Dr. Dori Rosenthal Mortimer, MD

my child saw mortimer for a chronic issue. She ignored my stated concerns, was disrespectful, & prescribed a treatment for an ailment that my child had none the symptoms of. she was 2hours late for the scheduled appointment.

Always felt rushed. Missed many conversations on many issues because of interruptions and frequent office "chaos". Friendly doctor but wasn't as thorough as we needed her to be. There was a always a 20-30 minute wait to see the doctor, then another long wait in the room for the nurse to show up with the injections.

I wish I could give this provider zero star. You may have different experience, but I'd like to share our experience here. She's now with CPCMG. We chose CPCMG for our newborn girl because their convenient walk in hours. But unluckily we got to see this particular provider for our first office visit and had terrible experience. We just had our first baby two weeks ago. I and my baby girl were discharged from hospital at the end of Wed. And My husband brought my girl to Dr Mortimer for her follow up visit on Friday. Dr Mortimer insisted my baby girl to have blood draw at her facility because she thought she looked yellow. As Asian we do look more yellowish than other races. However my baby girl just had two bilirubin tests done at hospital and she passed both tests. One of the test is just less than 48 hours ago. We were unsure about if it's necessary to have this extra blood draw on our tiny baby. So we turned down her suggestion and decided to go to another pediatrician for… second thought. So we brought her to another pediatrics on the same street. We were told there our baby girl is doing fine and were suggested to keep monitoring the amount of dirty diapers. But the nightmare just started with this doctor Mortimer. She keeps calling our cell phones and left threatening messages to ask us to bring our baby back to her office. She even mentions she'll report to authorities to take our baby away from us and send lawyer to us if we don't do that. We end up have to send her an official certified mail stating she is fired and no longer our girl's pediatrician. Scary story with this doctor. 100% not recommended. If she's your kid's doctor, watch out for unnecessary tests and seek secondary advices where needed. Btw, under the guidance of our new pediatrician, my baby not only avoided the unnecessary blood draw but also gained one pound in just one week!

Dori is an excellent doctor. She respected our healthcare choices and came along side us in areas where we were worried or needed a better understanding. The reason it takes longer (wait time) is that she is very thorough with her patients.

had an 11:30am appt; had to wait till 12:50pm, that's right before I get into the room; unacceptable; this is the second time this has happened to me with this doctor

Recently needed the reschedule appointment. Arrived at new appt time, I was told 420, my ex was told 410 so we arrived at 355. We did not meet with the Dr until 500. I never had one doctor growing up as a child but it is disheartening to have to explain everything about your child's history. I'm not sure that if you are looking for an intimate experience with a Dr. who will remember you or review your chart in advance of the appt this may not be the office for you.

Dr. Mortimer is nice but doesn't tell us things to work on/look for between healthy baby visits. She's always rushed due to the overbooking of patients. Her main nurse is nice, but the office staff is rude to everyone. We dislike the office staff and the much too long wait times (longest was 2 hours) that we're looking for another pediatrician. It's also difficult to get appointments.

Mortimer is a good Dr, but office is over run w/ patients and auxillary staff/receptionist are a tad rude. Appointments are impossible to alter in emergencies.
