Dr. Pilz has been practicing pediatrics since 1997, and is the proud father of five children of his own. He co-founded Riverside Pediatrics in 2003 with Dr. Tammy Bottner. Located across the street from the Anna Jaques, the practice is able to utilize the hospitals technology for care and access a large network of sub-specialists across the Merrimack Valley and in Boston. The small office setting allows doctors to develop relationships with their patients, from infancy to adolescence.

After 16 years of two kids with Dr Pilz and his staff I have nothing but positive feedback for this practice and staff. They opened on Sat mornings for sick patients which really helps. The only concern I have is care after hours is always an issue.

Dr. Pilz has always been and will always be our favorite doctor, my now 12 and 9 year old have both seen him since birth! He always remembers my children and is very professional!

Mom of 3. It seems with each year, Dr. Pilz is giving less and less time during physicals and visits. He barely looks up from his computer and seems annoyed when asked questions. This is particularly annoying during annual visits as I feel that is the time to make time. The front desk person that greets you is pretty rude too. Very curt.

Wonderful. Dr. Pilz is has a very calming manner. He diagnosed my son when the ER and dermatology couldn't. Great staff.

His staff didn't give Dr. Pilz messages regarding my very ill son. Including a message from an emergency room nurse. Due to their unprofessionalism my son spent 5 days at Mass. General Hosp. Dr. Pilz and his staff never followed up to make sure his patient was feeling better. Completely irresponsible and I know it isn't the first time.
