Report
Called this place to establish care and get a second opinion. They told me the doctor has to read the report before scheduling an appointment. After 2 weeks I got a call from her office that Dr. Kojic reviewed my childs report and decided that she was not going to see him and suggested taking him to an epileptic doctor! Why??? when that wasnt even the first diagnose I got! But she cant even sit with me and talk about why she thinks he should be seen by an epileptic doctor because hes not her patient! But the whole reason was to establish a new neurologist doctor but they said no to

I hardly write a review and when I do its because I really feel I need to. I am very grateful to our PCP for referring us here. Todays visit was beyond my expectations. Dr. Kojic is a sweet, caring and knowledgeable physician. I left feeling confident and happy with the treatment plan for my son. She took her time to listen and observe my son and was very proactive, she doesnt waste any time. I also want to thank Courtney, one of the ARPNs, you were AMAZING and really made a difference in our visit. I am very grateful. I felt listened to for the first time in a long time, you paid attention

My son spent nearly 8 years with Child Neurology and they were there for us through thick and thin. Nick was amazing with administering EEGs, and had a wonderful relationship with our family. Dr. Courtney answered all our questions during our appointments and helped us with next steps. Dr. Kojic is extremely knowledgeable and helped us through some very difficult times when we first started our journey. The office staff is exceptional, as well. I highly recommend Child Neurology!

My daughter has been coming here since she was seven months old (shes five now). Dr. Kojic and her ARNPs are incredible and knowledgeable. Their desk staff are all super sweet and helpful. If I ever need to leave a message for the doctor or one of the ARNPs, they always return it the same day. Nick, the EEG tech, is so friendly and my daughter adores him. I really cannot say enough good things about this practice, and Im so grateful my precious girl is in their care!
