  • We are finally leaving his practice with our 18 mos old son! When he was 2.5 weeks old he spiked a high fever & I called the nurses line & asked if we should take him to the hosp, bring him into the office, or wait it out. She said to bring him in & that the soonest appointment they had wasn't for 6 hrs. We brought him in, waited to get a room & Bonnie the NP came in & told us to get him to the hosp ASAP. Why did your nurse make us wait 6 hrs instead of instructing us to go straight to the hosp when a high fever = immediate hosp visit with newborns? Our son was in the hosp for a week with a UTI & Dr Tenby never stopped by, never called us to check on him...we got nothing. With 6 kids I have never had a child go to the hospital w/o having their pediatrician stop in to check on them. We were going to leave his office at that point because our trust was broken but by the time our son was released he only had a few days to get his circumcision done and because of the UTI it was highly recommended that he get it done. My brother is an Oncologist and he agreed so, we brought him back to Dr. Tenby who left too much skin on one side leaving it lopped sided with a bump of skin. I showed it to two other pediatricians who said it wasn't done very well but he would be fine and the extra skin would thin out as he grew. I don't know why we stayed. Our son developed a rash 4 mos ago while he was sick with croup & steroid cream was prescribed. That only made it better for a couple of days and it never completely went away before spreading. 2 mos later we bring him back in & were prescribed steroid cream again. Same thing happens. So by mos 4 this rash has spread to his face & mouth. We were told by the Pediatric attending at the UCLA Medical Center where my brother works that we needed to stop using steroids immediately & that they aren't meant to be used past two weeks so we discontinue use. We bring him back in to the office where we request to meet with Dr Tenby & not the NP for a 2nd opinion and the doctor notices that our son's throat is irritated and he does a rapid strep test that comes back negative.The doctor prescribes a lower dosage of steroid cream (steroids again) for the rash, gives us a referral for a dermatologist (thank god) and says that he is going to send a strep culture off to the lab & the results should be back in 2 days. My husband was the one who brought him to the appointment and he had forgotten to mention that our oldest son had strep a week prior. So my husband went back to the doctors office and waited an hour for the doctor to get back from lunch & informed him that strep was going around the house and the doctor reassured my husband that it would only be 2 days to get the results back & would not be prescribing him antibiotics without a positive result. I am against over prescribing antibiotics as well so we wait. 2 days go by & we hear nothing which means the doctor was correct & our son just has a virus but now my husband is in Urgent Care with Strep...ugh! Our son isn't getting better but he isn't worse either until Tues afternoon after his nap when he woke up hysterically crying & in misery. This is exactly 1 week after his strep test. That's 7 days!!! Right when we were preparing for another trip to Urgent Care we get a call at 5:30 pm saying that his results were positive for strep & antibiotics were called in. What? I left a not so pleasant message for his office & got a call back from Bonnie saying that she thinks there was a concern for the culture results? She thinks? Nice. I run a daycare & am unable to answer my phone during operation hours if I want to be able to hear what the other person is saying & so I call back before work & leave a message letting them know this & told them everything I am writing here and explained that we are leaving his practice. Doctor Tenby calls again with irritation in his voice & says that the results probably came back Friday (but that's 3 days after it was taken not 2 days) & that Bonnie was out of town & she usually takes care of the results and that he might have missed a few that day because it's not something he usually takes care of. Understandable to a point but aren't test results important? Then he goes on to say "But you were notified the following week & treated. Most doctors don't send a 2nd test off to a lab & only go by the rapid strep test results which are 95% accurate but they did send it off & got a positive result & treated our son." Um, thanks for the apology for not getting back to us when you said you would. That would have made a world of difference. & by the following week you mean Tues eve? Not Mon morning but Tues eve, 7 days later when you assured us it would be 2 days & you should have sent it off with strep going around our house plus 3 out of 3 ppl in our house that have had the rapid strep test come back negative & all three actually had strep. That's 100% inaccurate for us. I feel guilty for not leaving sooner.
