We don't recommend this doctor to anyone. He is not ready to listen parents concerns. He is least bothered about missing milestones. He has very less knowledge about developmental delays. Very much disappointing.

He is not bothered of any of our concerns. His way of diagnosis is very strange. I don't recommend this doctor to anybody.
