| - Good Night Pediatrics, off Green Valley Parkway. I should of reviewed the most recent yelp postings but my pediatrician raves about going to this facility over the 24 hour urgent care at Southwest. Well I followed my doctors directions and was completely shocked at how condescending a pediatric medical professional team member could be in a facility that specializes for children. I arrived at their facility at 4:35 am and honestly was not expected to be seen because I know they close at 5:00 am. The medical assistant mentioned their closing but indicated they would still accept us. She was very nice and patient with us and understood that we traveled far from the NW in the middle of the night to this facility recommend by our doctor. During the triage assessment she said that the dosage for the Motrin I was giving him was not correct from the packaging, which could be a reason why his fever keeps spiking up. I said okay, the last time he was sick was last year so I might have been given some information about that but just purchased a new package of meds and followed the directions. Then when we went into the room, she said to me, she had told me she needed to wake the doctor and he would be right in. Well the first thing this physician said was you only have 8 mins until I leave. Then proceed to ask me a literally 20 questions that were all no until he said why are you here. When I went to state my son had been running a fever, he immediate took out a sheet and said in a condensing voice your giving him the wrong dosage he should have 3x more of what the package says. I replied back okay that is fine and dandy well increase the dosage however is this viral or bacteria, then right when I said this to him he said take his shirt off I will be back (ignoring my question and not stating what will be next). Then the doctor came back (now he was gone for 5 mins) and proceed to assess my son, by checking his breathing, lungs, ears, and throat. He said he needed to do a culture for his throat and called his assistant to come into the room to do it. When he opened the door to call her again he stood at the door and said in a disgusted manner that it takes 8 mins for the results and walked away. After 8 mins was up he said it came back negative and I said then it must be viral at that time he basically gave me the most evillest look ever. Then proceed to lecture me about time and how the medical assistance "bosses" won't like the fact that she has 15 mins of overtime, that I should of came earlier, and that he has been "on" for the past 48 hours (this is the condensed version of him going on for 5 mins about us arriving their before closing). I told him, there won't be a next time, smiled and was walking away and then he proceed to talk about how he gives the dosage of medicine to his own son and that it is more helpful then what is on the package. I know some doctors an be very patronizing to patients but never experienced this in a pediatrician environment (granted I have had the same pediatrician for 15 years with my children) and then to have the doctor turn around and attempt to have a conversation as your walking away is so irrational. First, you want us to leave and then when its not pertaining to treatment you expect a conversation. Nerveless, be cautious when using this facility as it is exaggerated in how it caters to families. I would of much preferred to be turned away with a policy of the last patient must be checked in by 4:30 am then to be treated as being inferior.
At the request to list all aspects of condescending actions during this visit here they are in addition to the above:
*doctor snapping fingers at me while he is talking to invoke a quicker response
*doctor not allowing me to speak until he asks a question
*doctor stating to me that he has been up for 48 hours which is not true since the assisted said she needed to wake him up
*doctor stating to me not to come that late to their facility next time
*doctor demonstrating an annoyed disposition during visit
