Columbia Memorial Pediatrics

Was in the waiting room for hours. So was this old lady and her daughter. I overheard her blood levels were low. When the nurse came to get her I her the daughter yell "she doesn't need an X-ray she needs blood". Can you say malpractice because I can.

I’m only giving it a one for their reception staff. My infant son saw a physician here at the Jefferson heights office. We brought him in for his two week check up and four week check up. We brought up a couple of concerns all which she stated were normal and not to worry. Lone and behold the terrible rashes, constant crying, lethargy, throwing up, and swollen face she claimed to be normal (although I expressed what I thought it was) were absolutely not. My son was suffering from a milk protein allergy and was admitted to the hospital for 5 days because his immune system was weak and needed IV antibiotics. She Completely dismissed everything I was saying to her about his symptoms. I could have lost my son because of her neglegence. Thank god I listened to myself and did my own research whe

Very terrible receptionist. The doctor was forceful and seemed to be obsessed with trying to vaccinate me even after I had explained to her I would do it later. She just kept pressuring me.

Terrible experience. We have been patients for the last 5 months (mostly at the Hudson office). It is a little dingy and more importantly - it is hard to get an appointment, they will often change your appointment and they are constantly running behind. This office (Catskills) cancelled our appt last week and rescheduled us for Monday, then they called on Monday and rescheduled our appt again because “Dr Hechanova took the day off” and rescheduled us for Wednesday. When we got there on Wednesday, they made us wait 30 minutes and when I asked how much longer it might be they said “probably a while longer” so we just left. It was a 20 minute drive for us in both directions plus the wait time. This practice has seriously interrupted my work schedule over the last few months, and we are now

the doctors here are great. Mary the receptionist is not. She is incredibly argumentative about absolutely nothing. This woman would argue about the sky being blue. I am hoping to find a new pediatrician just so I can never see this woman again.
