Pediatric Review:
Everyone is always so friendly. Dr. Shammas or Annalisia are my recommendations!! The problem is that they are short staffed and being spread SUPER thin. Wait times are pretty long but the quality of care is great from the ladies listed above. The office staff is phenomenal! Always friendly and accommodating. My son loves seeing Dr. Shammas. Very personable and knowledgeable!

Weve been going here for the last three years since we moved back to FL. I was so excited when I found Gliset after so many bad experiences with pediatricians for my son! She was like a breath of fresh air! Fast forward three years and my daughter was born and I got scheduled ASAP with her as soon as I could get in to see Gliset. Well, now my baby girl is 9m old and my son 10 and I was SO looking forward to seeing her at their checkup the beginning of this month - to only find out she isnt there anymore!! I know its for good things but MAN. Im gonna miss seeing

Dr. Jacobs was wonderful. My daughter had an appointment with him and he was so pleasant from the start. He spoke to her directly and asked her questions so she could respond. He explained the importance of treatment and prescriptions. He was on top of what she needed and transferred the info to the correct people for additional support. The only thing that could be approved upon would be the checkout process. At checkout, the lady asked to schedule follow up and for my copay and then tried dismissing us for day. I was still waiting on prescriptions and referral information. It couldve been

If youre looking for a pediatrician you can trust and is compassionate, Hollie Saylor PA is the the one to see! Weve been seeing her for awhile and we love her. The medical staff here are excellent and informative. Dr. Hollie is sweet, welcoming, professional, understanding and loves to educate. I trust her judgment and my daughter is always comfortable around her. Shes perfect for young kiddos and is easy to talk with. Best pediatrician Ive ever met.
