Due to repeated prescription screwups on the part of the nurse practitioners, we will be searching for a new pediatrician. The latest mistake was an incorrect dose on a critical medication right before the weekend. After waiting several hours without any response, a nurse finally answered a page but refused to contact the doctor for verification of the correct dosage because he ""wasn't working today"".
This incompetence is inevitably going to cause a tragedy for some family some day, but I'm making sure it won't be mine. We're leaving a great doctor because we cannot trust the staff to follow his instructions correctly. AVOID THIS PLACE IF YOU HAVE A CHILD WITH SERIOUS MEDICAL NEEDS. The staff cannot be trusted with important tasks.
