NO STARS!!!!! Shlafer is rude, predujiced, egotistical and completely incompetent....remove your children from his care!! \r
\r
Dr Shlafer is an incompetent, inappropriate douchebag. Both of my children were patients, about 10 years now, and even though they BOTH asked MORE than 1 time, against my better judgement, I chose to allow them to see him.... examples: Many times he didn't even fully enter the room to properly evaluate my children before writing a script for an antibiotic AND Shlafer has put my son on ""the Z-pak"" so many times he is now allergic to it and much, much stronger antibiotics need to be used on him when he needs them..........Also........My son is 6'2'' football player, last 3 visits the ""dr"" asked him what position he plays and when he said he plays 'wide receiver and tight end' this ""educated Dr.'' replied to my son, ""You do realize that you're WHITE, right?? My son was sooo embarrassed........all 3 times it happened!!\r
\r
Soo...\r
I realized this morning that my 16 1/2 yr old son had a well-child visit that we had missed, having NEVER recieved any type of reminder, including a card the day we were in the office and made the well-child appt, no reminder card given to us.........\r
\r
Upon realizing this I called to find out when the appt was, schedule a new one and ask why I never received a reminder call. His extremely rude staff interuptted me several times on the phone going on and on about how it has NEVER been their policy to make reminder calls!! ! (This is ridiculous!! I understand no reminder for someone who scheduled a day before but no call about a ONCE A YEAR appt that was made over a month earlier is a very LAZY and selfish policy!!) Then she put me on hold and ANOTHER person came on and told me that if I didn't like the ""Dr's"" policies, I should seek care for him elsewhere!!!!!\r
\r
WTF!!! I told her if she and her colleauge would shut up long enough, I only wanted to schedule my sons well child appt and even apologized that I was unaware of 'THEIR"" policies and I thought they should at least hear my opinion about it......was put on hold AGAIN!! and that incompetent, rude excuse of a ""Doctor"" told his staff to tell me he would not see my son, unless he was sick and only the next 30 days, and refused to perform my child's well-check, telling my to find a new provider!!!\r
\r
I will tell anyone who will listen about the poor care and service received under Dr Shlafer's care........\r
\r
I will add that I'm ashamed of myself for not listening to my kids and my own heart, should have parted ways with his incompetent practice YEARS AGO!!!!!
