Dr. Dillinger is the worst Dr. I've ever visited in my life. At first we put up with her fake attitude and condescending nature, poor answers to our questions and misleading facts. After 3 visits we changed to another dr here, Hamilton who we visited once and she was good. Our baby had a bad skin problem so we had to take him back and Dr Dillinger was the only one available. She was extra nasty and condescending, when a family member who is in medicine listened in and commented on speaker phone she stormed out of the room saying she warned us not to call (she hadn't ) I told her "f off" as she stormed away in a tantrum.

She came back and asked if I was talking to her, I said yeah it's like $300 a visit and you can't handle basic stuff. She said she was getting us banned from the place. We never wanted to see her again anyways, awful person. Never have I seen such unprofessional condescending behavior and I hope no one else has to go through it. Stay away from her.

Love all the doctors. The staff is amazing. Sad to say my daughter will age out of the office soon. Very blessed to have had them care for my daughter.

We moved to Child Care Consultants 3 years ago and we could not be more pleased. Everyone is so nice and so helpful and we never feel rushed. The office returns phone calls promptly, appointments aren't scheduled weeks out, and they do vaccinations in office- something that can be difficult to find without private insurance. We're so happy to finally have a good pediatrician to go to. Highly recommend.
