Overview

Services

I have more than 20 years experience caring for children and adults with allergic and immunologic disorders.  I believe in partnering with patients and families to address their needs, as the same approach does not work for everyone.  I am involved in research focused  preventing and treating food allergies.

This is by far the worst care we have ever received by CHW. My daughter came in for hospital follow up due to being admitted over the weekend for asthma/sob. Her provider was not available so we were scheduled with this provider. He walked in and said my resident will be joining me. (Didn't ask-told) He did not wash/sanitize his hands when he came into the room. The provider came in and right away said it's viral and my daughter has anxiety. The provider only listened to her lungs for 3 seconds-in 3 locations. He was so quick the resident didn't even have the opportunity to listen. The provider said he wanted to put a referral in for speech however did not elaborate why? He stated he was going to print out some exercises he wanted my daughter to do. He returned and handed the papers to her without explaining anything and said return in 4 months. We assumed maybe the MA would go over the paperwork but she didn't. I informed the MA we needed the appointment to be scheduled for a Wednesday as I have off work. She gave me two dates and then told me that this provider doesn't work on Wednesdays. When I informed the her that we would have to look at our schedules and call back she got up and said "okay you're free to go call us to schedule that appointment" and walked out of the room. She never even told us how to get out. I worked at children's and I am still in the health care so I am very understanding however this was a disappointment. We drove in the snow for nothing. The provider didn't even listen to her lungs long enough to make a try dx. He billed us for 30 minutes which is interesting since he was only in the room for 5 minutes did not consult us on anything just gave Is printouts and epic does not take 20 minutes to review charts. Very disappointing. Would not recommend this provider to anyone and will tell my patients parents not to also.

Just a little slow and long waiting for the medical doctor, we could hear/know he was being held up with another family in the room next door. It made the appointment longer than needed to be for waiting.

Staff and doctor were kind and helpful and understanding. I will definitely try to make my children appointment at this location more often.

It was very thorough. I got all the information I needed. The caretakers were very patient with my child and actually saw us because I was running a little late. And it was just an awesome experience.

I felt like the doctor was super nice and informative and took a lot of time explaining all and answering all of my questions and all of our options and what the best care would be for my son. I really enjoyed the visit.
