Dr. Carney is a wonderful surgeon. He made a miracle happen with my son. Thank you I don't know what my son would have been through without you. My son will be 3 and you would never really know he was born with a birth defect.

I left my son's appointment feeling very dejected. My son has a lump on the side of his chest which began to change and get infected. I had hoped Dr. Carney was going to help me have some peace of mind. Instead, he was rude, and cut me off when I was trying to explain the progression of the lump. He didn't look at the ultrasound, but diagnosed my son simply by touching the lump. Dr. Carney also answered the phone twice while I was in the room. I waited 45 minutes to see Dr. Carney for what may have added up to five minutes, during that five minutes, he answered his phone twice. I would not recommend Dr. Carney to anyone; my husband and I are currently looking for another surgeon to help us. I want a surgeon who will take the time with us and show concern about our son, and Dr. Carney is not that doctor!
