We were given and accurate diagosis, and have always been treated with respect. He has always been caring with our children. Even one that is not his patient. I would recommend this doctor to anyone that asks. A truly wonderful doctor.

Terrible doctor with bad pediatric practice. If we had followed his advise then out child would have had severe lifetime problems. Thankfully we found better care and accurate treatment out of town. See at your own risk.

Our diagnosis was accurate and appropriate treatment was explained and given. I have met several other people who have this doctor for their children and have never once heard of a problem from anyone, in fact his reputation with the patients I've met has been very good. That, combined with my own experience, has led me to recommend this doctor to other parents.

Has an ego that prevents him from learning item or consulting with others. Extreme misdiagnosis on echocardiogram many times.
