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.

If you are looking for a pediatrician RUN and look elsewhere now! I have found Dr. Inkeles to be very inattentive to me and my wife's concerns and questions about our newborn daughter. Her personality is caustic and she has the warmth and care of sawdust. When my wife posed some questions that required Dr Inkeles to elaborate (she was vague and abrupt in her responses) she sighed and appeared agitated as if we were asking ridiculous questions when they were appropriate and necessary. She will talk over and down to you and will only go into exhaustive detail about the things she's interested in or has an agenda for. She is very judgmental if you’re doing anything other than nursing from the breast. This second appt with her left us with more questions than answers and was a total waste of our time. Find someone who gives a damn.

She’s kind thorough and diagnosed my sons pneumonia when he was 2. She treats correctly, based on evidence based medicine and I value that in today’s retail medicine environment!

Dr. Inkeles has been my children's pediatrician for nearly 12 years. Dr. Inkeles provides excellent medical care and we have complete confidence in her medical opinion, guidance, diagnosis and treatment decisions. We would highly recommend her.
