Saker Nada

I hate writing three star reviews because it looks like a mediocre experience, but in this instance, they were truly A-​OK – nothing that ever knocked my socks off but nothing notably egregious, either.
My son was rarely sick, but when we needed to get in, we were always able to get an appointment. His regularly scheduled check-​ups went well. The singular waiting room is a bit small so you can’t really escape if there’s a sick kid in there (or if you brought a sick kid).
They went through a few nurses during our two years there, and some were better than others. The note-​taking/​note-​reading sometimes lacked, as they scared me to death with questions one visit, asking me all these developmental questions about what my son could do and I kept answering no, no, no, and they were getting really concerned… which got me freaked out. Come to find out, they thought my son was 2.5 when he was only 1.5 (yes he’s big for his age, but his age is in the file, it was just read wrong).
Dr. Saker was nice enough overall, though we didn’t quite mesh on some issues… but I consider that mostly my fault since we didn’t interview a lot of pediatricians beforehand, we just went with who my OBGYN recommended. If I didn’t like what she told me, I just shook my head in agreement then ignored it once I left the office (I’m sorry, telling me that my toddler needs to lose a few pounds – when he’s perfectly proportioned, he’s just big for his age – is ridiculous). That said, she always took the time to answer all my questions and she was always nice and gentle with my son.
I wouldn’t NOT recommend this office, but I also wouldn’t tell you to steer clear. I would definitely visit and see if you feel comfortable.
