Your trust is our top concern.

We strive to keep reviews honest, trustworthy, and fair.

Doctors can not pay for good reviews, nor can they pay to have negative reviews removed.

We monitor all reviews to ensure they comply with our guidelines and don’t include personal information, profanity, libel, defamation, harassment, obscenity or fraud.

Any reviews that are deemed fraudulent or violate our guidelines will be removed immediately.

All reviews are confirmed and audited before publication, and community members have the ability to flag inappropriate content for further review by our team.

This man's bedside manner is the worst I have ever seen. Spent 10 minutes with my son walked out said he wanted to look at his xrays and never came back received no answers to our questions and had the audacity to roll his eyes and me and my family when we even tried to speak. Do not I repeat do not send your child to this man for anything. Needless to say I will be heading to Riley Hospital to get the answers we need .

I waited months for my daughter to see him. She had fainted at theater, never been sick in her life, but could not walk again without fainting, BP was crashing, breathing going out,circulation poor, legs going numb, She had many surgeries, test and drugs with top doctors, but then she was told it was in her mind by pediatrition. The well was poisoned and Dr. Schikler followed suit. He walked in, looked at her with eyes, and said,Its Anxiety! I took her to Cinc.Childrens Hosp. in heart failure.
