The Dr I went to yesterday for Emmy was horrible. He didn't even address our concerns and Emmy even gasped for air right in front of him and he didn't even acknowledge it. Pedi is suspecting that her adenoids may be enlarged and so that's why she doesn't breathe through her nose and gasp for air through her mouth. I just really want to get some answers because at night time when she comes to me telling me she has a hard time breathing, it really freaks me out and all I can do is give her signular and inhaler (which doesn't seem to help because I don't even think it's related to her lungs).

LOVE HIM! He did both of Kaitlyn's surgeries for Laryngomalacia and for tubes/adenoid removal and I can't say enough awesome things about him.

He was highly recommended to me by pediatrician and by several moms in my moms' group. I have a friend who is a pediatric pharma rep and she also sang his praises. He was wonderful with Mathis for his tubes and we really like the practice in general.
Him. He did both boys' ear tubes. He is on tap for the adenoid removal for #2, but we're waiting to see if my son's current wellness carries on...
He is skilled. Some think he's the best; though things like that are always up for debate. When we went in for tubes with K1, we met a couple in the prep area whose son had his entire throat down to his GI area reconstructed by Duncan (some birth defect). They were very happy with him and obviously had worked with him in a serious way. That was encouraging.
We went to Dr. Albright in the same practice. And Mia had the exact same problem. He was fantastic. She showed a lot of the same symptoms and he actually told us MORE symptoms that we didn't even realize were a problem. She's perfect now. I'd go back to him with Micah in a heartbeat.
