the ordinary, go elsewhere!

She is an amazing Dr. I have switched my 5 year old through 4 diff doctors bc I was not satisfied with them. this dr has great service, she is accurate and kind. She takes her time and follows up promptly if you leave a message for her and is NOT annoyed. I will bring my daughter her so long as she is in practice.

I travel over one hour to see Dr. E. She was my pediatrician as a child, and after having awful experiences with other pediatricians for my son I rather drive over 50 miles to see her. She has always been on target... even when my so n has been mis diagnosed by other doctors. She is the bEst!

I would never think of seeing another doctor for my son's care, unless she is on vacation! And even then if we can wait we wait. Although her back-ups overall have been very good. Dr Elkassir is so fond of the kids she cares for. She remembers EVERYTHING and its amazing. She is so caring, and interested in the health of your entire family. She is nothing short of THE best!

I have been going to her since I was an infant. I'm 28 now and I still call her when i get sick. Both my brothers go to her also. I highly recommend you take your kids to this doctor. She really cares for her patients and you will see for yourself.

Dr. Elkassir is the very best doctor. Both my sons love her. Her bedside manner should be published to teach other doctors how to treat patients and parents. My oldest son is now 20 years old an unfortunatly has to go to a different doctor next year. He wants to keep seeing doctor Elkassair and said when he has kids they will be going to her. Again she is the best choice for your kids. No ands, ifs or buts about it.
