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.

I can't say anything negative about Dr. Eliza Fernando she was the only pediatrician that helped my son in so many ways. I really wished I would of found her when he was an infant. I am thankful for her having so much patience with my son and understanding that not every child falls in the same category. Every child is different especially one that fought for his life 10 days in NICU when he was born and survived. I will forever be thankful to Dr. Eliza Fernando.

If I can give this dr a zero instead of 1 star I would. This dr. Has no communication skills what so ever. When I had asked her how often should I feed my baby 2-3 hours she told me if I’m not working I should feed him. This feels like an insult. A good pediatrician wouldn’t judge a mother. She told me to take my son to an emergency room because she’s only there 2 days a week and she’s ordering me to go to the hospital emergency room when she knows their is a lot of viruses and with the coronavirus going around. I wasn’t even going to take a chance to expose my son. I Wouldn’t recommend this lady to any parent. I am concerned parent.
