Whatever you do, do not take your child to Dr. Gettleman. I have never received such rude treatment in my life. He may have a good beside manner with children; however, if you don't do things HIS way he gets very nasty. He actually tried to tell me that I needed to quit breastfeeding my 13 month old son because ""If I don't cut him off now, he'll never stop nursing"". Apparently he is not familiar with the World Health Organizations recommendation to breastfeed for at least the first 2 years of life. Do not waste your time on a doctor that employs scare tactics to get you to do things his way, it just isn't worth it.
Pros: good beside manner with children
Cons: rude, employs scare tactics, does not follow recommendations of the WHO, anti-breastfeeding
