This is an appaling example of slander on the internet. It should be actionable. I was a pateint and witness to the event about which mpoods is writing. The mother was totally inappropriate, yelling, screaming, ignoring her daughter and the effects that her mood instability were causing on her daughter's care. Dr. Ziegner was calm and professional, trying to assure mom that she would see the child, but that she needed mom to stop yelling first and for her to wait her turn for evaluation. The child had a mild case of hives with no airway problems and did not need immediate attention. Dad even tried to get mom to wait outside so that the child could be seen. Mom went out, then came back in screaming at the receptionist, Dr. Ziegner and the whole office. The child could not be seen because mom was behaving wildly inappropriately and would not allow it to occur in a professional manner. Dr. Ziegner finally recommended the pt to go to the ER to be seen since the mother was refusing care in Riviera Allergy. As an eye witness, I would urge you to disregard mpoods review. For my own review, this was my first appointment with Dr. Ziegner and I was in no way disuaded from continuing it as she seemed to be purely an abused party who had maintained her cool in an excellent fashion. She was professional and very observant with me, and in my two visits, has earned my absolute respect as an MD. I can only hope that this slanderous review does not impact her practice. Even if you disregard my eye-witness review, I would hope our two reviews cancel out and you give a great doc a try. (they are hard to find and I'd hate to see people missing out because of blatant falsehoods). \r
Again, I have no relationship or loyalty to Dr. Ziegner other than as an appreciative patient and one who is appalled at this misrepresentation of the facts
Pros: clean environment, specialist who seems to listen and care, friendly staff
