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.

DR. Diana Martinez Excellent Pediatric Neurology
It is a shame to have to read comments like this, from a great professional like Dr. Marinez, I have been dealing with Dr. Martinez for many years and she has always been very kind, and cordial, She always takes the time to explain and clarify my Concerns. I highly recommend Dr. Martinez. With all the respect that all people deserve. It is important to take the time and think when a review is going to be given because it is not fair to damage the good name of a great professional such as Dr. Martinez.

Worst experience ever!Stay away from this "doctor"
This is the worst experience I have ever had with a doctor. She made my daughter (16yro) and myself cry due to the impotence. After more than 2 months of waiting for an appointment, we were not even greeted. Her first words were in a demeaning manner were: who told you to come and see me? She did not let us speak, she made fun of my accent, she made fun of my prior neurologist's last name (she is from India). Complete lack of respect, complete lack of consideration, complete lack of empathy. If I could give her 0 stars, I would. I guess she is just tired of working in the field, although I doubt that she ever had any work ethics.

Dr. Martinez is amazing!!!! Years back I took my son to see her when he suddenly stopped speaking. She kept me calm, ran the necessary tests and got him into speech therapy. She also located a cyst on his brain. She gave me info on what to look out for if the cysts caused any problems since it was in a difficult spot and could not be easily removed. Thank God after careful monitoring by her the cyst disappeared on it’s own and my son is speaking. She is beyond wonderful! I will never forget.

Dr. Martinez helped us tremendously in the evaluation of our son, who is special needs & is very complex. When we began seeing her, she let us know that she was very concerned regarding one of his medications. We have changed his medication & his behavior & attitude improved. She has been responsive when my son has issues & she just takes the time to listen to our concerns. Especially, seeing us prior to Hurricane Irma, since we were experiencing issues & had concerns. She is truly an asset.

I was treated very badly and inappropriately by this "doctor" (if you could even call her that). Many tests were done on the patient that were supposedly covered by the insurance, and then we received multiple bills for big amounts of money. Dr. Diana Martinez, along with her "staff" are very DISRESPECTFUL, out of place, and are all for draining your and your insurance's pocket. Treats patients very badly, with screams and hurtful remarks. It is crazy that such person, along with team, sees kids

There isn't enough room on this review page to list my discontent with Dr. Martinez. In short, my wife and I waited months to meet with Dr. Martinez. We were looking for a neurologist to support us as part of a team to help treat and/or guide us in my son's therapy and treatment of his ASD diagnosis and to help us better understand the severity of his ASD. My son is 4 years old and was diagnosed with being on the Spectrum at 2 years old. In our very first(and only) visit, Dr. Martinez's firs

I have known Dr. Martínez for the last 16 years, she was, she is and she always will be the pediatric neurologist of my son. I said that, for a good reason. Sixteen years ago after jumping from one doctor to another doctor and being frustrated and depressed because nobody in that time knew what autism. She has treated my son since that moment and because of her help my son has improved from being a severe autistic patient to a very light autistic patient, almost normal person.DrAlvarez .

My son has been a patient of Dr. Martinez since he was 9 years old and he is now 16 years old. I would like to express my greatest thanks and appreciation to her, her medical assistant Heather, Zulema and her entire staff for their high level of professionalism and the warmth, attention & devotion that they displayed to my son over all these years. Their determination to have things done as quickly and efficiently always came through in everything they did. Thank you so much to Dr. Martinez.

My experience with Dr. Martinez was not positive. She is rude with the parents and it seems that everything we the parents say regarding our children, it bothers her. She doesn't let you expressed yourself and she thinks and treat parents with a diminishing way. She has the wrong attitude to be a Doctor....she needs to understand that the client come first, she needs to listen and respect both the client and parents...without this respect and compassion there will be a lack of communication.
