I just left her office today. I was actually trying to get to another pediatrician and, I guess she ate that one, because everyone seemed to think I was in the right place, even though I was trying to book with a DO and she's an MD. This woman, REFUSED to vaccinate my child because she assumed I was "litigious". I am new to the area and was looking to establish a relationship with a new pediatrician and have discussions regarding my sons and their medical issues. I gave her a brief run down of our family medical history, which she told me wasn't relevant, and that I should be carrying around the medical records for my kids. Not just shot records, either. Not only did she refuse care to someone seeking care, she was horribly disrespectful to me in front of my sons. I have never, ever been treated so badly by a doctor. She was totally incapable of having a conversation about my children or their care. She demonstrated a lack in emotional intelligence and critical thinking skills.

I have taken my children to Dr. Ellis-Jammal for the past 6 years. She is attentive, thorough, and generally lovely to talk to about all sorts of issues; from developmental concerns, allergies, vaccinations, and stubborn symptoms that don't go away. I would recommend her highly to anyone as I feel her level of care and bed-side manner is wonderful.

Miserable office that I would never recommend to anyone. The secretary clearly hates her job, the nurse was sighing and put out because we asked to used the restroom and we were refused service because I forgot my daughters insurance card. I had mine- info is the same- AND we previously provided the info and I offered to have my husband scan and send her card but we were still shown the door. Appalling.
