This woman has no right being able to practice ! Completely closed minded, only her opinion matters and what ever she says goes. This is what happens when someone is given too much power without any checks and balances. She destroys families and children with no consequences ! She is the one abusing children, mentally by accusing there parents of child abuse and taking them away !! This woman needs to be stopped ! Reader be warned, don't ever take your children to Children's Hospital of Pittsburgh with any kind of injury because the odds of you not coming home with them are extremely high if Janet Squires has anything to say about it !!

Worst doctor I've ever dealt with. I hope the reviews that are posted help others to decide to never take your child to her. She has wronged so many families. Good families that love there children, all because of her wrong. My visit with her turned into more of a mess, wrong diagnosis and a very heartbroken family. Just wish she wouldn't be so fast to pass judgement before possibly considering other facts.... Crazy what power she has and what she does to people not only parents but the suffering the kids also have to go thru! Explore all medical options before pointing the finger.....

This doctor was probably one of the worst doctors i have ever dealt with! i would not ever recomend here to anyone, not ever my worst enemy! She really needs to explore all options of her medical knowledge, i feel like she was very judgemental and did not go out of her way to explore all medical options before jumping to an accusation!
