    I brought my son to this practice for 11 years and it was great until he started getting really…read moresick. Dr. Gully really is nice and really does care for patients, however there are times when she doesn't listen and doesn't notice how sick a child really is. The first time it happened she apologized and gave us a second visit where she was far more helpful. Then last year my son was really sick again and Dr. Gully didn't want to provide sick notes or homebound forms for his absences so she just dropped him from her practice. I had no idea why she had done this. I contacted the practice manager to inquire about it and Dr. Gully then called to discuss it with me. She said that she would only provide notes when a patient had been seen since day one of their illness, which was never the case with my son. My mom Is a doctor who is able to help us with minor illnesses so we only go to see Dr. Gully if illness is severe or prolonged. I agreed to bring him whenever he got sick immediately and all was well so we stuck with her. Then he got sick again, really sick, with a virus. I brought him in immediately to comply with her expectations. Once again Dr. Gully didn't listen well. She kept talking about his illness from last year instead of focusing on the current illness which was causing him to writhe in pain for 4-5 hours every night until about 3 or 4 am. I asked again and again what could be done for symptom relief. Her only suggestions were Tylenol or Motrin which proved ineffective so I brought him back in to see what else could be done. Her only suggestions then were to "love on him" or bring him to the ER, both inadequate suggestions. You can't hold a child who is writhing in pain and the ER is for acute illness and injury, not viruses. She should have done some investigating to figure out how to treat him or referred him to someone else, not give up and offer terrible suggestions. Then when I asked her to update his sick note she took it and said she would call the principal directly. Then I got an e-mail from the principal in which he told me Dr. Gully had said my child showed no evidence of illness and should return to school immediately. I had done everything she required for a note and still hadn't gotten one. (I did eventually get one after complaining to the practice manager.) Dr. Gully should have voiced her opinion at our office visit, not go behind my back. She seemed to think my son was just not wanting to go to school, but if a kid fakes an illness they heat up a thermometer or pretend to have stomach pain. They don't writhe in pain crying, moaning, and begging for help for 5 hours every night. So now I was pressured to bring my sick child who was barely sleeping at night back to school. How was he ever supposed to recover if I did that? Furthermore, he did have observable signs of illness, a fever, which they were aware of when the nurse took his temperature. I immediately found my son a new doctor. This doctor noticed my son's lymph nodes were swollen, a sign of infection which Dr. Gully had missed, and he told us that we could combine Tylenol and Motrin in adult doses giving us exact directions about how large the doses should be and that finally proved to be helpful is easing the pain. By not believing that my son was sick Dr. Gully failed to provide him the medical advice he desperately needed and the note he needed so he could rest and heal.

    My son has been seeing Dr. Gully for 3 years now. I can't think of a better experience we've had…read morewith a pediatric practice. Dr. Gully is wonderful - she caring, knowledgable and very thorough. She has an excellent bedside manner; in fact, it's the best I've ever seen. Dr. Gully is great at explaining things and she never talks down to me or my son. Her front office staff and nurses are also friendly and helpful. Whenever I've had a glitch with insurance, they've helped me navigate it. I would HIGHLY recommend Blue Ridge Pediatrics to anyone looking for quality care for their children. They are simply the best!
