Dr. Mitchell C Reese, MD

Just plain negligent!!!

Do not, I repeat DO NOT let this man give your child a circumcision!! He failed to do the procedure properly on my son and the skin re-attached, then Dr. Reese forced/ripped it apart at the next check up, then proceeded to tell me I should have been pulling it back and applying vaseline at every change. He never told me to do that! All he told me was to use the vaseline until the ring came off. Due to his negligence, my son has went through pain he did not have to go through. To this day the skin continues to re-attach despite always having it pulled back and vaseline applied. My son may possibly have to get re-circumsized by a urologist when he is older and have permanent scarring. ALSO: He lied to me about combined vaccines. Now a days most of the vaccines needed at the 4 and 6 month check-ups can be combined down to 2 or 3 instead of 5. I had requested the combined vaccines so there would be less needles for my son and Dr. Reese told me that there are no combined vaccines. He must… think I'm an idiot who does no research. I left right away and took my son to another pediatrician who lo-and-behold...had the combined vaccines! This doctor is a careless jerk and I have no idea how he has stayed in business so long.

I scheduled an appointment for my son with Dr. Mitchell. My son was having a hard time breathing and had this awful walrus like cough. I had to wait over an hour and a half to see Dr. Mitchell. When he finally came in the room I explained what was going on with my son and he listed to his chest. He said my son just had a cold. I explained my worries that my son did not want to do anything and he had a hard time sleeping. He did not run any tests or prescribe anything for him. Later that night my son spiked a high fever and I rushed him to the emergency room. They took a chest and throat x-ray. He was diagnosed with croup and pneumonia. This is very life threatening for a baby. I will no longer be taking my son to this facility.
