Your trust is our top concern.

We strive to keep reviews honest, trustworthy, and fair.

Doctors can not pay for good reviews, nor can they pay to have negative reviews removed.

We monitor all reviews to ensure they comply with our guidelines and don’t include personal information, profanity, libel, defamation, harassment, obscenity or fraud.

Any reviews that are deemed fraudulent or violate our guidelines will be removed immediately.

All reviews are confirmed and audited before publication, and community members have the ability to flag inappropriate content for further review by our team.

Doctor Barry was not only my children's pediatrician but my Boss, Greatest Doctor I've ever worked for and my kids loved him! He always had us squeeze in extra patients Sits and actually listens to the parents concerns

Great Pediatrician. Compassionate and patient.
Dr Prystowsky took his time about listening to my concerns about my child’s health. He is very wise and knowledgeable. Whenever I brought my children to him I knew they were in the hands of a great pediatrician. Besides a a wonderful pediatrician he is also a great person .

Dr. Prystowsky is one of the best doctors I have ever had. A rare breed in today's world of getting patients in and out as quickly and inefficiently as possible. He takes the time to get to know his patients, is always professional, and actually treats with empathy and patience. My siblings and I went to him our whole childhood and now have our children see him. With all his years of experience he is always correct in diagnosing his patients. Finding a doctor like him is very difficult. Someone mentioned him being "touchy feely" do not listen to that review. He is NOT creepy or innapropriate at all.

From my observation he was too touchy feely- definitely not necessary. There's no reason why he should be leaning his body on a child. They should have an assistant in the room with the Dr. bc it will always be your word against there's.

never tests, diagnoses without scientific or medical proof. for instance prescribing antibiotics and tamiflu for the flu... but never taking a flu test... and you don't give antibiotics for the FLU.
