Kicked my family out when we told them we ranted to review the boosters. Also talked down to us for wanting to look into it. Must because they would lose there bonus checks. It’s sad when money is more important than health

I have seen this doctor for five years and he never said anything. I went to a different doctor and he said I needed to get surgery because I was diagnosed with 60 degree scoliosis. I was shocked all those years he would look at my back and tell me I was fine but there is no way I am getting surgery. I am working hard in therapy and I have a scoliosis brace it's super hard and painful but I will beat scoliosis without surgery. And one of my moms friends said said he made her son have head surgery. He was only three years old and another doctor told her if you came to me earlier it could have been fixed with one simple pill and your son would not have had to get surgery. I am so upset and shocked this is ridiculous. Well guess what? I'm sick of all this stuff I'm not wasting my money to doctors who aren't going to take good care of me. There is no excuse for what this doctor did to me.

This group of pediatricians is fantastic. I'm always able to get the kids right in, short wait times, and the doctors never rush you. I highly recommend them!

Unfortuately, I have decided to change Pediatricians after the birth of second son due to the ridiculous amount of time we hae spent waiting. They left my son with pnemonia in the waiting room with other kids for over 45 minutes. I did like my doctors but will not wait to be seen.

Dr. George has been taking care of my first child since 1997 and the other four as they have come along over the years. Dr. George is intuitive, friendly, and takes time speaking to the patients as well as the parents. I would not take my children to any other pediatric group.
