I brought her to this demon to establish her as a new patient and have her ears checked because she was spiking 104 degree temperature and he not only lied saying it was safe and "old school information" (because my previous child was born 16 yrs prior to her) and kept insisting she needed to be "caught up" because we were on a delayed schedule with her previous pediatrician he began suggesting that if I refused at least 3 he would report me for endangering her...he lied and introduce not 3 BUT 14 DIFFERENT VIRUSES INTO HER BODY AT 14 MON AND SICK! He has to face God for what he's done.

My Son saw Dr. Davis from about age 10-16 and everything was fine. But when I noticed possible…read moresigns of autism in my 16 year old son I asked Dr Davis if maybe he was autistic as it runs in my family. He instantly disregarded my concerns and said we would of caught the signs by now if he was. He did not make my concerns feel heard and he did not even ask me any questions as to why I felt this. He was very dismissive and almost spoke to me as if I was an awful parent for even asking something about my son like that. Since then my son has been diagnosed as being on the autistic spectrum by another Dr.

I know people don't often review medical practitioners on Yelp but, heck, I think they should!…read more I had my first baby just recently, and being relatively new to the area, I was really shooting in the dark when it came to selecting a Pediatrician. I attended Sutter's "Meet the Pediatricians" event and Dr. Zembal was presenting. My husband and I instantly liked him. He has, in our opinions, an approach that is a perfect blend of taking parents' concerns seriously, while also keeping you from worrying needlessly. This is such an art- especially when it comes to new parents who are in very unfamiliar territory- not knowing when to be concerned or not. Unfortunately for many doctors, it almost doesn't matter how good they are if they have a front office or nursing staff who are rude or not helpful. Certainly not the case here! The staff and nurses at Dr. Zembal's office are all wonderful, friendly, professional and helpful- which was such a relief! They are going to be moving their office a little further away (for me, anyway) soon but I can honestly say that it doesn't matter. I would drive to Petaluma if that's where they moved to!

I went in for a 2:45 appointment on 10/13 with my children who were very sick…read more The receptionist mentioned they did not take Medical or Partnership Health Plan when we arrived. That was fine with me, I would just pay out of pocket as we were already there for the appointment. The receptionist (light, short curly hair) wearing a pink shirt stated that she isn't supposed to be doing this. Doing what exactly? Accepting patients who were paying out of pocket? We promptly walked out after seeing her attitude toward us. She was extremely rude and condescending. Faye S. Lundergan, do yourself a favor and hire a receptionist who actually likes their job. Otherwise, I am pretty sure you will be out of business soon with this treatment toward families. Quick summary: -This office does NOT accept Medical or Partnership -This office does NOT accept patients paying out of pocket... -Receptionist is VERY rude There are better pediatricians in Petaluma so I recommend not coming here.

When they were little he was fun and gentle and now as they mature he is those things and more - he is thoughtful and speaks with care. Through the years he hasn't hesitated when unusual things arise to confer with the other pediatricians in his office or refer us to specialist when needed. Many times he personally has called to check in on a sick kid or to return a message left for him and to ease my mind or give direction what steps to take. Dr. Brewer makes a personal connection. We have seen him out and about in the community and he always says Hello, sometimes before we have and even when he is clearly with his family. Very cute. I couldn't recommend him more!

If he sees that we have been in the er over the weekend he will check up on us that week. Dr. Brewer has been amazing and I trust him with my kids lives- and that says A LOT.

They actually lied saying they didn't have the equipment, because as DOCTOR lindergen put it it was almost 5 o'clock.

I was so Irate when i left there that day you have no idea. I'm still upset just thinking about it. They have to do better. I've had several other times when Dr Depala said, " Oh the staff should have never given you that advice that was completely wrong." And never see Dr Lindergren she herself has given me the wrong antibiotics and horrible advice on numerous occasions. She also once told me to get some backbone in my voice when I complained of feeling overwhelmed with two kids. Which proves she doesn't know me at all. She never remembers that I've been sick, and in and out of the hospital the last year. (my old dr used to always ask how we were doing. It may may sound selffish but is acually important info when treating the child to know how the parent ar dealing with a new phase, ect.)
