Would not reccomend anyone to bring their child here. the office is outdated and very old looking, the two employees at the desk are rude unprofessional and don't seem to really know what they are doing. Iv'e been recomended by many to switch pediatricians and i finally have. I tried giving the benefit of the doubt but when it comes to my childs safety i'm not willing to gamble. Je prescribed her bromfed which i was told known to cause death in babies by a ER pediatrician from wolfson's children hospital and he recommends things for babies that WIC considers unessecary like giving juice to a 3month old

The staff is real nice and professional. I took my children to him in the 80's and 90's. And now my granddaughters and he has not changed. Same professional atmosphere and still wonderful with children.
