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.

Great pediatrician.
My son is 18 years old and has been Doctor Glotzer's patient since he was 3 days old. I had some challenges with my son's health due to a severe anaphylactic food allergy (dairy and shellfish) and asthma. She helped me go through these challenges and believed me as a mother when my son first showed signs of allergies when the symptoms appeared after the emergency doctor told me his symptoms were DEFINITELY not allergy symptoms.

Dr. Glotzer is very knowledgeable and responsive. She cared for my son for 2 years and then we had to move away. We definitely miss her.

Glotzer is not only completely incompetent but I fear her being around children. She makes rude unsolicited comments that have no medical warranting. She has on multiple occasions made comments on my parenting style and called my child fat (tho she is in the 70th percentile). She has is also very judgmental and makes sexist comments that frankly are harmful for a young developing youth to overhear. Do NOT go here. I'd also be remiss not to say her front desk staff is just awful.

She often tries to find ways to attempt to talk me out of doing what we both is best for my son. I liked her initially but quality of her care has declined greatly over the years as I realized she is not that great, but it is Cambridge City Hospital. They aren't the greatest anyways.

Dr. Glotzer is warm, professional, very responsive and highly knowledgeable. She has been our children's pediatrician since they were born and they are now 15 and 17. She takes time to answer all questions and concerns. We recommend her very highly - you couldn't find a better pediatrician.
