Very awesome neurologist. We love Dr. Flatt. He is very caring the to grandchildren trust and love him dearly. I don’t know what to do without him. I just found out he’s not in practice and We are so heartbroken. He’s the best he saved my grandchildren. Always loving caring explains to any questions we had. Took time with the children. They are heartbroken when I told them he wasn’t in practice. I’ve had some bad experience from New Orleans neurologist. So when we found Dr. Flatt he was god’s gift for us. Praying he will come back and be there neurologist. The best man we ever had and a personality out of this world with us and the children. We are lost and don’t know what to do. But will have to find another neurologist. Praying for a great one again. Love Dr John Flatt. The Manning children.

Not certain why is rating is low, but my chold has been a patient of his for years and he has helped tremendously. Easy to communicate with and takes his time to answer all questions. My family loves him.

He misdiagnosed my daughter with “anxiety” Instead of Seizures. Went to Children’s with a Qualified staff to Lear’s she has a brain tumor. Run from this Dr is is a loser and needs to find another occupation. He also can’t get it together with an office. He jumps ship from place to place.

He saw my son for tics, gave him a medicine that made him sick. When I called and left messages that the medicine was making him worse, kept being told to just increase the dose. Finally gave up and went to find another doctor. He should not practice medicine.

This was the worse experience ever. I have been calling this office for 2 weeks now leaving messages and calling and I am yet to get a return call. Dr. Flatt diagnosed my daughter with migraines. But her headaches where getting worse since we saw the Dr. Flatt. After days of no return calls or messages from this office we went to our local Dr. where they did a MRI on my daughter. She's now have emergency surgery.

Misdiagnosed my child, treated with medicines that made her worse, and then was rude when I asked questions.
