I've been coming here for a little over two years for my allergies. Dr. Jones was thorough, took…read morehis time with me, and didn't make me feel pressured to do anything I didn't want. He's easy to talk to and laid back. The front desk staff are also very kind and welcoming as well as the nurses. Service is generally really quick but sometimes I do have to wait a bit during peak hours. The facility is always very clean as well.

The biller Kelsey at Peak Allergy ruins the entire reputation for the business and dampers the…read morepatient experience immensely. About 5 months ago I left a negative review regarding the same disrespectful staff member which was then deleted after leadership at Peak called me and attempted to make things right. However, I am now beyond regretful that I deleted that review instead of continuing to warn others. When my son was just recently referred to an allergist, I asked the provider to please send us to anyone but Peak Allergy however, Peak was found to be the only facility accepting our insurance therefore I had no chojce but to give them a second chance. I called in to svhedule and was told I cannot make an appointment until a previous $20 balance was settled. This is why I had to again be sent over to speak with Kelsey the billing specialist. I left her a message regarding the balance and requested a call back. Middle of the week, on the following week - I still had not heard back so I called Peak Allergy again. When they transferred me to Kelsey the first thing she did is argue with me in an attempt to prove she called me back last week. I let her know I check voicemails daily and didn't have one to reference. She attempted to pull up my chart and argue further about her calling back. At this point, I simply requested we stay focused and discussed the balance instead. With her disgusting attitude she states "No one told you that you couldn't book with us." --- Like?? You think Id agree to speak with you for fun Kelsey? I was told these were the hoops I had to jump through to get my son care.. She continued on with her condescending tone and lack of patient care through the call until I confronted her about the way she treats patients to which her response was "I'm sorry you feel that way." I am all for understanding a bad day, but this has now been multiple incidents with the exact same staff member with the same behavior during each interaction. Peak Allergy would lose patients if it wasn't for lack of insurance acceptance at other allergy offices! Im so disappointed in her lack of professionalism and care. If Peak was concerned with their image - this person should be addressed immediately.

We were referred for my son. Shortly after we made the appointment we received a packet in the mail…read moreto fill out before the appointment which was great. We were also told that we needed to be there 30 mins before the appointment. We got there early and turned in the packet and just sat and waited for so long since there was nothing needed so I'm not really sure why it was required to be there at least 30 mins before. Once we got in the room the doctor asked me very few questions that was literally in the paperwork in his hand that I had filled out. We spent maybe 5 minutes with the doctor for literally nothing. It was a very bad experience and a waste of time and money. We will be finding somewhere else to go. Also the doctor made us feel very uncomfortable, frequently staring at my teen daughter even though she wasn't the patient and sitting in the corner and the appointment was for my 3 year old son and she was very uncomfortable and asked me when we got to the car why he was looking at her so much, so the fact she was aware of it too is a huge red flag. We will not be returning.

I am writing in regard to my experience as a post-operative patient of Dr. Anthony Michael…read moreSciascia, II, MD (License No.: 16951), (Dr. Sciascia for future references), an Emergency Physician with Renown Health Systems. The following link will take you the Nevada State Board of Medical Examiners where you can enter his last name and review his previous medical background and training (https://nsbme.mylicense.com/verification/Search.aspx). Earlier this week, I had the misfortune of interacting with Dr. Sciascia in one of the Emergency Rooms (ER) associated with Renown Medical Center. I have never come into contact with such a rude, condescending, and offensive health care provider. I should note that I, too, am a doctor and Federal Law Enforcement Officer, so I deal with difficult personalities on a daily basis. I would also like to note that I would never treat any of my patients, no matter who they are or what they've done, the way Dr. Sciascia treated me. This is unacceptable, and I intend on bringing this to the attention of anyone who may come into contact with this physician, someone who should not be allowed to treat patients. When I went to the ER, I was two days post-op, and in a considerable amount of pain. As I previously mentioned, I was unlucky to have Dr. Sciascia pick up my case. From the first moment I met him, there was something odd about his demeanor and he had the worst bedside demeanor I have ever witnessed. My friend that accompanied me to the ER said the exact thing, and she actually picked up on this vibe before I did. As an aside, all of the nurses were flabbergasted by my account of what occurred during my interactions with Dr. Sciascia. Long story short, Dr. Sciascia essentially accused me of drug-seeking, and told me that he didn't believe that I was actually experiencing pain, despite being 2 days postop. Dr. Sciascia was literally trying to instigate an argument with me, which I refused to engage in. He compared to me heroin addicts, which I am not, as well as misusing my pain medication, which I did not. Dr. Sciascia then compared me to other patients he has seen with "broken bones sticking" sticking out of their skin and that they refused to take any medication at all. First of all, I dislike being compared to other people, especially when their injuries are not even close to what my surgery or pain entailed. As a man, Dr. Sciascia does not know how painful certain 'female conditions' can be, so it is extremely rude to dismiss as if it meant nothing. Dr. Sciascia invalidated the pain I was experiencing, and I refuse to let anyone treat or speak to me in such a manner. Prior to being released from the ER, he informed me that I was going to be prescribed Gabapentin, a drug with which I am familiar. Gabapentin, also known as Neurontin, is a medication used for neuropathic pain, not postoperative pain. I asked Dr. Sciascia how that would be helpful in my situation, and he literally said, "I don't know." My friend advocated for me by asking for something that actually helped me, and he switched it to a muscle relaxant, which I refuse to take. I am unfamiliar with that medication, and I have lost trust in doctors in Renown's ER. More than one nurse I came into contact with during my several hour stint in the ER informed me that Dr. Sciascia "has a really weird demeanor...[and] has no bedside manner." They said more, but I hope you get where I am coming from. I will be taking this to the medical board of NV, as well as any site on which a review can be posted. Dr. Sciascia caused more harm than good, as I was extremely upset when leaving the ER, and I was still in pain. Given that I have only had one experience with Dr. Sciascia, I cannot comment on his overall competence as an ER Physician, and it would be unethical of me to do so. I can only speak to my personal experience with Dr. Sciascia, which was so horrific that I will never return to that ER for fear of coming into contact with him again. I am writing this review in hopes that others will read this and steer clear of Dr. Sciascia, if at all possible. If you want to be treated like a human being, find another doctor. Further, as a doctor myself (not an MD), I am a strong advocate for those who may not have the knowledge, access, or resources to go up against a physician. This is NOT over. Thank you for reading.

We were so frustrated, however I am glad that Dr. Sciascia (pronounced "Sha-sha") was able to treat him. Although the ER was incredibly busy that day, Dr. Sciascia made an effort to find the root of the problem without pushing him to have unnecessary medications, labs, etc. He suggested some over the counter meds we could purchase, gave us a prescription, and referred him to an allergist. Most importantly, he took the time to answer all of our questions and check on him before we left. It was the most efficient and caring ER visit we had. Plus, he's hilarious and super personable. Highly recommended!

DO NOT COME HERE!!…read more If I could give zero stars I would. This was the biggest waste of time I've ever experienced. I walked in at three when my appointment was at three and I waited 38 minutes to see the doctor. The nurse came back and asked a bunch of questions and wrote them on paper... Yes I said it paper! They do not have an electronic system, they are still on paper files. They should've been the biggest red flag for me to run. Ugh!! Then the overweight & extremely old doctor came in and said I think you have the wrong specialist. He didn't want to give me the time of day and didn't even care to really listen because he had already made up his mind about me. He was extremely rude and condescending, and really impatient. He kept repeating "well did your throat close up" like that is the only symptom of an allergy. I guess the only plus side is that he said he wouldn't charge me for wasting my time. He then had the audacity to say "I hope this helps" and I got the chance to say nope... You did not help me one bit you wasted my time. Very frustrated and I do not recommend coming here ever!! Find a younger, kinder, up-to-date doctor that's living in the 21st-century. Office was old, small, and it was very hot in there! I will say it one more time... They are still on the paper system. Yikes!

I still am unable to receive the medical records I have requested several times in the last year. Dr. Hogan has horrible bedside manner! Her medical advice is confusing and contradicting. Being that she is one of only a few pediatric allergists in town, we had no choice but to use her for several visits. She treated myself and my husband as if we were personally attacking her and our questions were the stupidest thing she had ever heard. She REFUSED to work with us on blood tests, medication and action plans. Our questions were never directly answered and future treatments plans were never given. We always left frustrated with many more questions. We have since visited our pediatrician and another allergist who have given us different medical advice. This makes us question how Dr. Hogan treated our son for the last year.

My family found Dr. Hogan to be a good doctor in her thoroughness, expertise and demeanor…read morethroughout her care for my son. However, when we needed her office staff to complete an authorization for our school's nurse to administer a med previously prescribed by Dr. Hogan, we learned that their policy forbade it, despite our son being put at-risk if the med could not be administered. They clearly displayed a concern for liability taking precedent over ensuring the well-being of our son. In this multi-day dealing, the head nurse and office manager were intractable, disrespectful and at moments, downright rude. The head nurse even hung up on my wife in the middle of a phone conversation. Once we reached the end of this very disagreeable set of interactions, we called my son's pediatrician and he and his office had a new prescription to us and an authorization completed and sent to the school nurse in less than 24 hours. We are firing this doctor, will seek out a new one and will be sure and encourage anyone that we come across who needs an allergist to look elsewhere.

When Dr. Wilson walked in he had already made up his mind and he did not listen to a word I said. In spite of the fact my child has had positive allergy tests, multiple documented reactions that responded to antihistamines, family history of allergies etc etc Dr. Wilson insisted every single reaction was due to a series of viral infections. I tried to give more information and I was immediately shut down. When I expressed concern that I was not being listened to, Dr. Wilson became extremely defensive to the point of being rude. He sited a long list of his credentials and said I had no other choice for allergy care in Reno. (This is not true by the way.) He made huge assumptions about how we have handled my child's allergies thus far, which were completely off the mark. No allergy testing was done. The bill: over $200. I did not make a follow-up appointment. I sought out a second opinion from another doctor and a very different diagnosis was reached.

She is also very supportive of a parents rights to choose what's best for their child. They do require you to follow the CDC vaccine schedule, but everything else is whatever you think is best for your baby. She was supportive of our home birth plan and was okay with us bringing the baby ASAP after birth. But we transitioned to the hospital for birth and she was supportive of that too. She visited our baby every day we were at Renown. Unfortunately they just moved locations and the new office isn't as conveniently located.

Even though it is a bit of a drive for me,I would definitely recommend Reno pediatrics.
