I've since had 2 other children and even when sick our visits with him are so pleasant and he is so reassuring.

I understand kids get sick often, but his sick is different than other kids sick. I have gone from doctor to doctor begging to do any kind of testing and was always brushed off as just a worriesome mom. Last night we saw Dr Labaro who looked in depth at his chart and history and did a full exam and determined him to have asthma. She wrote up a very in depth, color coded, chart of all the different zones of asthma and when to give him what medicines and referred him to a breathing specialist. She took her time with us and ensured that I understood everything she was prescribing and saying. Dr Labaro is the first doctor who took the time to listen to me, validate my concerns, and help my son. I will never see anyone else for my kids if I have a choice!!! Thank you Dr. Labaro!!

I brought my infant son to the Emergency Department after being referred from Urgent Care, and…read moreunfortunately our first interaction left a very negative impression. The RN at the reception desk, Diana S., did not provide the level of professionalism or courtesy I expected. The Urgent Care staff gave me a referral paper with my son's information and instructed me to hand it to the Emergency Department staff. When I handed the paper to her, she did not look at it and instead began asking me questions about my own medical history, including my allergies. My infant son was right next to me in his stroller, and I had to interrupt to explain that he--not I--was the patient. Had the referral paper been reviewed, it would have been clear that I was the mother and my infant son was the patient. The most upsetting moment was when a gust of wind blew the referral paper onto her side of the desk. She picked it up, crumpled it into a ball, and threw it into the trash without saying a word. Since Urgent Care had specifically instructed me to hand that paper to the Emergency Department, seeing it immediately discarded without any explanation was shocking. As a mother bringing my infant to the ER, I was already scared and worried. This interaction made me feel deeply disrespected. Patients and their families deserve to be treated with basic courtesy, especially when they are seeking emergency care for a sick child.
