Dr Schwartz was my pediatrician. I am now a Registered Nurse and I work in private practice with my husband, who is a physician.

Dr Schwartz was incredibly rude and insensitive to me as a child, when I was struggling with my weight. My healthcare appointments with him as a child were always traumatic. When I was 13 or 14, Dr Schwartz accused me of being sexually active (which I was not), then he threatened to have a nurse come in and hold me down when I refused to allow him to examine my genitals.

There are so many other pediatricians for your child. Stay away from this one!!

Most of the time, they don't call me back for quite a while. I don't like that they don't always allow me to accompany my child, and sometimes make me wait in the waiting room. getting a convenient appointment time with them is almost impossible. They have really weird availability and I always have a hard time making an appointment. This provider has no helpful information available online, apart from their address and phone number. They just have a basic listings page.
The worst service possible. Please don't waste your time here. The doctor never sees you in case of emergencies. Its always the nurse practitioner who looks at your child and that too after 30 - 45 mins wait.My child was sick with 103.4 temp and they kept me waiting for full 35 mins.
The front desk and nurse ( i guess lisa..) are pretty rude and Dr. Schwartz is the weirdest of all. Please stay away from this service.

They were so mean, and made me feel like I wasn't a good parent just because I didn't agree with them on certain parenting issues. I left there very upset. The chairs in the waiting room were not too comfortable and hurt my back while waiting for my child's appointment. I practically jumped out of it as soon as they called our name for the appointment.
I don't think they have any qualifications! There definitely wasn't anything displayed. I had to wait a while after I arrived for my appointment. The staff didn't even keep me updated about how much longer it would be. My child hated this pediatrician so much that we no longer see them. Their bedside manner was atrocious. They shouldn't be dealing with kids.
