My child has been going to this dr for a few years and yes a few problems have occurred The long waits rude behavior wrong diagnosis but yet I tried to give her a chance . I drew the line at her trying to insult my intelligence when telling her no I will not overdose my child on the meds she was giving . Currently with a new dr and feeling so much better
