Gary Michael Podhaisky

We will miss Dr. P so much. He always knows what's going on and is patient even when I ask the same question and need reassurance. Best pediatrician we've seen.

Dr P was the best. So sad to see him go.

Very sad to see Dr P leaving. He has been a great provider. Hope the new provider we have selected is as good as he has been

We love Dr. Gary! He is great with both of my kids, one being special needs. Neither of my kids dislike going to the doctor.

Dr. Podhaisky always goes above and beyond to help with any questions or concerns for both my children.

I have never been so dismissed or disrespected by a healthcare professional in my life. I also had some reservations about 1 vaccination, the MMR. when I brought up possibly delaying the shot for 6 months he told me if I did not give my daughter all recommended vaccinations by today he would refuse to be her doctor anymore. So for the moment I left it at that, called my daughters father and requested to talk to the doctor one more time. When he came into the room he told me he does not have time to have a 20 minute conversation about vaccines with me and my husband, he has other patients to see. Then he left the room again. I was in complete shock that I was being a hundred percent dismissed by my daughter's doctor. I went back into the Hall in tears I might add to express my concern that doctor podhaisky doesn't have time to talk about my daughter, who is his patient. He returned to the room to tell me it's not my fault you don't believe in vaccinations. Which could not be farther… from the truth, my daughter has had every recommended vaccinations to date. It's just this one vaccination I would like to put off until she is at least 6 months older based on evidence that the MMR increases a child's chance of getting autism by 50% when they are 1 year of age, the parentage goes down the older they get. (Reference Vaxxed: From Cover-Up to Catastrophe) I never should have been treated like a second class parent for looking out for my daughters best interest. I'm so appalled with Dr. podhaisky Behavior.

I was looking for a new pediatrician that was closer to our home and happened upon his office. We had one OK appointment but I left questioning going to him, especially when I got questionable remarks and reviews from the staff about him. Our second appointment was awful. He was unwilling to listen and unwilling to answer critical questions. He saw red after finding out I wanted an alternative vaccine plan, and put in "ear plugs" when I tried to ask questions and try to find a compromise that would work for everyone. He is a doctor that is competent but unwilling to see each patient as individual cases. He is only willing to treat "in the box". He did not make me feel stupid (since I am highly educated) but he did try his best while belittling my parenting. He pre-judged me without any knowledge of my parenting style or our home atmosphere. I got put in with the "other mothers" before finding out if I was one. He also snapped at my 2 year old for essentially being bored while sister… was being checked out. He raised his voice to me and said a cuss word in front of my toddler. I had questions about my infants health but when he found out I also had questions on vaccinations he neglected to answer anything else and wrote me off. He saw me as a crazy mom who new nothing before finding out what I did know. I would NEVER go back to him and I have already contacted all the people I know and told them not to go back. VERY unprofessional and horrible bedside manor.

I laugh at the people who say that Dr. Podhaisky made them feel dumb. I think there is a really good chance that you feel dumb because you ARE dumb. I mean seriously? So many of you whining and moaning that the mean ol' Doc made you cry and hurt your itty bitty feelings? Wow! What is this world coming to? I think most of the pi$$ed off people here are the welfare recipients who are angry that Dr P doesn't take the crappy state health insurance (basic health?). Seriously, Dr P is a good Dr, he has always been very nice to us and very sweet to our 21 month old daughter, and very accurate with his diagnoses. The reason that some of you feel stupid is in all likelihood because you are. Dr P is our Doc and we would not take our baby anywhere else.

We found Dr P at a critical time for our second child. He has been our doctor for 4 years. I have referred several friends. He was very knowledgeable, and a great help. Very concerned about children. I have always found his advice spot on. His staff is wonderful. Love Roberta especially. The hours of the clinic great! BUT he treats parents like they are stupid. I have to chant, "I am doing this for my child not me' over and over again to sit through the exams. The behavior toward myself seems to be escalating. Left in tears after the last appointment. I am currently looking for a doctor as competent but kinder. I will no longer refer my friends to his office.

So Rude...How Dare you!! Shame on you !! At times you are an on call Dr. do you just like to make people feel Stupid? You show no sympathy for these little infants!! You just like to Run your mouth...and oh when you find out that they have Melina ins. You really Do not care!Youare not a person I would never recommend do your co- workers[Dr.'s that you are on call for] REALLY NOW HOW YOU TREAT little helpless infants. How dare you treat these Parents in such a horrible manner.
